good video!

Awesome video man

So after owning and running the Mach Z for a few months now, I don't have an issue with power. My issue is traction. Whatever surface I am on, when I peg the throttle to the bar it just shreads whatever surface I am on, especially ice. I have $700 sleds beating me in a drag race. I have 144 1.450 studs in it. The best i get is on the ground surface where I get better bite. What is the answer? Clutching??

How much hp will a stroker kit net you over stock everything else being equal?

[@kylejackson2823]

John, you really know your 💩!! Very knowledgeable.

[@gregschultz209]

So theoretically could you upgrade the mach z the the rr pistons? A drop in mod?

[@JohnWSRD]

Technically yes, we actually made pistons at the lower compression that are much stronger just for replacing stock pistons for little lower compression.

[@snowasian]

How much more stroke is this crank vs the 2022 mach Z crank? Are you using shorter rods or a shorter pin height? What's the new displacement? Thanks 👍

[@JohnWSRD]

@@snowasian for this combo stock rod length with a drop in compression height, we do have combos that drop rod length and move comp height. We will be right under 950cc with stock bore.

[@snowasian]

@@JohnWSRD Very exciting, thank you for your reply.

[@edge7074]

So you are saying the engine is junk?

[@whalensspeed]

Not at all, no. Its just the "RR" engine is just has better features (as described in the video). We assumed it would have the same engine has the Can-Am X3's. Just a surprise.

[@cboutdoorfun9955]

So in this stroker are you going to use RR pistons or factory machine/r pistons?

[@JohnWSRD]

We will go over all that in the next video.

[@pinchnloaf]

250 miles on my new Mach. Posted it for sale. It’s just too slow.

[@whalensspeed]

Dang, that's a bummer.

[@Dooguy]

why is that bearing in the rod so worn already with only 5 miles on the engine. Odd

[@whalensspeed]

Built on a Monday, maybe?

[@pinchnloaf]

Why a stroker? They recently too low as it is
