      I live in Cali and could give to shits about sleds. I’ve never even seen one in person. But this is good stuff. It looks fun. Everyone knows the best part of winter is watching it on tv in sunny California while drinking a margarita on the beach.

      I am Canadian, a lot of teenagers buy a sled before they buy a truck or a car here. I never tried a high performance side by side and I may never get to ride one but it sure looks like fun. I grew up on atv's, and sleds, learned how to wrench on them and did a lot of fun things with them and met a lot of great people along the way.@@sxsoutlaws2666

    True story: in 1993 I just got out of college. (Kentucky). Came back home to Minnesota. Sleds were huge at this time period around here. I signed with the Buffalo bills. I spent my signing bonus on a new (carry over) 92 vmax4. It was beautiful. I thought about that sled so much during training camp that they cut me from the team and let me be with my sled forever. And that’s my grand casino story!

    That is a very unique sled. Arctic cat had one of the first 4 cylinders:1971 Arctic Cat King Kat 800 which was also pretty badass especially for back then.

    • @glenmallory9982

      Officially clocked at 103 mph in factory testing on grass in 1970. The 1971 King Kat 800 featured the four cylinder free air two stroke Kawasaki with four carbs four tuned pipes and no mufflers. It was an 800 class oval racer. Made one year. Less than 150 built.

    Those sound awesome with the quad pipes. PSI offered two sets for the 800`s..one has internal stingers, and the other does not. The ones with no internal stingers, would be the PSI mods. They are lake pipes. The others were the trail version (internal stingers) so they would be quite a bit quieter. Bender also made more than one set of pipes. The quad performance pipes were stamped and the formula III pipes were sectional and welded. Aeen made sectional pipes also but they were a grand back then from what I remember, they were loud but not as loud as the PSI mods. You have to spin the engine at 10k with them and weld the crank pins. The stock 800 ignition box has a 10k rev limiter not sure about the 750 one though. They give around 18hp on the 750 and 15hp on the 800.

    • @robertfrancis6967
      @robertfrancis6967 9 місяців тому

      Just mentioned that to another recent VMAX 4 owner that he needs a set of quad stingers as there is nothing that sounds that awesome quad pipes just resonate power as they have a rapid fire bark that you can feel like the report of a large firework you can actually feel that there is some serious bite behind their bark

    • @davidbrennan5
      @davidbrennan5 9 місяців тому

      You could tell when one of those sleds was coming, very unique sound with pipes. Clutching from factory was not good, they are thirsty and fairly heavy. They worked best on hardpack on a lake, not something you want to ride all day. They need tweaking and some mods but can be monsters after some work is done. I know a guy who put a garrett turbo on one and put mod pipes on it and it was wicked fast 200+hp. It would twist up a crank if a belt blew. 3 or 4 cylinder 2 strokes with pipes sound the best by far imho. @@robertfrancis6967

    • @1953fords
      @1953fords 8 місяців тому +1

      If you are to put 800 pipes on a 750 you should really consider welding the cranks. Just adding them pipes and the HP it added for some reason the 750 bottom end didn’t like it. I had 5 Vmaxs over time. My imp stock 800 had a custom gear reduction. These would turn 10,000-10,400 but the clutch couldn’t turn that fast. So the custom gear reduction fixed that and changed power curve. My sled back 20 years ago was making 230Hp full Pat Hauck Engine / clutching and howler pipes. Sled was brand new and turned into a racer from day one. I really miss that sled. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    being in the sand dunes, the filter won’t get dusty. It’s when you get in the dusty Rhodes that the dust will make it through a filter especially the canon that’s why they have to be oil charged but then if you get crazy you fill your intake full of oil, and that causes a ton of problems sticky throttle blades, core idle ,stalls. You should get a pre-filter. It’s just a wrap covers your existing filter.

    I never knew those Vmax-4 sleds were so rare. I Alway kinda wanted one. My friend found one in 2006 a red one and it only had like 300kms here in Canada. It was the same as brand new. I remember one night in my garage he was putting a stinger muffin that he bought that was custom build of a race v4. It didn’t fit through the belly pan of his sled because the sled it was built to fit had a bent chassis. Well let’s just say I gave him the grinder to cut that hole. I personally couldn’t do it.

    Those vmax 4s are cool. But its hard to believe a 92 ski doo mach 1 X with a 670cc rotax twin beat the big 4 banger at the eagle river championship.
