That sled looks great! I'm happy to hear that you guys were able to help Mike with the Pipes. We need to do a triple ride sometime, now that my 650 is back in action. We could have a meeting over some beers some night and figure it out.
Chubby chaser is a beautiful beast of a machine.... would love to ride that thing Ok who am I kidding I would love to ride any of those beautiful machines !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice work Mike
My 1997 Polaris Indy storm ... is the straight up Indy storm 800 ... 800 printed by Polaris on the seat near the snow flap ... it's that one ... it's hard to find... that one you have there is nice...
I have a '00 and '01 XCR 800's. Stretched one out to136" and I'm going to do the same with the '00. Love your sleds and thanks for all the video's; I've learned a lot from you. Thanks
Love you're channel.. love the sleds ..I've got 4 Polaris myself..2 twins and 2 triples and I so badly want to tare them apart and rebuild them one at a time so I know what I have.. and maybe pick up a few products the you've shown on your channel.. like the bag that sits on the top of the dash above the gages..that's handy to have.. take guys and I'm watching you from canada 🇨🇦
Great video Todd!!! But I got a question for ya if you don't mind answering, a guy has a 97 xlt that's always stubborn as all hell to get started but once she's going she runs like a top, what do you think would be causing the starting issue??
I think I watched all your videos of the triples. I have two 91 rxls and just picked up a 97 storm with a slp skid extension 136”. I checked the compression and reading 100 psi across the board. Should I open it up and re-ring it or run her?
Well the ride was fantastic, asides from the connecting rod going about 1/4 mile from the truck. Was neat seeing you guys on the trail while I was being towed back 😅 3 fingers looks even better in person.
Hey how’s it going? My father the other day gave me his 97 storm 800 triple. It’s been sitting since 2012 he got it in early 2000’s I’m wondering if you would have or know someone with parts for it? I’m in northern Michigan. Since he gave it to me my childhood sled I’ve been on edge about getting it going again and getting it fixed up. Need a seat new hood windshield and so on. I’m doing a full on restoration. Body and so on is solid. Any help will be very much appreciated. I’d love to get this sled fixed up and back to its original look and going again
must be nice to have your own water pump guy. I used to have trouble with those ultra pumps and the mechanics at the dealers did not have a clue. just told you to buy a new one.
I always ran my 99 xcr800 with the ignition switch on regular until I needed that extra juice. Just to be safe. Have over 10000 miles on it and never had to do any motor work. FYI I did a radar run with my 99xcr700 (had the 700 first). Full tank of 91 octane. First pull switch on regular 106 mph. 2nd pull switch on premium 111 mph.
@@toddclyne3493 if you used the polaris decoder it doesn't work right i got a 98 xc 700 and it comes back as a 98 rmk 600 but there's no proof of it being a 136 or longer so also got it from the original owner.
@@josephzimmer5586 so your local dealer sold tons of the 97 storm rmk model sled? Each dealer only got a couple to sell. Interesting that your dealer got tons of them to sell🤔
I've got a 96 sks and it's got the long seat as well you can fit a whole gallon of oil into it. Lots of room for stuff awesome machine mine has over 11000 miles on it and still pretty minty
That sound really brought me back to my teenage years. Thanks for the clip. 👍
You bet
I still have my Storm, I wish I had kept my 95 TCAT. My AC was a lot faster than my Storm.

Ok who am I kidding I would love to ride any of those beautiful machines !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice work Mike
Sled look awesome. Keep the trips alive. Salute to Todd, cold snacks and all the old triples
We save them all
That trailer is gonna be loaded heavy with nothing but classic coolness!😎👍👍👍😎
You bet it will be
Nice ride Mike you've got a nice start to you're collection.
He has a lot of nice sleds
Haha start?! I’m running out of room!!
2 90s muscle beautys loaded up!! Youll get some thumbs up on those bad boys for sure
I would think so 😁
That beast it's so sick!!!!! My goodness love that deep lug on the track Todd man she beautiful
Thanks man
Can’t wait till you get that Ultra spx sp going. I snow checked that one back in 1996 for the 97 year. Great vids guys Storms are going mint 👍 🍻🍻
The spx will be a fun project 😁
Another good test ride demonstrated by Trenton. “ Professional test rider “ and stunt man! 😂😂👍👍.
He's got the best job 😁
Another one saved. I did not know a storm rmk even existed. Nice sled.
Don't see many 😁
Beautiful sled! How does this compare to say an Arctic Cat Thundercat? Looks like a blast! Cheers!
Ace Friggin Freley!!!... Really nice!👍
🤣🤣🤣
Great machines! Super cool show.

It could be so many different things
@@toddclyne3493 my best bet is fuel because when I sit there and pull it for ages she'll fire up and run like a champ
Check or replace needle and seats I’ve had three sleds this year that I’ve had to replace them in and fixed the problem on all of them!
Tim the water pump rebuilder, how does a guy get ahold of him? Also need a new belt if you’ve got any leads on one.
Tim. precisionpumps@gmail.com or me at polaris.trashcan@gmail.com
Tim the water pump rebuilder, I have a 92 Polaris 440 with a leaky water pump. Does Tim rebuild this type?
Sorry he does not
Trent he has the best job he gets to test ride all of them
yes he does 🤣

100 is very low. I would try another gage first.
sweet sled love Trentons RXL just chilling up there love the color on that sled
Yes my favorite XLT color

Parts are hard to find. Good luck with the build
Hope you all have a good ride and a great time. Keep'em track side down and everyone come back safe. Enjoy!!
We sure will thanks 😁
Foam for the top of the airbox is a must have on the polaris.
Somewhat depends on the outside temp
Love that! Good work guys! Be safe and ride hard haha
Always thanks
Please make sure you tell Mike I said hi ... "for some reason"
sure will
Hello to you sir!
@@ducttapemike9250 hello back .. Mike
Wow u said it that's some big muscle 💪 right there 💪💪💪💪
Haha you got that right 😁
must be nice to have your own water pump guy. I used to have trouble with those ultra pumps and the mechanics at the dealers did not have a clue. just told you to buy a new one.
He builds them for everyone
If you could leave a note who he is and his phone number we have one to send to him
Hope you can help me. I have a 1997 700 ultra. The recoil cylinder is dead. I have spark fuel and 95ish psi
Low on compression needs rebuilding

Wow what a difference!! I was thinking about doing the same with the switch
@@toddclyne3493 As far as seat of the pants feel, I couldn't feel any difference on what position the switch was in except on the very top end.
Todd any chance that you can make a trash can for a Storm?
Would love to but just don't have the time right now
Got me to take out my 98 rmk this weekend. To much fun
Good to hear
👍👍
They're two strokes ... they are broken in about one minute upon start up. Ride it like you stole it.
I agree but if I did that I would get blasted by all the I know engines more than you!! 😁😁
I am a sucker for black sleds🤤
😁
Yo! Need some NEW triple VIDS please 🙏
Got sick as hell
Where does it identify as a rmk storm?
The model number
The model number right out of the Polaris dealers manual.
Love it!!!
Thanks man
Definitely not a rmk ( rocky mountain king) it would of been a sks (snow king special) and its neither just a plane storm
The model number on the tunnel indicates it as a RMK. Don't know what to say if you can't accept that.
@@toddclyne3493 if you used the polaris decoder it doesn't work right i got a 98 xc 700 and it comes back as a 98 rmk 600 but there's no proof of it being a 136 or longer so also got it from the original owner.
I have a 97 storm triple triple 2300 miles on it good shape.
Nice sled
thats greeaassy.

I love how triples sound. But don't like the lag they have.
Some have it some don't
This thing has zero lag! It comes out of the hole with skis in the air as soon as you touch the flipper!!
