Hey,
Am relatively new to the sledding world. Just bought a 2003 mxz 800 rev and it is stock.
It has a 121" track. I want to upgrade to a 136" with 1.5" paddles. Gonna have to get rid of the beavertail too.
Also, thinking about switching out exhaust and what size riser block to put on(am 6'2")?
Any suggestions on what i need would be awesome. Like i said, am clueless on what i need to do.
Thanks

Hey there, I have an 03 MXZ 800R, not Rev though. I'm currently changing out the color to pink for the wife.

I know the carb boots are pron to tearing you should upgrade to v-force or boysen reeds which come with better carb boots.

also make sure you put a longer cooler on when you do the beaver tail delete/track extension or it will overheat.

How much you pay for it bruce? I paid $4,200 for my Adrenaline 2 seasons ago which included a new track and engine.

Didn't get as good a deal as you....$4500 CDN. Still good for where I am though-Newfoundland. Gonna cost to do what I want to do...oh well, be able to do what I want i guess. Only 3500 Miles, was only trail ridden....trying to make myself feel better, lol.

That is pretty low mileage for a 2003, my 04 800 X has over 12000 kms and we paid $4k for it last year so don't feel bad. The mileage shows and I have some cracks in the tunnel that need attention but it's a hoot to ride!

Pretty agressive plans but sounds like it will be a great ride when done! Keep us posted.....
