I put a cat roller on my mxz 600 and was wondering why I can't pull similar setup compared to the cat 600.
Is it because of the gearing?
I am geared at 24/43,(1.79 stock) and I know the gearing on the cats are higher and still getting big top speed #'s with big angles on the helix.I was wondering if someone could explain to me why this is without bashing the crap out of me.
Are the drivers on the cats a different diameter than the doo and that is why the cats can run the higher gearing and pull the bigger angled helixes?...thanks for any help and please no bashing

What set-up did you try, a friend has a 2002 zl 600 efi and his secondary has a 53 deg helix and a red spring in the middle hole. I assume you are using the TRA drive clutch, they are quite adjustable I ran a 96 formula SS for 11000 miles before the crank let go, there were 2 things I hated about the Ski-doo, the primers and the secondary clutch, when you get it tuned I think you will love it. Ask mikadoo for help on setting up your drive clutch he has probably forgot more than most will ever know about ski-doo clutching. :D
