I have the 450 and can beat the 400 kodiak, also outrun a rubicon, not to mention the 450 foreman, the kodiaks are pretty fast but have power where needed in low to mid range. I know your not getting beat by a 400cc are you?

My Kodiak 450 pulled 90 klm/hr the other day down hill with a wind behind me on a sanded icey road. I mean it touched 90 klm/hr for a second or two. I just want the bike to run into its power band. I know in the past with any snow machine I purchaced ,ski doo, Yamaha exciter, polaris xlt , that were all belt driven, the factory could not get the cluching right. Im shure that in this case the kodiak is the same. The snowmobiles are 2 strokes and these 4 strokes are a new thing to me. The bike will over rev in lower speeds and boggs in higher speeds. Weight's ,ramp's,and springs, primary,or secondary, what way do you go?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
