Excellent sled but the fuel gauge sucks!

I do 119 miles and I got three bars left and sometimes starting to flash fuel I fill it up my sled and I put 30 litres and I still have 10 more litres in my tank so your good to make between 150 to 160 miles with a tank.

I talked with the guys from Arctic Cat the other day about the fuel gauges and they said that is the way they were made to work. The reason being is that they don't want people to be too far away from a fuel stop when they are very low on fuel.

Yay for engineers again.
Wouldn't it be better to actually KNOW how much gas you have left ????????

Gotta love the way some minds think!!!!

Mbrp can is sweet sounding and uber easy to install

bought a bikeman straight lite can, man what a b*tch to put on, didn't fit for ****, the bottom bracket the spring goes to makes no sense, had to do some cutting and also i order the can with one bung, got the can with 2 bungs, so had to go buy a plug which isn't a big deal, but god d@mn you would think if you spend 3 bills on a can it would go on by itself, other than this it sounds awesome it has a very aggresive deep sound, never heard a 4 stroke like it, also makes the turbo sound better!

I have been very happy with the d&d stage 1 can, 6-10 hp gain (depending on stock or not), 10 lb weight savings, little louder than stock, and very well put together kit for $400 new. I've heard the speedwerx can and you get a bit of a drone like with the straight pipe but they claim the same hp as the straight pipe on a stock machine.
