the M7 comes with extroverts so you do not need to add them. I tried to flip the track the night before a ride and chickened out of pulling the DD apart or prying the shaft out on the brake side. But everything I have read says flipping the track is easy.
I have no idea why anyone would want carbs anymore. The EFI is just so sweet and has lots of mod potential. EFI has made it possible to make reliable 2stk turbos, and can be tuned so much easier than a carb. Step into the future. Get an EFI sled you will look back at the days of choke and priming with the same fondness as boggie wheels and leaf spring front suspension.[/b]
I want the carbed one cuz I was told by a few people that have had both and said the carbed ones are the way to go. Not as rich and better throtle response... Do the M8's come with both???

but the carb 800 are cc for cc the most powerful sled in the valley


i have heard that from a few people... I think its why Ski-doo still runs carbs on there 800's... I am just having a tuff time finding a cabed 06 M7... All I can find are EFI one's tho??? I'm sure the EFI's are great sleds, but I dont realy want to have to spend all kinds of sheott on Boondocker boxes and all kinds of other stuff to make it ez to adjust.. bang your head . When I could just get carbs and spend all that money on clutching and jetting and maybe a can and other goodies...??? If I cant find one by next wknd? i'm just gonna keep my summit and look next year for an M Thanks for the responses tho guys...

Sorry but don't know what you guys are smoking but there is no difference between a throttle body injection efi system and a carburator in how the engine itself is designed. Cat dropped the carbs because they can't consistently meet EPA regs in all temp and elevation condtions with a carb. A carb might run right on any given day if its been tuned to that exact temp and elevation but when you change 3000ft of elevation and 30degrees throughout a day the EFI is going to perform consistently throughout all thoose ranges but hey thats just my opinion. There was a few people making carb conversions for the efi cat sleds might look into that as the new 800 and 1000s don't come in carbed and they only made 700 carbeds in 06 and I know very few dealers even ordered them. Sorry not much help if you do find a carbed for sale it should be cheap most dealers in my area won't even trade in a carbed sled anymore or if they do it will be for 1000 less then a efi sled.[/b]
EPA yes... But I dont know of a sleder that changes elevation more than a few hundered feet to maybe a thousand in a day...??? I know how to work a carb and have been doing it for a long time. So all I asked was if anyone basically new where I could find a carbed 06 M7??? Thats it... I realy didnt want to have to buy this and buy that and modify the wheel to have an M7 perform like I want it too... Sorry if i'm being a dick? But I know what I want. But If I cant get one? i would consider a EFI... But I would rather put cash into my new M and my summit... Thanks for the 411 tho... I doo see where everyone is comming from.
