The Matryx and Axys 650, 850 and 900 are great sleds, but the factory clutch alignment specs are too broad for optimal clutching efficiency. If you want perfect clutch alignment on one of these sleds you need the help of TRS Performance and their adjustable motor mounts and alignment bar.
Polaris Axys/Matryx throttle block

Mountain snowmobile brake component protection
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Год назад
With all the snowmobile manufacturers going to lighter weight plastic brake parts, they are naturally not as strong as the metal ones they replaced and can easily be damaged on a mountain sled. We look at brake handle and master cylinder protection on your skidoo, Polaris, Cat and Yamaha mountain sled. The last thing you want is to ride your sled in the back country without brakes.
Polaris Matryx DIY tunnel cut

Polaris introduced the all new Matryx mountain sled for 2022. Tunnel redesign with the tapered extension was a welcome new design to help deep snow performance. How much the tunnel drags behind you in the snow can be a detriment to the skilled mountain rider and cutting length off the tunnel has become a common modification. Now that the tunnel coolers don't run all the way back on the Matryx, ...

Polaris Axys and Matryx clutch alignment DIY
Thanks for doing these types of videos! I just upgraded from the XM chassis to the Gen 5 and these help me get familiar with the new layout. I do all my own maintenance, so it is nice to get tips and tricks on getting things apart.
Great video. The only thing I would add is the 6 tower came out in '04, not '05. It also had two flavors; the early "SAE" version was bulletproof; I have over 10k on one, and it's all original (trail sled). They switched to a metric version around '07, and it's just not as good. I'm pretty sure they started manufacturing them overseas as well, which is probably the real reason for the quality, not the fact that it went metric.
This is the best instructional video for the QRS clutch removal that I have ever seen! Bravo Sir! Thanks for taking the time.
Thank you! Hope it helped you out
This work for p22
Yes, there is a new alignment bar that works for the p-85 and p-22
Just wondering if you plan on a follow up video on the results of testing on different tuner, would be great to get some real world results
Thanks for the info. A quick question. I’ve heard the the internal battery doesn’t last very long when the sled is turn off . What has been your experience with battery life ? Did you purchase another cradle with a DC charger to charge it indoors ? Thanks for your help.
Great video, but what additional recommendations do you have for installing these on a 2019 Arctic Cat Hardcore sled?
Its the throttle safety switch
Coastal low mountain riding so not always powder ...in champagne powder choice would be different...
This is a great video thank you. Makes me wonder what Poo engineers are doing. Seems like a lot of gross negligence oversight recently 😢
Do you have to turn it on separately every time you start the sled? Have you had to roll your sled out with the bar set up yet?
Why would my 2ndary clutch not be responding to adjustments? Belt is super loose and its not adjusting..
Belt too worn or wrong belt? Maybe your adjuster is stripped? Also seen the bolts for the helix come loose and/or brake off.
Running peak 2.5 in NL - works good in our conditions and seems fairly tough
The Camso peak track has been out for a good 10 years. Came on some Yamaha mountain sleds back when Yamaha actually made their own sleds. It never really caught on to be a very popular track. I’m glad you like it
Great video. Are there many track options for sleds with 2.86 pitch drivers, or is a guy better off changing drivers? If changing drivers, would you recommend 3.0 pitch or 3.5 pitch drivers?
Composit makes a number of their tracks in 2.86” pitch. Here’s a link to their mountain tracks, you can see which style and lengths come in 2.86. compositsnowmobiletracks.com/tracks-by-types/mountain-snowmobile-tracks/
well glad i dont have to worry bout that w my p22
Everyone still have to worry about it. Every bolt available is still breaking, Ti as well as steel.
I have CE Saw 2.5, love that track for more setup snow here in norway. But sometimes lugs are abit short in more powdery deeper snow. Do you think a M700 will be a good compromise?
Yes, I think it would be a great track for your conditions. For anyone who doesn’t want or need a 3” track. Riding half powder and half more set up snow it’ll be very good.
@@mountainsleddergarage8627 thx for reply! Appreciate it.
Here we are in 2024 and bolts are still breaking left and right
Bolts will most likely continue to break until the clutch is redesigned or round filed. The entire clutch is held together by the bolt. No other snowmobile clutch has this poor design. Like the P-85, needs to be held together by a screw on and torqued spider and jam nut.
Thanks
great video thanks for the info. Catalyst looks like an awesome sled
Great tutorial
One problem that happened today on another sled. 2020 850 pro. The mount was loose, we tightened the lower bolt but was throttling really high and mount still loose. Would this fixit
If you’re asking if an aftermarket throttle block would fix it. Without out actually seeing your sled and problem, can’t say 100% for sure, but it most likely would fix it. There’s so much snow and ice build up in the factory Polaris block, csn mess with your idle and TSS.
Seems like a safety feature that can get you stranded out in the woods . Just one extra thing to go wrong , A tether is all anyone needs !
Great through video! Appreciate you taking time to go through this in detail.
Thank's, good video
2015 zr rr 8000 primary clutch help making noise after belt blew
Will this setup working on my 2018 thundercat ZR9000 998turbo?
Yes, you can put an adapt clutch on your 18’ zr 9000. Make sure you get an adapt clutch from a current 998, I believe the crank taper on the 2-strokes is different.
Great video. Well done.
Are you not installing the damper ring on the new adpative clutch? I thought it was recommended even on the new adaptive clutch. Thank you for all your great videos!
That is the question of the century. Cat has had that ring on there for many years. People have been taking them off for many years without any issues. If I’m building a lightweight sled I’ll take it off, otherwise I don’t go to the trouble of removing it. The clutch in the video was brand new out of the box and don’t come with the ring.
Thank you! I know it serves a purpose if you have an electric start on your machine as the ring is required, but I didn't see the reason behind the damper ring unless it was for some clutch weight thing. I didn't want to not install it on my new adaptive clutch if I was going to mess something up by omitting it. Glad to hear you didn't install it and have not had any issues. Thanks again!
Great instructions. clearly communicated. good job on the video, we will be watching for more from you. Thank you.
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback
Awsome tutorial as usual, Great work,
Thanks!!
This was a very helpful video for me learning about my 2012 F800 clutch it look exactly like the M series. Iv got everything apart in the middle of the season because the weights were not letting my clutch disengaging even at lower speeds. My weights are beat up! Think im gonna upgrade to a team clutch if i can. Thank you for the video. Ill be rewatching a couple times
Glad it was helpful!
Whats dry weight
Can't believe I didn't add the dry weigh in the video. No gas and no 2-stroke oil, catalyst was 434lbs. My 2023 9R 155 with 2.75" track was 429lbs dry on the same scale.
Is this valid for mountain and trail sleds? Does polaris change specs for the two different applications?
Honestly, I don't work on any trail sleds, we just don't have them out west. I will say, the TRS alignment bar does it a little different than the Polaris specs, mush tighter tolerances.
Excellent video. I’ve got a 2010 Sno Pro, bought used several years ago. It doesn’t have a tether. Not sure if it was removed, or if Cat sold them without back then. Thinking about adding a tether to the bars, but I don’t know if it’s gonna be a hassle…
Cat didn’t start doing factory tether until the alpha in 2019. Cat sells a plug and play tether for older sleds, or you can buy aftermarket
Great video. Thanks!
Great video did you just hook the red wire from the sled to the red wire on the voyager pro and then the Brown wire to Black on the voyager pro
Would you have to take the pipe off and the little tin shield to change the trottle cable on and arctic cat?
Not sure what cat you are working on. The ascender has a throttle cable adjustment on the cable on the front right side of the sled, right where the cable goes under the ECU heat shield.
Do you have a part number for the male auxiliary power adapter by chance?
Sorry meant female adapter
for Polaris or skidoo? The one to plug into the factory accessory plug?
@@richardmaxwell1433 Polaris rmk pro 850? 2020
Can i use the adapt front clutch on my 16zr9000 ?
I’m not 100% in the know on that. Is the 16’ 9000 still the cat 1100 turbo motor, is it the Yamaha motor?
Why can't I just take the clutch off the jack shaft and service it?
I wish it was that simple like polaris&cat. You can buy a jackshaft and clutch that allow you to do that. Most, but not all, skidoo jackshafts and secondary clutches are one unit.
Hello, I am having trouble finding a set of rolers for my 2006 Summit 800 HO X secondary clutch. (3 roler style) Do you know what the material is that these rolers are made of. Looking to get a set manufactured as I can't find them in Canada.
I don’t know what they are made of. I think each brand makes them a little different. Have you tried Fett brothers?
Great video! About to do mine... What's the length of the hexhead bolts? Thank you...
Top notch tutorial
Thanks!
Very informative. I’d love the buddy tracking for my Gen 5 but the hassle of the power wiring and charging plus no speedometer makes this product a no-go for me. I would have thought Trail Tech would jump on engineering and manufacturing a plug and play solution for the Gen 5, especially since there is an obvious market opportunity.
It’s replacing the ascender Not pro-climb
Are the 16-17/18 clutches interchangeable? The moveable sheave on my 18 cracked, and I found a cheap 16-17 locally
Yes, you can use a 16/17 clutch on an 18’.
@mountainsleddergarage8627 anything else need to be changed to do that?
What air pressure did you set all the shocks to after installing the kit?
Great video. Looking forward to part 2 !
Keep in mind, 3/4 - 5/8 track tension is not the recommendation for trail sleds... which should be 7/8 - 1 1/8 inches.
Mostly the video was intended for mountain sleds, but good to know the trail sleds are different.
Thanks for refresh
