Minneapolis, December 30, 2014- The King of the Hammers (KOH) is known as the toughest off-road race in the world, and this year, the person who conquers the course will not only go home with “The Hammer,” but also a brand-new, 2015 RZR XP 1000 EPS. As part of Polaris RZR being the official side-by-side of the race, Polaris sweetened the deal by offering up a RZR XP 1000 EPS to the Pro Class side-by-side winner. Last year, 26 side-by-sides would vie for “The Hammer” with five-time Hammers Winner Mitch Guthrie winning in his RZR XP 1000 EPS.

The Arctic Cat product development team is on a roll! A few years back, they introduced the incredible Wildcat 1000 Side x Side, followed by a four-seat version, and last year they rolled out our favorite trail loving Side x Side, the Wildcat Trail.

Few riders begin their life of off-road adventures as an adult. Most were first dipped in the world of riding when they were young and every trail led to exploration and every lap around a backyard track delivered a thrill that could be found nowhere else. For many it began as a family affair, with friends or relatives that made the world a little bigger and more filled with wonder. Once tasted, that feeling would never go away.

Pro-Tec has available a high performance / high flow Moflow airbox lid for the Suzuki LTZ400 & Kawasaki KFX400 (all model years). Designed to increase intake airflow and reduce intake air restriction the Pro-Tec Moflow airbox lid is a must for modified 400’s that require additional intake air flow or for any 400 owner who just wants more power. This item works especially well when used in conjunction with an aftermarket exhaust system. Manufactured from aluminum for strength, laser cut for a perfect fit and anodized for lasting good looks. The Pro-Tec LTZ400 / KFX400 Moflow airbox lid includes a replace­able water repellent filter element that will provide air filter protection while still provid­ing maximum airflow. For those who choose to ride without an airbox lid the Pro-Tec Moflow airbox lid is a great alternative to maintain performance while extending the service interval of the air filter and preventing debris from entering the airbox.

Dalton Industries 2015+ Polaris 900 RZR EBS Clutch Kit

The EBS versions have different clutches on them. Engine braking is very valuable for some riders, and not necessary for others. It can be rider preference. The EBS versions were not calibrated as well from the factory, and clutching performance can be improved upon for stock or oversized tires. There are also adjustments to help with power losses from higher elevations. Accurate clutch calibration is important to belt life, performance, and backshifting in load conditions.

Dalton Industries 2015+ Polaris 900 RZR Clutch Kit

vendor.2014.dalton.polaris-rzr900.clutch-kit.JPG
The standard clutch version (non ebs) of the 900 RZR / RZR S is quite well calibrated from the factory. Testing of the vehicle showed that for most typical trail / mixed use of the vehicle with stock (and most 26- 27") tires, the stock clutch calibration was fine and no clutch kit is necessary. For many, that means, save your money.This kit can be used when it is for sand dune use, or to help with power losses from higher elevations that are typically above 4000 ft.
