So, plan on heading out west (Rabbit Ears) assuming conditions improve. Just picked up a 2012 RMK 600, 144". I know I will be underpowered, but I didn't want to bump up to a 100% off trail 155" sled at this time (been there done that, not worth it for 1 trip per year IMO). Polaris's clutching chart (which I heard is pretty spot on) calls for 10-54 weights in the primary (P-85) for elevation 9-11K feet. Rather than spending $80 on a set and finding out I should have gone with a different size, any flatlanders out there that would consider letting me borrow or rent for my trip? I figure since they aren't destructible, and I would only be using them for a week, I thought I would ask??? I figure someone may have some sitting around not in use in their sleds??? If interested please text Brian @ 989-430-2830 or PM me. Thank you.

When are you going? Your best bet is probably to buy some used.
Note that you can wear out weights - the bushings that the pins go through wear out. That's what Goodwins told me when they rebuilt my clutch - mine were worn out.
we are scheduled to go out in 2 weeks, but may pull the plug if they don't get much new snow. Reports have been less than favorable to take a week off work and spend the $$ for marginal conditions. I have not been able to find any used ones, even on ebay. I can get new for $70-$80 on ebay, but like I said, I don't want to spend $80 extra dollars if I don't need to for what could or could not be the right weights for my sled....
