thinking about ordering a 15 summit can any one tell me the difference between a low elevation and a high elevation one. i do not want e-start and the only way i can get it is to order a high evaluation one and need to know what i would have to change
There's no 2 factory released High and low elevation option, unless you have it set up at your dealer (which there's no reason to). I've checked 3 summits the last 4 years, and have always followed my friend/neighbors advice (Big John - Sled Head Racing.....Doo specific). If you decide to pick one up, just swap the factory clutch pins / weights from stock to Straightline Performance's Pin Kit......... Very, very simple. Run hollow for out west, (8k >), then swap to the heaviest pin for riding midwest. Secondly....., swap the 19 tooth gear for 21, leave it, and your set. If you invest in those small adjustments upfront, you'll be happy with the stock setup. Might have to adjust the clickers 1 or 2 settings for optimal RPM's at high/low elevation, but that only takes a minute to doo...
and secondly........., it's not true that you only need to adjust the clickers for High vs low elevation... If you don't adjust the pin weight accordingly for high vs low........, you "will" go kapow! while running the high elevation set up in the midwest....
