Could it be a problem with drive coupler spring damper? It is a bit loose but I cant find any information how it shoul be. If anyone here has heard about similar problem, I would be thankful for any advice :smile

Grooved Silverbacks

I like to break out my "ideal tire groover" from time to time. I had good results grooving the super swampers on my old wheeling rig (a 1 ton K5 blazer on 44's) and I was happy with the ice traction after siping the BFG mud terrain tires on my daily driver for better snow performance. So the next logical step for me was to try grooving and siping my Silverbacks for better snow, ice and rock traction...

I used a #3 round blade set to 1/4" depth for the grooves and a #5 blade set to 1/4" for the sipes that didn't show up very well in the picture. I think they look similar to the Silverback Xlites.

So far, I haven't noticed any chunking and the performance has increased slightly.
I may cut the grooves deeper in the spring if I don't see any excessive wear.

Central Pannel help

First thread :)
I have a 2009 Rene 800 and noticed the day I first rode it, that the central pannel didn't want to line up properly. I had it off today to change the air filter and when putting it back on, I tried to line it up properly.... But I can't seem to get It, it's almost 2 inches out on the front clips and I can't figure out why, ive spent all evening trying to get all the clips in but I just cant get it lined up right!
Is my frame bent? Do the panels warp?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
