Be sure to get 06-07 oem cable and blowsion adapter when you put on the OVP. Unsure about front sponsons. I don’t have them on mine and it handles fine (now that steering system and cable have been replaced). Stock steering was embarrassingly bad.
Yes, thank you. I have the RRP steering system and this makes for quite a bend in the cable if the cable connector ball is out (further to the right of ski centerline) towards the farthest outside end as the steering plate allows. In fact, on mine it seems if I try to move the connector ball out to the very outside (rightmost) end of the steering plate slot, the cable makes a such pronounced bend right in front of the stock cable bracket (there is a little rubber outer sheath sleeve on the cable just in front of the bracket, and two harder outer sheath pieces butt together right under that rubber, and this is where the cable makes a sharper bend - not an easy curve) such that the control cable has some resistance to the point of slight binding when handle is turned left to the stops; this makes it so that the outermost cable attachment adjustment allowed by the RRP system is not practical / possible with the stock cable and bracket.
I was looking at making a little aluminum adapter piece to move the stock bracket over a bit more to the right, and I think this would move the cable a bit right and allow the cable to be going through the bracket in a straighter way and so deal with resistance / binding issues; however, it seems like having a bit more throw in the cable (as in a pre '08 type cable) might allow that the directional jet nozzle could be adjusted so as to turn a bit further in each direction than with the stock cable throw. If this is really the case, then I think I would skip trying to adapt the stock bracket, and switch to a cable with more throw.
I am not sure about this last though, could anyone confirm that this would be the case, or am I screwed up in how I am thinking about what is benefit of extra throw?
Help with understanding about exactly how the extra throw works to a benefit would really be appreciated.
I think
@tomski sells a heavy duty cable with more throw, and a bracket to move the first cable support point a bit to the right and further down the pole than stock.
