$26000 for a 2003 with 233000 kms that's been sh!t bagged and smoked in by a dbag all it's life...Would you take $28000??

Probably none. I ordered mine with the light bar and blue lens cover through Auto Truck Depot in Calgary. It was a quick delivery, if memory serves...

I bought my handlebar mount from Rigid. It's a 10", but they might have smaller ones. I like it because the light moves with the bars.

Yes, I understood that. I was suggesting that the new reinforced frame could actually be weaker than the unreinforced new frame. Not likely, but possible... I noticed the welding quality right away, but did not chime in until you asked for opinions. I didn't want to derail a nice build thread...

Probably, but not necessarily. The stock frame probably didn't have cracks in it to start with...

Correct. Your welder was in a big hurry or isn't a very good welder. Either way, he doesn't take much pride in his work. I can guarantee those welds have small cracks(crater), stress risers, arc strikes(localized hardening), slag inclusions, etc... That said, I can also see some issues with the...

I am going to look at a 2007 GTX Grand Touring Ski-Doo tonight. It has 500 kms on it and from the pictures, it looks to be in excellent shape. I've never owned a sled before, so I'm wondering what I should keep an eye out for. Any issues with a sled that's 9 years old with only 500 kms? Any...

Seems to work Ok with a perfectly clean truck, ramps, and quad. I bet they don't work so well when you add mud, snow, and ice into the equation...Ramps could also have more traction surface area for safety.

Lowe's has them as well, probably a little cheaper too...

If you ride Arctic Cat, Ralph's has a nice new shop in Balzac you could check out, it is very close to Cross Iron.

There's a new Texas BBQ place downtown next to Staples that's really good. Half price on all the meat after 10 pm. Turns into a country bar/nightclub on the weekends. Mechanical bull as well. Big Hill Springs Provincial Park is only 15 minutes west and is a really nice spot for a short hike...

Foldout cots are a nice option for beds.

Yes, very true Snopro, but both operators we use, replace a third of their fleet each year and we get priority booking, so we ride new sleds every year.
