Already on my list of "must haves". Thanks for the advice!

Ok thanks. I'll look into that as well. Appreciate the advice!

Ok great. Thanks. Good to know.

I think I'll run it stock for the first while anyways just to see if there is anything I'd like to change. I do have an opportunity to pick up a boondocker 2.0 for cheap though. Would it be a good idea to get it now so that I have it when I'm ready for a little more hp? Can get a set of clutch...

Thanks. I'll check 'em out!

That's what I'll do then...thanks!

Maybe a stupid question but with the grippers, the site asks to specify what year and model polaris. Can someone tell me which ones fit best on the cat? Also, I have contacted Gene at White Knuckle. Hopefully he can assist me in coming up with a plan of action for this machine. Thanks for all of...

Thanks for the advice fellas. Turns out I was able to trade an old project I had in the garage for a 2013 Cat M 1100t with a 162" track. I was actually looking for something in the 152" range but this one kind of fell into my lap so I'm gonna run with it! Now to figure out what I'm gonna need to...

Thanks for the replies guys. So it seems to me that it's a sled worth keeping then and with a little work it will be a decent first machine. That's a relief as some of what I've been reading the last few days had me a little worried. I think that I will start with a vent kit,new belt and ski's...

Hey guys, new to the forum and to the sport for that matter. I had posted earlier about picking up a used sled as my first foray into snowmobiling and received a lot of great advice. Well it turns out I was able to trade an old project I had in the garage for a 2013 M1100 turbo HCR with 1km on...

Ha ha Summit Tree. Ya, I here ya. Kinda what happened once I went dirt biking in the mountains too. I'm kind of leaning towards newer ones to be honest mostly for warranty. It won't be brand new but maybe a year old or so. Guess I'd better start saving some more (don't like financing toys lol)...

Thanks for the responses. It looks like I've got some research to do on the summits and M series cats!!! It's good to have some direction now.

Thanks for the responses so far. I am not including all of the peripherals in that price range. It would be sled only. I can acquire the extras over the summer etc. I will definitely begin researching the two suggestions thanks. Lots to learn for sure. I know about the different opinions and...

Hi all. My name is Rick. I am looking to get into the snowmobile scene within the next year and this looks like a great place for someone new to the sport to learn. I hope that in time I will meet people here that I can get out and have fun with!!! Thanks.

Hey all. I am looking for some advice from you folks so as to hopefully reduce my chances of making a mistake when buying my first sled. First off, to buy a crossover or a mountain sled? I have no idea as to what one encounters in the mountains? I am not interested in hill climbing so are the...
