If leaded race fuel is banned how are they going to enforce this? Are they going to take a sample of everyone's fuel on the hill? They can ban it from being sold which will be a pain but there are is always a way around rules and restrictions, especially ones that are pointless. Anyone heard...

Thats why I said "something like that".

So far this year it seams that there's been a high amount of property being stolen from people that don't deserve to have this sort of thing happen to them. Has anyone talked about personal use locator's at all?? I don't know what all is out there but this is an example of what I'm talking...

You guys should have stuck around Bell for a little bit longer. It ended up clearing out and there was lots of fresh snow for an easy ride up big Bell.

While playing on some of the hills out in the Edson area we had a lynx come out of the trees into an open spot by the trail and watch the three of us try climbing different hills. It watched us for a little while and then got bored and left. Other than that I've seen a few rabbits and such...

I agree about the tolerances but even in my field we've seen a serious decline in QC. I'll go through the oil pump but it was going through oil on a consistent basis. Either way at least this is a good reason to tear the sled apart so I can have a good look around at the way it all works together.

So I took all my parts to the Cat dealer today to find out if I had any coverage for the damage and I guess they've seen two other M8's in the last couple of weeks with the same damage. One had a season of riding on it as well but the one they just put through had less than a kilometer on it and...

Yeah you're right... the scuffing does wrap around the piston more than the pictures show but the wear is more on the thrust faces of the cylinders and not all the way around. Sigh, if the damage is from riding it cold then I think I'm going to have to start it and leave it running the whole...

If that's the case then what temperature and for how long should the engine run before going?? The only issue I have with the cold start is that I know every mile that was put on the sled. By any chance has anyone seen an engine damaged by overheating?? This was one issue we had when we first...

It's an 09 and since I bought it the dealership has been sold in the town I bought it from and the new owners aren't easy to deal with. I'm not sure what cold seizing is to be honest... I think it's the same thing as a cold start (loading unit while not up to temp). The engine is still under...

Took the pipe off my girlfriends M8 to give it a good blasting and coat it today and found a nice surprise. Anyone else have issues resulting like this with their 800 Cat's?? The engine has just over 400km on it as well and most of the damage is on the left (clutch) side jug. The pin moved fine...

Can someone tell me why we're not allowed to drink while we look around?? Really not fair if you ask me.

If you want to stick with the factory seat there's a guy on kijiji that's selling an '09 LE seat for $200 in Camrose. Just a heads up.

We'll see how the next couple of nights go but it spent all last night and all day raining in Brule and it's damn cold out right now. Checked The Weather Network and they're calling for chance of snow on the 20th of September and the 1st of October. Oh and one other note, we had snow by Brule on...

Hey Glen can anyone buy a membership?? We're not from town but Ash and I are gona end up doing most of our riding out there and we'd love to help out if we can!!! Glad to know what everyone on here is going to be wearing, I'll say sorry in advance if I run you over with my stroller, we're...
