    3 mountain sleds in an 18'?

    Is this a wells cargo silver sport? I was just wondering because I think I have the exact trailer and was wondering about three sleds. How did it pull with it loaded like that. Was there enough tongue weight. Did the skis on the back snowmobile touch the other sleds? Thanks in advance for...

    fuel/oil mixture

    Use 32:1 with a mineral based oil! If using a synthetic based oil follow the companies recomended mixing ratio. This is usually between 40:1 and 50:1. I have always used mineral based oil at 32:1 with no problems.

    450 Comparisons

    If buying a honda keep an eye on the engine oil. They have such a small volume and consume a slight amount. Keep it full and ride it. My 450 has been great. I have seen a CRF 250 R submerged under water. We brought it to my place took the carb apart cleaned the mud out, drained the water...

    ????? cr 125

    I would look into a heavy flywheel if your not in a positon to get a different bike. Try Steahly offroad for a heavy flywheel. It will make the bike alot more ridable.

    2008 F350 Diesel Fuel Mileage?

    Agree 100% But the good old regulators test the emissions under ideal conditons. All of the big 3 new diesels 2008 and newer have whats called a DPF. This is a filter that takes the soot out of the exhaust and stores it. When the differential pressure between the inlet and outlet of the...

    Fluids

    I use Petro Canada Duron synthetic 5/40w in in the engine, castrol synthetic gear lube 75/90w in the front and rear diffs, Petrocanada Dextron 3 tranny fluid in the transfercase and transmission. I have had good luck with all of them! The Dextron 3 tranny fluid is for the manual transfer case...

    Info needed for 2001 summet 800

    If it is the type of Chassis you are wondering about that would be the ZX Chassis. Depending on how high you are going with the bars you may be able to re-route the electical and achieve the desired length. If now look into possible plug in electrical extensions or manufacture you're own.

    new sled

    This statement is incorrect. All 2007 up summit models have the 800R motors. The MXZ's with the 800 in 2007 had the 800HO. The 800R has the liquid cooled crankcase and early production runs in 2007 had crank problems. Some say it was the case boring, some say it was the bearings, some just...

    07 xrs

    IMHO stay far away! I had the XRS and it was not reliable at all. Dealer replaced the rave valves, replaced every component in the clutch, then the clutch itself, engine light was comming on dealer couldn't find problem the list goes on. O'ya not to mention the crank problems!

    09 800R primary sticking

    Do what I did and get rid of the problem all together. Since I got rid of the sled all my problems went away. I lost faith in BRP. I have owned many skidoo products all of which were great until I got into the rev chassis in 2004. Bending flying nuns, belts blowing, pos clutches, bottom end...

    Not your average sled vid

    Great Vid! Takes me back to the days when 6 inches of snow and a 250 cc sled was all that was needed to have fun. We sure get caught up in the biggest is the best when I remember some of the best times were had on the small sleds. :) Thanks!

    ITP Rim offsets

    Yes they will make a difference in the offset and backspacing. But the problem will get even worse with wheel spacers. The problem is with too little backspacing and with wheel spacers the backspacing will be even less!
