we have'nt been having very good luck with our sos saws that come in the shovel handle .and not being able to replace just the blade is expensive .tried a gerber folding saw with the same results. and the colder it is the easier they break ,not much for support up in the t part of the handle ...

actually no .if the clutches are running out of alignment it will be behind the modules, a arms that a not lining up will be fixed with a module replacement . bulkhead means a total undress of the sled ,a big job if you are not sure what you up to

e module s module and a arms still aint the bulkhead and tunnel. if the bulkhead is warped she is done like dinner

riders range from 20 to 52 years ,us older guys have all had sleds for years ,and we are seeing alot of failures . the drive belt issue on the 13 pro s is total b,s. same as the driveshaft .the 12 pro that went down this week was at home 2300 ft. warm day ,lots of snow .and after riding for...

we have 4 pro s that we ride with one 12 has broken the crank and a deto,the other 12 a broken piston skirt causing a broken rod = a complete new engine .one 13 has done in 3 drive belts and the other 13 has a broken driveshaft not great. i ride a 13 doo and it would not start when it got cold...

time for a new bucket .looking at a fxr mtn air lite ,none of the local dealers carry them so ,if any dealer has stock shoot me a p.m. .. thanks

went in to wolverine on saturday .pretty messy in the creeks ,logs ,open water , water falls that we have not seen before .bad enough a couple of guys quit and went home early. seems like we are about 3 feet behind this year .

nice pics say hi to mrs.squires

had a 09 go down twice . both times it got so it would not start after being flooded , not enough compression to fire the wet engine .

update from the dealer this morning , crank is shot ,inner bearing is piling up .any ideas about lack of lube in the crankcase? etec seems to run pretty small amounts of oil .or premix a bit .used to do it on the older ho series . do any good with direct injected ?

i agree with your thoughts on warm up and proper break in ,own a few pieces of equipment so a good state of repair is important .interesting thought ,the 09 the crank busted in the middle and the issue with the 11 is also not on the outer seals or bearings.

well another trip to the shop this week. the 11 etec has went down for the third time. getting pretty p.o.ed with these r motors, the 09 i had previous to the etec went down 3 times as well .the 09 went down once with snow ingestion ,my fault sort of. that prefilter on those years were crap when...

i am thinking that if you didnt blow your condom in 18 miles things would just fine or am i confused ? wrong procedure ? kind of a amusing analogy

looked at the link and maps .then it was on the evening news . looks like silver sands,mt becker and calazon are going to be closed above 1400m. basically everything on the north or west side of highway 97 until you get close to PK .is this a done deal ? or is there still some process to go...

talked to my dealer today ,sounds like it will be around the 25th of nov. 163 x yellow /black. could get a little grumpy if it is later ,supposed to go to revy on the 8/9 of dec.. not much time to burn the new smell off.
