    162” x 2.5” Yamaha Viper too big for trails?

    After 10000 km on groomed trails on a 2016 Viper mtx with 153 x 2.6 power claw...here's my opinion....yamaha 4 stroke...awesome for trails....the mtx setup with low gears, big long track and no sway bar (on cats or yamaha mtn sleds)....sucks for trails. Do yourself a favor and buy a 137 or at...

    Thankyou Martin Motorsports Service Dept - West End

    I haven't yet purchased a sled or big ticket item from Martin's but I will say this....have always been treated like family at that store and buy all my accessories from them even though I have 2 local dealers much closer to me. Thank you to all the staff (especially South location) as its very...

    Inboard VS Outboard

    For pleasure cruising the inboards can have a very nice lounge area over the engine bay when parked. Generally longer engine life with this type but there is winterizing and less performance due to the driveline inefficiency compared to an outboard. A plus is generally a bit less to insure an...

    Polaris 850 Patriot aka The Loctite Rocket

    Let's stay on topic and pick on Polaris some more first lol.....plenty of time and photos of cracked monorail elsewhere to post about. 2 things come to mind on all brands....first year models have their woes....and all the R&D done on prototypes doesn't seem to measure up to us consumer use...

    Polaris 850 Patriot aka The Loctite Rocket

    163 miles....I stand corrected....diesel like durability there....like my 1980 srx 440 (POS) All kidding aside...I only started this to poke the bear after all the slagging the Gen4 went thru lol. Hopefully this is a limited amount of failures but even die hards have to admit the big bore...

    Polaris 850 Patriot aka The Loctite Rocket

    Lots for sale on Kijiji....a few with the special 5 year warranty lol. Enjoy the crank bearing and other issues this 840 brings ( poor resale)? Typical Polaris big bore engine woes.....maybe in 2020 they will get it right. Till then it's a ticking time bomb this "Loctite Rocket" After 100's of...

    Belt warranty no questions asked?

    Just surfing Kijiji and saw Coopers in Edmonton advertising Gates drive belts warrantied for 1 year no questions asked for $170 (starting price).....I don't own a belt burner but if I did this might be of interest if the belts don't hurt clutch sheaves or there's a catch somewhere? Snow in...

    Do you shoot Fireball or sip it on ice?

    While on one of my many Vegas trips I was introduced to a drink by a local friend there.....pour 4 ounces Angry Orchard cider into a glass with a drop shot of Fireball and shoot it.....Not a bad drink but way too funny of a name..ANGRY BALLS :beer::cool:

    WHY I DON'T LIKE THE BRPcares STATEMENT THREAD

    Because quite simply they design a clutch that can be adjusted trail side without clutch disassembly for changing conditions. Is it perfect at all times or the utmost efficient....no on both. But I as a consumer don't mind giving up a bit of ultimate performance to enjoy the simple adjustments...

    Swiped and found 2016 rzr 1000

    It was an attempt to deflect some humor onto a bad situation. No code names just characters from the Trailer Park Boys TV show that maybe you haven't seen. Again if it wasn't taken by you in the spirit I meant the joke then I apologise a second time. If you want to rip me a new one then pm me...

    Swiped and found 2016 rzr 1000

    Firstly I want to say we all feel your pain and hope the situation improves.....it is BS how much theft there is and how little the authorities are able to do about it. Now stop reading my post here until you have calmed waay waaaay down. It sounds like Mr Lahey didnt want to evict Bubbles...
