    Duramax problems

    I have an 05 6.6L Duramax that has been spending more time sitting than driving lately since I bought a smaller car for around the city. The last couple of times I've driving it it will start bogging a sputtering and pouring white smoke out of the exhaust but then seems to be ok for a while...

    Risers for 06 Summit

    Thanks to a shoulder that doesn't seem to want to stay in its socket anymore I need to raise the bars on my 06 Summit to try and get a bit more leverage. I know from reading other posts that I can go an additional 3" over the stock bars before I need longer cables. I don't like the stock bars (I...

    Bike Rentals in Edmonton

    My sister and wife came up with a brilliant idea to rent street bikes for my Brother-in-law and I for Fathers Day. I checked online and the only company that came up was Johnny Motorbike (other than Top Gear Scooter Rentals, which isn't quite what I had in mind ;) ) Anyone know of any other bike...

    Big Horn Dam in Nordegg

    Does anyone know about the rules for camping at the Big Horn dam? Do the fishcops care if a couple of trailers camp for the weekend and can I build a firepit (assuming no fire bans). We usually stay in the campgrounds but aren't packing the kids this trip and have seen tons of trailers parked...

    Who would you rather have on your team?

    Dionne Phaneuf or Sheldon Souray? Jerome Iginla or Ales Hemsky? Mikka Kipersof or Dwayne Roloson? Todd Bertuzzi or Dustin Penner? Robin Regher or Steve Staios? Sam Gagne or Mike Camalleri? Fernando Pisani or Craig Conroy? Curious to see the value that others put on these players. And yes I...

    Pimpin hoes (backhoes that is)

    I know many of you avid sledders out there are involved with construction equipment either as an operator, contractor, oil patch worker etc. Since the economy has taken the plunge, many of us (myself included) probably find that money is tight and getting out to enjoy our sport isn't as easy...

    Sledding on a budget.

    Was looking to get another superclamp at the snowmobile show but was disappointed to see they were $180 (they were $160 last year). Does anyone know if I can find them cheaper anywhere in Edmonton? With the slow down in the economy, money aint comming any easier these days and I need to save a...

    Looking for dual sport bikes

    Trying to help a friend find a good deal on a couple of dual sport bikes. I know that often the small town dealers have better pricing than the larger dealers here in Edmonton. Just thought I'd see if any of you S&M'ers know of anyone looking to move some inventory as summer is running out. He...

    Navigation Systems

    I am looking to purchase a Navigation System and don't really know much about them. I would like one that I can use in my truck to navigate city streets as well as use on my sled/quad in the back country to find my way out of the bush if I get lost. Does anyone have any recommendations on what...

    Do any of you have any info if and when Toyota or Nissan will be introducing diesel trucks into our market? My 3 year lease on my 05 Chev Duramax is up this month and my dealer is trying to get me to trade in on a new one. I have put some money into my truck (ie. 4" Rancho lift, Edge chip, Tires...

    Simple question

    Anyone offer any insight? I just bought my first sled this season (a 2006 Summit 800) which is completely stock. I blew 2 belts in 2 days last time I was in Valemount and I have had several people advise me to remove the plastic clutch housing to improve clutch cooling. I took this advice and...

    Buying gear

    Hey y'all. I just bought my first mountain sled at the end of last season (took 1 trip to Vailmount, came home and bought one). I am looking to purchase the rest of the gear that I need (ie. beacon, shovel, probe, boots.....etc.) I took a look at the new 2008 Skidoo accessory flyer that I'm sure...

    Gettin the itch

    I've been riding dirt bikes and quads most my life but had never really tried sledding until late last season. A bunch of avid sledders from my work convinced me to rent a sled and go with them out to Valmount. I rented a 2006 Summit 800 151" and was blown away by how much fun mountain sledding...
