Ok, so I know having a fully insulated, heated 26' inclosed with all the bells and whistles is nice. Not to mention the 60,000$ diesel pulling it, but lets see those who do it with less. 1/4 ton trucks, uncovered sled trailers, cars pulling trailers, etc. Lets face it, big expensive toys...

Or are there less people sledding this year? I haven't even been out, but reviewing the forums from time to time it just seems like a lot less hype. Almost.. quiet?? My sled is back together and have plans to ride this Sunday. So is it true? Is it the economy? Is it the more commonly...

Anybody have one they want to sell, or rent out? I figure if I'm going to tear this damn engine down it's going right down to inspect the crank. Hoping somebody has the BRP tool I can rent for awhile. Thanks, Q

Explaining my problem. Last spring I was riding with some buds. While doing a slow, whooped out section of trail and being a bit rusty on the throttle I suddenly heard a metallic rattle from the engine. It didn't last too long, but maybe 15-25 seconds. In that time I couldn't determine it's...

Had any of you guys had luck removing the head and re-using the existing o-rings? Wanting to take a peek in there and have most of the stuff off the engine right now so only felt right. Just don't want to take it off without all the parts to put it back together. On top of that I'd have to...

To keep random posts to a minimum, lets keep the most current conditions updated on this single post! It's a pet peeve of mine....

Does a late start to the season help with snow stability? Understanding that the difference in temperature from the base to the surface and how it affects snowpack, does a late start which allows the ground to lose a lot more temperature allow the snow to be more stable in the future? It seems...

Where do you guys get them? Be that local or ordered in? I'll be digging into my 06 REV 800 and doing a piston swap for sure. Just curious where to get the pistons, rings, bearings, seals, and any other parts I may stumble on requiring replacement. Would like to know before digging in. It's...

Years ago somebody said once the ski hill shuts down, they allow sledders to use it with permission. Is this true? Maybe interested in taking advantage of this for sledboarding. Thanks,

I've seen tons of bikes out in Calgary. Everything from the custom choppers to the streched out gay streetbikes. (I own a streetbike). Figured I'd ask who's been out and how did they enjoy the ride? I heard my neighbor warming up his SV1000 this morning to go to work. The Aprilia remains in...

Lol, feels so Ironic that I give sledders a bad time about checking conditions when it's obvious, but I'm doing it for dirt biking now. How's the snow down low in the valley? I have only rode out there once but thinking about heading that way with some friends to satisfy the urge and get some...

Hey guys, After checking out the conditions on the website this weekend I noticed that the tough times has not only fallen on us, but the people who help us enjoy the outdoors. I was wondering if people would be interested in donations to the CAA for all the hard work and likely lives they...

Carb bolts Seized - How to? Looking for input. I "thought" I read to hit them with a heat gun to get them out, but figured I'd check before hunting a heat gun down (they were just on sale.... :mad: ) Something I have always wanted to buy but figured "have I had to use one yet?" Either way...

Was at Corbin today doing some snowboarding and when we got back to the staging area somebody said their buddy was stuck up on the hill with a badly injured leg. Ambulances were called and while leaving we passed two ambulances and two police vehicles heading in. Just wondering if there is any...

Once again, CDN Tire has the good stuff on sale. Race you there. Q EDIT: looks like I am slow to the punch. Sold out at Southland.

Ok, so I'm sure a lot of people are in the market to buy an airbag. It seems slowly safety is becoming a more mainstream goal in our sport which is a long time coming to the masses. So, my question is why is there so little information with these devices? I understand Snowpulse has very...

Well, doing the pre-season maintenance. Yup, I'm slow at getting out I know, but spent my day at a Zac's Tracks AST-1 training seminar and now it's onto the sled. What gearing do you guys recommend for local BC riding (Golden, Revy, Fernie) I haven't had an issue with stock really. Maybe a...

Ok, So this winter I may be buying a trailer because my 2009 Taco has a 5' box. In previous years I rocked the sled in the box of a Dakota with 3-4' overhang. Hey, it worked actually quite well =) What would you guys recommend? Can I get away with not having trialer brakes? (<2000 lbs). I...

Anybody jump on their sleds and head out with their boards/Ski's? I'm looking to do more of that this year. Currently my trusted sledding buddies are all just sledders. Getting them to do trips up and down the mountain takes some persuasion. To top that off, most of them are moving away (you...

What have you guys done to your jetting for compensate for our elevations? I know for a fact mine's running stinking rich, as do most sleds. A 2-stroke isn't a 2-stoke until it's jetted right. I love the crisp, quick reacting 2-stroke when it's properly jetted. I'd like to play around with...
