    Quads vs Sleds - which is better?

    Snowmobile for me personally. I can go faster while feeling safer (whether or not it is safer is up for debate, but I feel safer). 90mph on a sled is sketch, but doable. If I went 90mph on an ATV I would like freeze up and crash. Sleds can be a blast off trail, I can tip it, carve it, pin it...

    Ifs shocks rebuild question

    I've got a pair of the generic fox shocks that seemed to be on every sled of the era ('96 600 xcr). I believe they are 15 ish inches from eyelet to eyelet. I pulled them off to check them out as I bought this sled this past winter and want to go over it before the season hits. My question is...

    Running board coolers question.

    I definitely have coolers under the runners. I'm going to look into moving to run under the tunnel, hoping to do a 136 extension, and I feel like the coolers would be more effective under the tunnel, whenever I look under there it's called in snow, whereas the runners see very little snow unless...

    Running board coolers question.

    So I got my 96 xcr running and it seems to be in great condition aside from the needle and seat which will be fixed this spring. I'm currently doing g research and brainstorming to prepare for the summer and spring work that I want to do to it. One important part that I want done is to swap out...

    2002 600 steering issues?

    My friend has a 2002 polaris edge 600. We are attempting to get it fixed. One issue is with the steering. When the skis are pointed straight. The bars are turned pretty bad to the left. When I say bad, I mean that it is practically not rideable. I'm wondering if there is an adjustment somewhere...

    95 XLT 600 exhaust leak?

    Thank you so much. This reassures me to my ability to do the job. I just went to see my sled today, and I wanted to see how much the crank case had flooded. Before I explain anything, I should note that the fuel was shut off over night, and in the morning I had someone turn the fuel on, it sat...

    95 XLT 600 exhaust leak?

    Ok. So it looks like it may be the needle and seats in the carbs. (Same as inlet needle valve?) I have three questions. 1. What needle and seat assembly do I need to purchase? From the research I did, all I found was that I needed a mikuni VM 28/511 1.5. is this correct? 2. When I replace the...

    95 XLT 600 exhaust leak?

    Yes. That could very well be the case. It was extremely cold when I tried to start it. And I have a sneaking suspicion that the seller of the snowmobile may have had it flooded when I got there. He had tried to sell it to someone before me. He also did not know a whole lot about 2 strokes at all...

    95 XLT 600 exhaust leak?

    Alright thanks freeflo. I do know that 2 strokes don't have valves, I just didn't know the proper terminology (is it simply I take and outtake?) Either way, when I remove the spark plugs to drain the flooding issue, do I also need to shut off the fuel before I pull the cord? I have unflooded a...

    95 XLT 600 exhaust leak?

    So I recently bought a snowmobile (in title). And it came with a few problems, but also a nice price tag. From what I can tell. The main issue is an exhaust leak. This is all fine and dandy, as I am getting the crack in the exhaust welded in a few days. Now there may be more problems, but the...
