I know your not and your right on these rotax.
Have you gone to Turtle lately? We were talking about hitting it after the dumps once the weather settles. Hoping not too many are venturing yet.
Rode Turtle last Saturday, we were first tracks. Maybe 20 sleds on the hill total. Turtle is one of my favorites only rode there once this season so far though.
We have been riding a lot of Non-traditional sledding areas. Places very tough to access with high risks involved, but big rewards too.
Reliability is key for this kind of thing, I need to beable to trust my Doo!

One of my favorites also, close to town and generally pretty quiet.
Yes sled dependability is utmost important, its big terrain, no tow jobs there.
Wife doesn't care for it so a boy ride.
When we ride through, she picks us up at the other end. Turtle to Eagles or vise versa.

Any sled that can be held to the bar in the deep not pop belts for 1500km and hold together for 4000km will sell. Problem with innovation and pushing the limits is you run into some engineering issues. My view right now is the 18 cat 15+ axys and 17+ sidewinders are decent sleds I really like the 850 power and chassis but there clutching is not 100% some are getting better results but to many squeaky wheels to buy one, they could doo a lot better with suspensions as well that lockout feature on the new qs3 is awesome. The shot is also an great idea I'm sure that will be on all of them soon enough.

Be in revy Wednesday with mr.canuck if you wanna throw a leg over a Sidewinder and a 18 cat send me a PM.
Hey, thanks for the offer. I have ridden the cat lots, but wouldnt mind trying the sidewinder.
I know the power is good, I have ridden 4stroke turbo's, but haven't really liked the way they handle because they feel heavy to ride.
But Id try one out.

Should of waited one more yr, or not. We shall see. My 18 has been the first of 3 doo's to ever give me any grief. Hope all the gremlins out of her and none of them are belt related. They are just too dam fun to ride.

Speaking of smashing bulkheads.
Does she come with every Gen 4 snow check? Must be a new BRP promo I haven't heard of. I like it!

Fully boxed chassis for 2019.
Tight unit.
I'm thinking if there is any kind of heartburn with the 2019 Gen 4's, She could make everything better back at the lodge! Just what a guy needs. BRP has thought of every angle!
she likely always has a headache, or is down for maintenance
