No, those ones are not mine. I wish one of them was. Just curious if any other S&M ers picked up theirs? The one rental shop I spoke to in Revy did not have theirs yet.

What are you riding this year Chris? Did you jump in at snowcheck time?
No I sold my 2021 Khaos 165 for about what I paid for it because I sold my water treatment business and thought I wouldn't get much ride time this season due to working for the new owner during the transition. Now I am riding my 2019 so I can watch and learn what will be my best iron going forward for 23. I really like the Boost but have a hard time justifying the extra weight, shorter warranty and extra cost when we rarely get above 7000ft. The N/A is supposed to run better than previous and it already ripped. I have 7 rides this season by now and will get 4 days every second weekend so it won't work out too bad if my sled holds together. 4000 kms on it now and 1 season of warranty remaining. What are you riding now Ken?

Picked up another turbo expert 175 Chris. I sold my 2021 like you for what I paid for it so was only out the GST. It was a no brainer getting 3 yrs warranty and a newer sled. Good luck this winter. I'm sure you and Jim will have lots of fun in your own bit of paradise again!

Jim also picked his new 175 Turbo up yesterday. Sweet looking sled. I'm stuck in Calgary until mid-month but looking forward to it as it is deep!

Keep well and be careful.

Rode mine another 35km in deep powder. Had it bog a couple times and dropped to 1 cylinder. Changed plugs seemed better, suspect powder bog. Kept the intake vent as clear as possible. This was a local ride and not mountains. Hopefully after break In it loses this issue.
