the elan was a sewing machine on crack and back fired on your balls. We would lift it up and pull the cord till the clutch engaged and started then drop and ride. oh so many walks home as a kid!

so special you never leave the trail on that tank of a beast you drive...sitting on the trail playing with your tuning fork.....unless you spend a bucket full of money for a turbo you just might as well stay on the trail...thats for real or i would run out and buy one......the elan i had as a kid...i hated that thing..single piston sin 250cc boggie wheelled crap machine....it always ran though:rant:

We have always been a Polaris family. Polaris pretty much had the mountain sled market all to them selves during the 90's and early 2000's. I have always said if i got out done my a equal machine I would consider the change. So much has to do with the dealer set up. However that being said Cat pee on doo's and wipe with yamhams.

I bought a 99 Arctic cat PS 700 new for dirt cheap cause it was considered a dog when it came out. rode it for 10 years and it never let me down. still runs great. gave it to my son and bought a 2010 m8 hcr. Would never buy anything else but Arctic cat.So for the rest of you who don't "What where you thinking":cool:

Rode with three XPs yesterday in really deep snow...... unfortunatley they could never get to where the poos were and when we came down to check on them....... they couldn't even poach all the lines.

So XPs suck and Arctic cat is lacking ..... and Yamaha need 20,000 in mods to make it a runner.

HAHAH i love these threads.

I have a hardtime beleiving this.

My 09 Renegade 800 would outclimb 08 Dragon 700 155 without a problem.

Now i have a etec and im sure it would destroy all the polaris sleds out there expecially 1160 Wedges.:d

i think he must have been drinking quite heavily, or dreaming, :drink4:

its the only explanation, just wait till that engine in that pro rmk goes boom, then the doo's can pull him around,

kind of like an expensive trailer you can put your kids in, lol

I was riding yesterday in 3-4' of pow and the cats (M7's and 8's) that were there couldn't make it to where the real hill even started even poaching tracks. If you watch the vids i posted earlier you can spot them diggin out every once in awhile. A couple of poo's out as well they preferred to sit on the lake and say that their engine wasn't coming out of break in mode. One turbo 1200 at 18 psi stomped everthing. Doo all the way. No yammies...must have been too much snow for them :d

Polaris

Are all junk the only years of polaris i would ever consiter buying IF it had a full rebiuld would be 02 - 04. The dragons are a fawking joke stright up. I find the polaris motto funny (The way out) they just left out the as long as its being towed by a Cat or Doo lol.

Yamaha

Are pretty safe motor wise but i think there kids toys. The mountain max was a sweet sled though

Ski Doo

Never left me stranded always started has a chit load of power. :d Those are cat walk sleds for sure. My sled (is in the shop right now getting a new top end) Ran extreamly well up until the day i took it in. It always hit 100 MPH in the blink of an eye and those pistion's where close to starting to crack the skirt off. I cant wait to get my Doo back

Arctic cat

Never let me down i have had lots of cats. Me and my bro took out our 98 Powder Specials (with the origanal motors 1600KM) The outher day and i can say i was pretty stoked on how well they went. There is nouthing wrong with a cat here are some pic's :beer::d
