Two Newbies

Hi Everyone. We just got ourself a couple of 1998 670 Summit X machines. I am totally new to this and must say so far so good. My husband has sledded before but not for many years. So far we have been out every weekend, Whitecourt, Alberta Beach, Seba Beach Area, and today Barrhead. Today was the first time it was soooooo cold. But we still put on about 120kms. Shall sleep good tonight

Any day of riding is a good day but sometimes we have to suck it up and ride on the cold days. Never forget a bad day of riding is still better than a good day at work. Ride on!!!!! M.P.E.

hi i was thinking of putting the 2" riser on our sleds, are the cables long enough and how tall are you? does it help with the stand up riding. i am 6 1" the wife is 5 9". i find i have lean over to far for standup.

Yup, it's me. Want to go somewhere for sure.

On the risers; I'm near 6'1" also. Added 2" to the 08 Renegade. Could use more, but that was the max without throttle & brakeline extensions. Not sure on the older models. How tall is the riser on there now? There are some really nice adjustable risers out there but they cost a small fortune. At the rate you're going you'll be ready for a couple new machines next year any way.
