Good day all. I bought another heavy touring bike, and am looking for a heavy duty loading ramp so I can load it in the back of a pickup. Prefer something that folds and at least 2 feet wide. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

FYI, the softail has a twin cam B engine, meaning is is counterbalanced. A twin cam out of a bagger is an "A" engine (no counterbalancer), you will not be happy with that engine in a softail frame...

I haven't on the 22. But I did it many times on my 01 , 03 , 07 , 14 , and 16 3500's. The 22 HO is super quiet, has lots of power (better then my 07 which had a full delete, exhaust, and smarty jr tune), and thus far has been the best one on fuel. Truck has 3.73 gears, and I'm seldom under...

Not Maxwell, but I have a 24 2500 4x4 with the 6.6 gas / Allison auto as a company truck, and I baby that thing. Averages 19.7 L / 100 km on highway (empty), driving respectably. With a small trailer it's 33L / 100 km. In perspective, my personal 22 Ram 3500 does 11.5 L/100 km highway empty, and...

What he said. Looking forward to the transformation...

Both ICE vehicles and EV's have thier place, If you want to drive an EV, great. I for one will not own one in the near future, not until the range / charging situation improves dramatically, where I work there isn't any charging stations handy - not to mention the price of electricity has...

They are all overpriced - but considering it’s a new sled if it’s priced in line with the other offerings, it will sell. And to be honest, 80% of riders don’t need a turbo, and not everyone wants one either. Some riders are recreational (myself included), and ride to have fun, not engage in a...

I’ve been using AMS in Edmonton for years, even on new clutches - you’d be surprised how much they are out of balance out of the box.

Where do you generally ride? Rider weight with gear? Thing about clutch setup is it is dependent on type of snow, rider weight, elevation, modifications, etc. one Size does not fit all…

Losing reverse does suck, hence why I'm on the fence about installing it on my (Sidewinder) King Cat, as I'm in my mid 50's now... But there is a significant weight reduction you can feel, and I actually geared my previous M1100T up slightly with excellent results. I ran that belt for 3000 miles...

I would think it is under warranty??? If it isn't, you need to figure out if the brake fluid is contaminated, meaning pull the master cylinder apart and see if the seals are swollen - a good indicator there has been a petroleum product introduced into it. You could also bench bleed the master...

You can’t fix stupid…especially in this day and age. Sad part is these people are breeding…

I believe there was an an accessory kit available in 2008 for the M-series, but it wasn’t cheap. Maybe find a used F or XF sled that is being parted out…

It’s better. It has to be. BRP needs to sell sleds lol Truth is, every manufacturer improves on their product line, and in turn the price goes up...

Ski-Doo has been making those for years - just get an F / S / ZX chassis windshield rubber mount. They're cheap, fit perfectly, and you can still kill the sled if you push hard enough. Plus, it's a genuine ski-doo part, won't void your warranty lol
