Hey guys,
Anyone familiar with burnstick lake area? I'm looking for random camping spots close to the cutline. I work in the area and am hoping to camp and ride to/from to maximize the summer a bit.
I've heard there's a campground in the area, however I'd rather boondock it.
Thanks!
Picked up my exhaust from the post office... Too bad it's the wrong one. Also picked up a Yutrax backrest from cabelas for $9.88 last week! Ammo cans and tuner should be in tomorrow! I suppose I should go get the machine itself one day too lol
I can vouch this is a good possibility, boot doesn't even need to be torn for this to happen. Years ago during a poker run I had an axle snap, inner CV was letting go, boot was still sealed up , and as each of the ball bearings got caught up and spit out, that tire would lock up for a split...
We don't carry 48" pipe wrenches in our unit trucks to get things "kinda tight" ;)
Throw a hi-torque on that secondary and feed it 3500 ft/lbs, might go right through the bike, but it'll never come loose :cool:
Just to update this thread, a decision has been made! I have a deposit on a 2019 sunburst yellow 850 XMR at a dealer in Calgary! The LWB chassis felt too big and cumbersome for me imo, and the determining factor between it and the renegade came down to purely price. I simply couldn't justify the...
Went riding out there yesterday, we accessed it from Bowden highway 587, left down the hill at RR62 (TCPL pumping station corner) and went about 20km west on gravel from there. I'd be interested in attempting it from the Caroline dump road next time.
First time riding in the area, trails were...
Thanks for the feedback guys! Some solid food for thought in here for sure, im still leaning towards an XMR due to the gear reduced trans, beefed up diff, etc. I do ride trails, but im far happier in a muskeg. For sure going to try to get on a LWB and see how I feel on it, im still skeptical to...
Thanks everyone, i'll see if I can throw a leg over a max just for curiosity sake, but it is really looking like ill be going for the 850 for my riding style. 2019 apparently has updated shocks for the XMR850, which would be good but i'm not terribly concerned about a stiffer ride anyway.
I...
Hey folks,
Looking at picking up a new machine late this summer or into fall and am well underway into researching what I want. I have narrowed it down to either an Outlander 850 XMR, or a Renegade 1000 XMR and I keep going back and forth between them. The ideal machine would be a short...
For any future users we had great luck out there! the road is ripped up but if your truck/trailer/camper has any decent ground clearance we easily made it up the hill on one of the many paths up the hill.
We camped about 1km up the cut line and had no issues getting in or out, trails that we...
They did rip up the road up the hill, last year we lucked out and got the bottom of the hill spot every time we went out (mostly weekdays due to shift work). This week I am going to attempt the hill climb with a much better suited truck (A big old 1990 Dodge W350), and shorter trailer.
I think...
Hey folks,
Been a member here for years but just recently am getting back into the ATV scene.
Curious if anyone from here rides the Phyllis Lake cut line? Did a quick search but cant find any other topics on it. Super easy to get too, straight at the Y down the Phyllis lake road, about 3km...
