I’m thinking of starting an online campaign for the manufacturers (BRP, Polaris, Yamaha, Arctic Cat) to see if they will collaborate on their head units for GPS partner tracking in future models. This shouldn’t be sled specific.
Not sure if anyone has started anything yet. If there’s nothing...
What’s everyone thought on the used sled parts price? Messaged a guy that’s parting out a ‘17 G4 to see how much he wanted for front KYB’s. Seem like he wants about double what I’d be willing to pay (and he thinks they’re 1500/pair new lol. 929/pair from doo new).
If anyone’s looking to sell...
Well, I had to fix another appliance in the house today. Washer bearings chit the bed a while ago and finally got around to replacing them. Second time I’ve repaired the washer. Last fix was the drain pump.
Got to talking to the wife, and she started reminding me how many times I’ve had to fix...

Guess I should let those that don't already know, the flames 50/50 is selling online (just like the Oilers 50/50). I would never hype up the Flames for anything, but its for a good cause, and the take home prize isn't too bad.
There last few draws have been ok, not Oilers epic (yet), but...

Got my power and natural gas bill today. I'm floored by it. My bill is $345.56 total. I calculated my actual consumption charge for electricity and natural gas. $102.30 (Before GST). Unbelievable. I live in Stony Plain, AB for reference. Here's the breakdown.

How will the introduction of EV into the snowmobiling sport change back-country snowmobiling. More specifically in BC.
Will the environmentalists leave us alone? They're the ones pushing EV cars.
Will the caribou closures for snowmobiles go away? No noise, no fuel, no oil?
If they get the EV...
So I’ve been thinking about importing a good quality, bright, rechargeable tactical helmet light for the snowmobile/off-road community. It would be a rechargeable lightweight tactical flashlight with both a handlebar mount and a helmet GoPro style mount. Completely waterproof (IP68 rating) with...
