Whats everyones opinion on running sleds in cold temps, I'm talking -20 and below?
I am afraid to as last year one of my machines blew a rod, went right through the front. Sled was warmed up good. The weather was at least -20, snowing heavy, and we were just playing around in a feild, nothing extreme. It was a CAT ZL 600, with the attac system.
My kids want to ride ALL the time and I keep saying NO because its been -30 for a month (or so it feels like in Alberta).
So, what your opinion on cold weather and running sleds?
Is it hard on them?
What are some things a person can do so they can ride in cold weather and prevent EXPENSIVE damage? Thanks:d
