Ok, the RMK is riding like shit at 48deg. I think the Posshocks have the wrong oil in them? A lot of fade after giving it hell for five miles or so? I’m going to see what the dealer has for take offs tomorrow when I pick up the Nitro? I don’t remember this sled riding so bad? It’s getting up in the miles and doesn’t warrant new front shocks. @AKIQPilot

Those are just cheap hydraulic shocks, I took mine off this year and got FOX shocks from an Indy 800 sp, huge difference no more fading, I got mine $100 shipped from some guy across the country

I managed about 2500:miles.  Fairly good season for me, another couple baggers and it would have been epic. :bc:

Its a ton of riding.

If you assume a 20 week season and 1000 miles a week. If he rode 5 days a week, he'd have to ride 200 miles each day. Its a full time job.....lol

2150 here .  Not a ton but plenty for me ,  a lot of those days were bangin around the roads all day for a hundred or so which don't add up like diamond pounding does .  Lots of great riding this year tho .  you would have loved the caribou trip. Smooth as glass all the way up and back made for easy cruising , great weather too . :bc:

Dedication for sure. His wife rode 9000 miles. They have a breakdown of his fuel used as well. Was around 4300 litres

I've read it.  All those miles on a used set of Dupont slides. Only put a new belt on when the secondary spring broke.

Just doing the math in my head.  Fuel (sometimes for 2 sleds), food, hotels, etc.   $20000 riding season?

He needs a sponsor.

For sure. That’s a lot of money for a season of riding. Don’t know if I had the opportunity to do it, I’d have the will power to do it.

Our buddy Silverbacks must spend that and more, buying 3-4 new sleds a year with all the goodies...

Couple pics from my last ride of the year on Thursday. Wasn’t as sunny as I had hoped, but it was warm, the trails were awesome, saw some moose, and had a pile of kick ass poutine. :bc:
