I do for sure he'll just the not having to buy a new one every 2 yrs is enogh reason for shot oh and it is not for when digging out it is for less effort when ridding on its side and or javing to pull it over and around TBH no- I want electric start for the first pull of the day. Starting a warm engine isn't a big deal i did it for 2 years and 6k miles on my 12 freeride which only had the rope but i hated the morning start. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a park road or trail......and if the snow is 4’deep you’re riding on 3’6” of hardpack Let me know when you jump off your sled and you’re eye level with the running boards. 👍 Edited February 21, 2019 by SnowRider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went in up to my waist. That's why I'm sitting on the sled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildboer Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 15 hours ago, Angry ginger said: zero reason for shot on a trail sled, it's designed to save weight when your having to dig a sled out not while riding groomed trails. Shocked no 129 900's, they already have the chassis not a big deal to attach the 129 tunnel on it. It's 20lbs of weight savings... Saying that doesn't matter on trail is like claiming 4-strokes are as nimble as 2-stokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s stupid is not having a recoil when you get electric start. SHOT is a neat feature but only works when the sled is warm and easy to pull over. I’d choose electric start on a trail sled every time. Just give me a damn cord for when the battery or starter shits the bed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If something does fail it takes literally seconds to grab a strap s d start it off the clutch. I agree its dumb they dont include them but estart is probably just as reliable as a recoil rope now days 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine was acting up last weekend too. Happened at a busy gas pump, luckily I got the gear to extend after a few taps on it. Still gay doo shit though. Made me have a flashback of my buddies cavalier in high school. He used to make his little brother crawl under his car before school and whack on the starter until it would eventually roll over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still prefer the 20-25lbs weight savings, especially when you only have to pull start it once a day. How hard is it to pull over these new engines? If SHOT can start it with a quarter turn of the crank I can't imagine a cold start would take more than 2-3 pulls with a bad hangover... 1-2 if you didn't drink too much the night before AND you don't even have to fuck around with a choke or a primer.

Edit: I went back and there's no one sitting on their sled in that pic... were you taking it from your seat on a 3rd sled and riding with an invisible 3rd guy?
