Probably slightly but turbos arent hard to tune. It's the elevation changes that make shit hard on the mountain sleds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas. Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Looking at a 2008 dragon 700 rmk 155" on Tuesday. I don't need the sled as I have two already lmao. But it has fox float 2's and some other goodies that I want for my 2008 dragon. Buddy is asking $1000 or best offer. He said he took it on trade but lost interest in trying to fix it. So I am thinking about buying and parting it out. Should be able to pick it up for $800 cad. I should be able to make my money back and then some (I hope anyways). I have never bought anything to part out before lol. Here is the pictures of the reason it is so cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokin george Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) Hopefully this will be going out the door today. My buddy is looking for a sled for his GF. He sent a text yesterday to the wife asking if we still had the sled and he would pay cash lol. I'm going to use the salesman pitch on him and tell him someone is coming to look at it tonight lol. He's a wheeler dealer and repairs sleds,PwC and boats so it's a line he would use lol Edited September 16, 2019 by smokin george Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not crazy about the mounting bolts (wish it would have come with all stainless steel hardware) but that will be taken care of. Glad I'll be able to have a bag and fuel can on my MXZ , without having to buy the stack ones. 13 minutes ago, Zambroski said: Mine brought me dog food and some duck jerky. Yours is better!!!!

I already have 3 LinQ bags and 2 gas cans. Didn't feel like buying the stackable gas can when I already have the regular one. Glad we both will have our own fuel can and tunnel bag. Sucked trying to cram stuff for 2 of us in one bag, but I always wanted 2 fuel cans on us and he's been on a 120" the last 3 seasons.

If you ride at night , which we do a lot , you're foolish if you don't carry extra fuel. We've had to use our cans on several occasions for guys with older sleds that don't get the mileage our E tecs get. Had to use it once myself.

We left our camp for a ride in the morning and rode all day and got back late at night. We still had about 50 miles to go when fuel lights started coming on on all the sleds. It would've been a long walk. I'm putting the 14 litre fuel caddy on the new sled since it'll be heavier and two of us on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a spot to park our sleds/atvs when we had our camp as that was the only way for winter access. A buddy loaded all his gear into his skiboose and ran out of gas about 5 miles into the bush. Somebody siphoned all his gas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
