Puzzleboy Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Sled covers, Princess Auto's sale starting Dec. 13th. I have two of these currently covering up a couple vintage sleds outdoors. They are surprisingly good. The colour has faded a little, but the material has not thinned or torn in 3 years of exposure. I did spray the one with 303 waterproofing (my marine stuff). No tears or rips. Good storage covers for the money. I don't know if they'd stand up to trailering or not. Would probably need some better straps sewn on. But for storage, overnighting, or even outdoor storage, they hold up well. They also pack compactly and light, and have a nylon storage bag. And they completely cover older style sleds, bumper to bumper. My XP and XR covers do not..... Lol I think I have the large and XL covers. Plus, if they're "starting at" $16.99, that means the sale is actually up to 55% off, not 35%. I'm grabbing a few more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokemerc Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 They are too thin and flap too much to be used for a trailer cover. Ask me how I know. They are good however for keeping the dust off and are waterproof. I've got four of them, good deal for a storage cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puzzleboy Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Yeah, I figured that for trailering. Even on my OEM XP cover, I sewed an extra tie down on the front to minimize flapping. Just used one of those plastic buckle/nylon strap things. Agreed on the storage, and price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puzzleboy Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) Have used this guy 5 times now for 2 colour sled registration decals. You can pick any of the MS fonts, and send him the info. $9.00 USD mailed to your house in Canada. No import/customs charges. Quality vinyl. Hard to beat that price. He's also made them smaller than 2" high for a couple of my vintage sleds. (Don't tell Odot). I usually find here in Canada, the price is around $30-$40. I've attached a sample also of what I sent him for font & sizes, etc. (No, it wasn't PUZZLE) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Snowmobile-Registration-2-Numbers-Outline-Decal-Sticker-Vinyl-2-Colors-/262269189878?hash=item3d10763ef6:g:9u0AAOSwDNdVnVWA&vxp=m Edited December 17, 2016 by Puzzleboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some dude is out there breaking them with just his thumb 4 yr warranty is a good deal if you have a scrap sled to drop off, unless Cat denies the warranty claims after the work is done and screws all their dealers again. Who needs warranty with a Cat anyway Edited March 3, 2017 by Tinker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
