I just want it to run and ride good. I hear ya. I have sled for drag racing with the boys. I don't trail ride that much,so buying a new trail sled isn't going to happen anytime soon. I may do 800 trail miles a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went from groomers getting stuck all over the place to sucking hind tit in the span of about 2 - 2 1/2 weeks . There's still some riding here up north but a lot of shit got cut off when it started to flood , lots of ice ect . I have to go up and get my sled , trailer and gear still so hopefully I can at least squeak in a ride . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 We've actually had average snow fall but the warm temps in between and rain in mid February really zapped a lot of it. Now the base is deteriorated. So, any new riding will be like 1st of the season again. Jesus. If I gotta start trailering to ride, life will suck.

The rear may not be as good as the rmotion but I thought it was pretty good and the shocks are top notch. Better gauge and I get the track I want without having to pay for a swap. And the poo 800 is on par with the etec. It's a no brainier... That was my only complaint about my XRS However, doing a track swap is easy.

From now on I'm setting 2 dates. #1 dates to go N. #2 a cut off date that I need to know by if you're going or not. If you don't tell me you're in before my cut off date, you're on your own for transportation and lodging accommodations.

Use to be, myself , or Sled Solutions Paul, would make some reservations and see what worked for everyone. Wasn't to hard. Now it's, I've got this , I can't I gotta do that. Shit that doesn't have to be done right away most of the time. Like dealing with a bunch of old women now SMH Yea , it's cool. Now that he's only down to 2 sports (Fed baseball and golf) we have more time to do this. Before when he was in football and hockey too, time just wasn't there. He says he may do football next year, buy he thinks he's all done. Lots of politics in HS football. If you're not in the clique, you're an outcast. I'd rather be an outcast, than a suck ass like those people are Same here. I got one buddy (minus Paul) from my old group, who still has a sled. And he is one of the ones going and hawing this year. Told him next year I'm not playing games. Got a couple talking about it , but I still haven't seen any action in buying anything yet. We'll see. You still have a sled? My wife's talking about buying a SxS now. I'm like cool, but I'm picking it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
