    Yes. Looking at the new Polaris 110 efi but its pricey

    Just go buy a new one , if your lookin that new , you won’t find a whole lot of deals . They hold they’re value like 120 sleds and kids dirt bikes . You’ll sell it for close to what you paid for it .

    Well, I'd like to see the abolishment of the free weekend. At the very least, make it so that a sled will qualify one year then have to wait 2 years to qualify again. The whole idea was to let people try the trails and buy a permit the following year. Not for people plan their trail riding around one free weekend.

    It should cost a minimum of $100 to be on the trails. What the hell does $70 do for the system once the permit processing is done, much less $35.

    I'd like to see the season pass be $250 on early buy and $350 for late purchase. But we need to be able to enforce it or we will just create more freeloaders.

    The pass has been too cheap for too long.

    Did you not read that we put this thread back on track?

     

     

    On track ? .... Hmmm , what is this you speak of .........

  3. I’ve been to FH many times for work  . It’s no Lagoon city . It’s very impressive . The way they constructed the Harbour . Restaurants that will be there . Bandshell , you name it , it has it . 

    Now as they build more with the next few phases , it will be more people on top of each other . That doesn’t necessarily mean that it will start to decline . It may not be our idea of rest and relaxation , but if your from downtown, that may be what you like ..... 

  4. That’s the whole point of Friday Harbour . For people downtown , who don’t even have to drive . One guy I was talking to there was sayin he sold his muskoka cottage . Bought in FH , he takes the Go from downtown , to south Barrie Go , they have a shuttle running there . Enjoys the weekend , takes train back , no traffic .

    Please beware of a stranded vehicle on the Tops A trail west of the intersection for the A/135 trails at Deep River. We are trying to locate the owner in order to make arrangements to have it removed.

    Nice 3 point turn .......

  6. It was something , that’s for sure . Blackstar had one too I belive . There were a few of us . 

     

    Was the first time the net exposed the problem across the board . Dealers were sayin “ what , there are no problems with belts blowing and vibrations “ , I don’t know why the sled is getting slower and slower .

    meanwhile on sled forums we were all comparing problems 

    Then the best , was the live web conference where they were had to face up that everyone was having problems . By 06 you couldn’t give away a 05 .

  7. Well I hate to disagree with you Poncho , I had a 900 fusion , and it was like everyone said , and I did a lot to make it good and better but in the end . It was what it was . 

    And the 700 CFI dragon , well there were a lot of issues , program updates , 800 CFI , well same . 

    I think Polaris was throwing everything they had after the Fusion 900 debacle .

    And finally after a lot of teething they finally got there 800 sorted out , but there is a lot of non puzzle related ones . Cat and Doo also had issues with 800 and yes the dreaded Mach 1000 , and there are lots for sale blown all the time . 

    Now they all have first year and second year issues , and someone has to be the guinea pig :) .

     

    Pete is right about the 600’s . Cat ,Poo and Doo’s 600’s were all good even in first years . Even the Fusion 600 was good .

    Leaf sprung skis worked for 20-30 years before independent suspensions came along.  :whistle:

    Yup , if it wasn’t for new technology we’d still be on leaf springs and bogie wheels . 

    Actually some of us still are ......

  9. I watched today about electric cars and how they are the future , how in the last ten years the massive improvements , market share , acceptance , fast charge speeds , and will only get better , faster and cheaper in price as the tech .

     

    Same with sleds , ya someone will say Gheeeeyyyyyy , until that electric sleds absolutely destroys they’re top speed . Over and over .

    I think I paid that back in 91 when I bought the same sled for my wife...Christmas present for her from me....she loved it...two years later I traded it for a brand new 93 Jag Z 440. To this day she says the 93 Z was the nicest sled she has every had....

    The Z is a great looking sled !

    Closest engine would probably be a Zuk from an F7. That cushion drive offset the engine so far to the left. But anything is possible.....

    For some reason I see a Blizzard 9700 motor going in there .....
