Lol, I was wondering how long it would be before mnstang piped in with his electrophobia talk.

The web site says it closed, I picked my brother up on Friday, he is in Barron county, trails were groomed, but he said they are closed. The gates are open, but trails are closed

I'm masking up this weekend, trails should be awesome, plus it will keep my face warm.

This week on Pelican lake snowmobile flys through the air and parks itself in the the garage. 1588696_1640790245959_trans.mp4

I haven't snow checked a sled since 95,now I buy off the rack/dealer stock and I'm an impulse buyer. Last February I went to the dealer for some parts and seen a new 850 all black and shiny, bought that and put the parts on hold. But I was excited for that XLT, I new it wouldn't be all that fast, but it sure rode alot nicer then my old 650.

I think for $185 bucks you can get a recoil starter kit for a Skidoo. Not that much more than a new battery.

We tried that skidoo rope pull start last year when it was -26 below, it didn't work, broke that little plastic clip on the first pull, the battery was brand new, unstalled the day before and fully charged up. Had to take the battery out and bring it inside to warm it up, started fine the rest of the day. Next cold snap the same thing, no start.

You should never start the cat until all the skidoos are up and running 🏃‍♀️

The dealer had that on for me when I picked it up. He said, I put a different windshield on it, he didn't think I would like the one that they came with. He was right on the mark.

The North Shore will be good this weekend with the dump of snow they got up there and more snow coming today I think you will be having a great time. I was there Monday and in some spots they started to groom.

North Shore trail pictures from today. Lots snow and groomed trails. Just a couple of sleds out and about.

Are you thinking like the I 500 race that used to start in Winnipeg and finished in St Paul. I think the starting location and direction changed up over the years,but it was 3 day race on the trails, I remember the signs on the North Shore trail after one of the races.

The first stock run for the cat was quick, I'm thinking a hotdog wrapper blew across the track and trigger the timing lights a little early.

I seen the same thing with NGK plugs on one of my friends sled. Loose plugs from not crushing the washer, watched him put new plugs in, I could tell he was unsure if it was tight, hold on give me that wrench, nope not tight. He got lucky the plug never blew out the first time, we just noticed it while checking out the sled. If things look good after you pull the head, I would just put a new head on and run it.
