  1. Hey Fozzy, You happen to have a non-stock exhaust system on that sled of yours..... I think you are correct on the other account as well though. People who own these lands are likely getting less and less tolerant as the years go buy (like most of us do), and it is their land, so they have the right too. Now take a piece of land that is just sold, I am sure most new owners of that land are way less likely to say yes to using my land vs. business as usual......what is in it for ME to let YOU use MY land, and then disrespect me & my land if I do say yes with loud exhaust, trespassing where you should not be, leaving your garbage, etc...... Plus just look around at the increased lack of respect for others in general or their land in this case. Heard plenty of aftermarket exhausts on the weekend, but I would guess only a couple of them were the extreme ones that echo though the bush. Cannot say I saw much garbage though on the trails.
  2. Same unit I have....the moisture you have is caused by what you brought in i.e. snow on cars. I think Irv was referring to moisture caused by the heater itself and what I was referencing, like when you run a salamander propane heater in a garage, everything gets caked in water, from the moisture in the gas though or the example of an RV, but that is just crappy insulation & no vapour barrier, unless you buy one the trailers rated for winter use, which I assume come with the extra protection.....I think Smokin george had one that was winter rated.
  3. I used that before I installed the heater I have now, it worked to heat the garage up, the problem was the recovery rate, it took too long to reheat the garage after you opened the door, etc....but was far easier to hook up than the heater I have now!
  4. What type of heater do you have? Sounds like similar to me, but propane vs. natural gas. I do not have moisture issues, so I am curious. I do not have cars in the garage though, so maybe I am not introducing as much external moisture as you are.....just snow from my sled, when I actually ride that is..... I do run a fan in the garage when heater is on, most of the time....and when I do get puddles of water from melting snow, I usually brush it outside. I also have mine on 24/7, dropped down at night to 10 and other times when I am home, around 15, depending if I or the kids are doing stuff or playing in the garage. In floor heat is the ticket if it was a new build, dries up all the water from the floor up.
  5. You are the best, Aaron!
  6. My garage is well insulated and vapour barrier.
  7. Exhausted / vented outside for mine, so zero moisture issues. Electric heaters should have zero moisture issues.

    LOL....one of the nice things now that I am not as pumped about riding as I used to be, the roller coaster weather does not bug me as much

    Just a bit to add some moisture to the snow that will come this week....side effect of snow falling when it is cold, it has no moisture! It is for the best, right......
  10. For some reason I did not think your 900T came with that. About time to update you avatar perhaps......
  11. Mr Heater gas heater is what I have and use. Considered the radiant gas heater as well, but it was I think double at the time and did not see many benefits to it at the time. It is very nice having a heated garage.
  12. Looks great, George!
  13. Irv, You have a trailer, use it.....Kinmount is not far and if you are real nice, you might get a VIP parking spot!
  14. If an aftermarket exhaust does in fact meet the same db level, have the manufacture acquire the stamp of approval stating it is accepted.....I am sure a cost associated with the process that most do not want to bare or need to the way things are right now. Heard some obnoxious sleds today with exhaust systems......4-strokes is a low level drone, that I would think gets annoying over time, than the bark of the 2-stroke that echo's through the bush....
  15. Just go for a ride instead.
  16. Similar route for me yesterday, trail was bad until you got past minden. Saw that car racing as well, pretty neat.
  17. Where did you end up parking in Kinmount and how was the B on your return trip? When I pulled out in the afternoon, the lot I parked at was now full of rigs and Monck road was now also full of rigs.
  18. Rode your area yesterday, I think (Kinmount).....could use more snow for sure, but not bad all in all. Seems to be a rock hard ice base in most area's, so just add more snow!

    Heated gloves

    Maybe it is time for that extra tall windshield..... I do not I could stand riding with mitts, I just cannot see having the same control. I have been thinking about getting those Doo muffs, if I actually get out this year and I find my hands not warm, I might break down. I have a really good pair of Klim gloves too that use to work great, but ever since my hands got too cold that one year in QC, my hands just are not the same when it comes to the cold.

    All they have to do is play some stinkin hockey a few days a week for just over half the year, what could possibly get into their heads that can make the wheels fall off I am sure whatever it is, will work it self out and we will maybe see one round of playoff hockey with the leafs....maybe 2 rounds if we are real lucky!

    Have the wheels fallen off, injuries caught up or something else???
  22. There have been lots of discussion in the last few years regarding LED lights and not having the heat of your traditional lights, but look around at the cars on road now a days, there are a lot more LED lights being used on a lot more cars that do not seem to have the issue.....perhaps a different type of lens is used to decrease snow and such from sticking....not too sure. The lights on my trailer that seem to have the biggest issue with getting caked in the road sleet are the front corner markers, that are not the LED lights, but that is it.
  23. I have some led on my Triton trailer, can't recall any issues with them.
  24. I do not think most realize the number of small snow covered bridges that you cross on sled...sure there are the more obvious ones, but there are a lot of small ones, not sure where a line is drawn though on what rules on followed based on what size of bridge.
