I remember looking at the one pulling my bud out. It looked super wide. I bet that sled didn't hit 1500rpm pulling his sled over the young trees and brush back up onto the trail. total beast!

SVT MXZ XRS Posted November 2, 2019 Author Share Posted November 2, 2019 15 hours ago, DriftBusta said: I’m going to look into an aftermarket LED for the turbo. Ski Doo can suck a dick for how much they want for their LED accessories. I had one on my Freeride, and it was nice, but not worth 300 fish.. I used to love to stud, now...meh. Plus I’m more into deeper lug tracks these days. For hard trail running, sure give me a 1.25 with some studs and about 18 scratch lines... where aboots in Canada? The only reason I went with the Doo lights is I got the $500 voucher from the dealer what I bought my new one. Wasn't a whole lot of stuff I needed so I went with the Auxiliary bright LEDs and the pull start. I ordered the under headlight auxiliary from JayCox. The fit and finish on them is second to none. 13 hours ago, Angry ginger said: Jessica I'm gonna be a smoking hot ginger bitch 1 hour ago, Zambroski said: “..only trailered to the UP for plush riding...” Yuh....I’ll spring the extra 2 G’s for the zero mile one from CC. Looking at used race sleds should be something everybody does for once....just for fun. “Raced but, in really good shape. Just a few dings here and there. Zero miles on freshened up motor.” Those ads crack me up. "Up miles". I wish you could reply to those ads. Miles are miles dumbass 59 minutes ago, steve from amherst said: Covers are so expensive now , just buy a used enclosed. I'll never go back to an open trailer ever again. 56 minutes ago, Zambroski said: Exactly...and even under warranty...just give me the fucking parts, I'll do it myself. Sometimes that's not possible tho. These newer sleds with DI all the electronics sometimes need a dealer to work on. I'm fine with that 49 minutes ago, Kev144 said: I tried to do thjat with my 16 poo and the dealer would not give me the parts, they had to stop doing that. too many issues apparently Yep. To many people fucked their shit up and then had to be brought in anyways and dealer had to do the work after all. Cost the manufactures even more money. 43 minutes ago, Zambroski said: They probably did it for your own good. Like when Ben stole the tool kit from Tool Kit's purchase. He didn't want to feel responsible. Plus with those little string bean IT arms and Barb like hands, they don't want him getting a hang nail or a small scratch and ending up in the ER. 40 minutes ago, Kev144 said: have you had a warranty claim in the 400 miles youve put on that sled in the years youve owned it? 35 minutes ago, Zambroski said: Had two on my doo. Just got parts from my dealer. They win bigly doing this.....assuming they know you can fix it properly. That might be your problem. Race sleds don't come with warranties. They figure, if you own a race sled, you should be able to fix it yourself. My '04 did, but it was trail converted. They took off the preheat button, fuel selector and high compression domes. Also swapped the small tank for a full size clear one. 22 minutes ago, Zambroski said: I told this story here but, we passed a couple of tank Doo's a couple years ago...then, about two corners up my buddy put his sled in the "pickers". They stopped and pulled him out....then gave him a rag to wipe the egg off his face. They are pretty much the same footprint as the non-two ups but, it looked YUUUGE and it tugged his sled out of the trash like it was nothing. it was impressive actually. 21 minutes ago, Anler said: If you really want to step up your game you should get an MXZ XRS...

SVT MXZ XRS Posted November 2, 2019 Author Share Posted November 2, 2019 Got some goodies last night at the show DeWalt batteries are on the charger now. Also, got a text last night from the wife while I was at the show. "Hey, _________ sent me an email and said to have you get ahold of him. He wants to come get that '99" Long story short, I'm now down to 3 sleds. Kinda bitter sweet for me, but it wasn't going to be ridden much anymore so it was time for her to go.
