Fireball 440 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Interesting discussion I had the other day. Which powersport get's the most use for you? Since I got my first Side X Side in 2012, the RZR always sees more mileage than my sled. I've ridden about 9,000 miles in that time in the Ranger's and RZR's, while only about 6,000 sled miles. That's given winter is 3 months out of the year and SxS's are used year round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mag6240 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 No comparison for me - sled gets between 4000 and 6000+ every year. I don’t think I’ve put 1000 miles on an ATV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 I'm 3000 to 4000 a year on sleds and don't have a ATV or UTV. Have a CJ5 jeep by our place up Nth used primary on forest roads and fire lanes but has been known to be parked at some of the local establishments up Nth after a ride through the woods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member 800renegaderider Posted April 18, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted April 18, 2021 Back when I rode dirtbikes/quads be lucky if we did 30 miles a day spent most our time screwing around in sand pits hill climbs and jumping stuff. Sleds we always seemed to mostly trail ride with some off trail mixed in here and there. I’d say winter miles definitely more for me. A point to bring up is there is wayyy more sled trails to ride than dirtbike/quad trails around here especially back when I got out of dirtbike/quad riding. A few more dirtbike/quad trails now but still no comparison to sled trails. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinfarmer Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 About the same, but if you including windshield miles to get to the track, the dirt cars. Only trailered to ride or race sleds twice this winter, compared in 8-12 times last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snatchslayer Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Didn't ride last winter but I usually accumulate aboot 1500 miles. Atv sees maybe 30. This year will be different tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not greg b Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I put 7000 miles on my car last year. My sled never saw snow. I am pretty sure I want to dump the sled now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnstang Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I race hare scrambles and enduro and I have way more seat time on the bike than the sleds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) On 2nd Rzr since 2011. Probably 10-12k since then. Sleds, I do very few trail trail miles anymore, some years 0 miles, though had snow at home this year so got 500 or so. 2013 trail sled only has 4000 miles on it. Most sled riding is out west. 6 or 7 days in a row each month. Doesn't equate to many miles, have just under 2000 miles on 18 RMK. Time for pistons and check bottom end. Back up 2012 RMK has 4000ish miles but hasn't been ridden but a day or 2 since 18. Actually I guess miles are close to the same ..... Damn trucks is what gets all the miles...

Cat45 Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Put 4k on my 20 ranger last year in 4 months. 1300 on my 19 zr since new. I even live on the trail in bayfield county where we always have good snow to ride. Getting harder to justify keeping the sled around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamgreen02 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Around 2,000 on my sled this winter which is less than normal. Late start and early snow melt really shortened the season. 1,200 miles on my atv last year. The season is longer but I don't take as many trips. Nowhere to really ride locally under an hour and a half drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burndog Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 would think if your challenging "tuff terrain" on a four wheeler counting the miles would be pointless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
