the 200 will probably still be worth more in two years... ;)

I remember when a ZRT 600 wasn't that much brand new

 

Yeah, that's why my kid rides an Indy 340. My buddy bought a like new zr200 for his kids a couple years ago for 3500 and I thought he was crazy at that price.

A sno-x sled is pretty much top of the list of sleds I won't buy for pretty much anything made after 2008 or so.

if you look at the 2018 AC SX, it shares a crapload of parts with the 2009-2011 

@fortune46x and I were comparing some notes last winter

not that I'd want an SX for trail riding, just doing wheelies and posing in some sweet FXR gear 9_9

hell, even @Zambroski dumped his 17 SX and bought an RXC  :lol:

I saw on HCS that he's on a "mustard bucket" these days.

I'm trying to finger out WTF happened here. 2023 RXC

Claimed 400 miles and "no indication of bottoming or strange sounds."

I saw that one. Either it was assembled wrong from the factory or someone took it part and didn’t put it together right. Common thing when people take things apart and don’t know what they are doing. I remember rebuilding a skid in a parking lot back in the day on trip when a person didn’t put things back together properly

I stared at that for a while last night trying to figure it out on ACTR. He had to have had it apart at some point and reinstalled wrong it was obviously flipped at some point. The odds of it flipping once in the sled are about 1% the odds of it flipping and then going back to correct on it’s own are a resounding 0%

I've been trying to figure it out myself. 

I do feel bad for the guy, but to not hear or notice anything?

The more I look at it, the worse it gets.

Look at the cap on the shock.  That fucker is cracked!  I've fucked some shit up before.  That takes, well, I'm not sure.

The trick is to call it a waffle so you don't get booted off Facebook

FWIW no one ever hears that.  I've seen it a bunch of times over the years, most of the time the customer is totally oblivious.  Sled in the shop right now 18 turbo, stock exhaust (real quiet on the trails) 

Whoever worked on it last was close....  the "fork" that holds the rear shock was correct (up and away from the track on the bottom) but they managed to put the shock in upside down, resi on top. Damaged the shock and track.

Customer didn't have any idea, he brought the sled in because "the clutch was acting up, and he could smell the belt burning"  Drove it in his trailer, but now it wouldn't move.

This isn't the first time somone has had an impact and let all the oil out of their chaincase, and swore they never hit anything....
 

But it is the first time I've ever seen the reverse chain get so hot that it stretches enough to find its way between the main drive chain and sprocket.

Those people have a lot of fun when the government gets involved. 

Running an illegal lottery/raffle doesn't go over well when the Big G doesn't get their cut.

I can only imagine.

Having thought about it, I guess I could see it on a RXC.  You have more track noise and the exhaust is louder right out of the box.

There was someone trying raffle off a firecat for like 9 grand and was in Canada. They got mad when I said the government probably isn’t going to like an international lottery being run
