Gold Member XCR INDY Posted December 20, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted December 20, 2021 Got the new sled studded last week. Finished servicing the ‘19, replaced the drive bearings, new slides, changed a couple of idler wheel bearings, repacked the rest and cleaned the power valves. Got a chance to run the 650 today, engine is smooth and seems to be very responsive. Shock valving is pretty firm. It’s going to be a great NY,VT tight trail sled. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet sleds 👍 agree the 650 is a tight woods killer. How much snow you got in NY? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much, Maybe 3to4 inches. I’m right on the Ny Vt border by Fair Haven Vt. Got early bird vast for all the sleds, hoping Tabor/ Woodford area will get some rideable snow by New Years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not a bad drive at all from here (Ellington) Come to Jackman sometime, I've been all over and you can't beat it for range and amount of riding options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im in East Granby now so same thing takes me 1hr45 to get to Woodford from my house. Still good riding, they always get snow. Weekends are nuts like always but Weekdays is awesome. With my young kids its hard to get away for a few days so day trips work best for me. But Maine is definitely something I need to experience.. Unfortunately this year trail 100 from Woodford to Somerset Reservoir and Dover will be closed. That is going to be a huge hit and make it stupid busy on 7 with nowhere else for people to go. 😒 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved there in the late 90s, built a house on Jonathan Drive, actually moved just over the town line in Broad Brook 7-8 years ago now Grew up in Vernon-Manchester back to Vernon then to Ellington.

They were great friends with the Carons, and their dad and i played in the same golf league. Did you know Greg got both his legs blown off in Afghanistan? He's back and fine, but went through hell getting back to the world and adjusting. Played golf with him recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was funny playing a round with Greg and his dad a couple years back, Greg was smoking weed and had tunes going in the golf cart he whole round. He was talking about his camo colored artificial legs, and how they were specially designed for golf, so he could twist. He's explaining all this to me, puffing on a big joint. His dad is as straight laced as they come, so it was a little odd to say the least. I'd say he was probably ok with it, his boy certainly paid his dues and shouldn't have to answer to anyone. I see the Cleverdon boys all the time, Mark is pretty high up in the S.Windsor PD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both look great compared to the Polaris aftermarket one. I like the extra lower protection with the BMP and Polaris bumpers tho almost like a skid plate.
