racinfarmer Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 19 minutes ago, Not greg b said: The mileage magically dropped over the last 8 years from when I had it. It must be from the and amsoil that has been exclusively run in it. Someone at some point put the time into changing the speedo, replacing the missing/wrecked graphics and recoated the rails/spindles. How I know it was my old sled. It still has the holes in the bumper I drilled for a bag, it still has the multiple bag mounts on the tunnel sides for the original bag, it has the big scratch on the running board brace from when I flipped it on cement, it has the grip tape on top of the tunnel I installed to cover 6 holes I blasted in it to mount a rack, and has the incorrect skis for the sled I bought cheap to sell the sled with. I think the skis were off a 2011 or 2012 lxr. I would find it hard to believe there are 2 2014 rr out there with the same features. This is the second time I have seen it for sale in 8 years. I think the person that is selling it now has no idea the speedo was flipped because it had about the same amount of mileage on it when I sold it. I like all the sno-x and XC sleds that are never raced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on where you are from. This was the sled my bride rode, and I also let friends ride it. She does not ride that much. I will put her on my Catalyst next winter when she rides and I will ride my 22. Took me one text to sell my 18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally would rather buy a sled from someone that raced the fucked out of it than a 3rd owner claiming never raced. The racer would have fixed everything that was broke before the last race it was run in and they can tell you the last time the engine was opened up.

Deephaven Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 True. You can see the physical damage either way. It is the maintenance you can't see and if someone is worth a shit they have done it all otherwise they aren't really racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Jackson Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 We bought a sled from Tim Tremblay that he told us it had never been raced but he also said that it was his practice sled that probably got beat worse than his race one. Stand up guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've done what seems like everything else to the 6000's, but most mostly crack pistons and drop lower con-rod bearnings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might get lucky with a cancelled spring order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 (edited) Whatever displacement it is I'm hoping for 170+hp in NA form with exceptional responsiveness. Cat needs to be a class leader if they're hoping to take back marketshare. Edited August 1, 2023 by Premium 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
