    New 2015 left overs

    you can try their websites but they are usually not up to date. It's good to know what you're looking for. Every dealer has different inventory and the prices were all over the board. Best thing is get on the phone and start calling around.

    New 2015 left overs

    My original plan was to keep riding my 600, and eventually do the 660 kit. But instead of doing all that work, it was easier and cheaper just to buy the 800 and start with a new sled again. As for pricing, paid under $10k, OTD, including GST and Polaris 3 yr warranty. After calling around, some...

    New 2015 left overs

    Well with all the left overs out there, I thought to do my part in keeping the economy going, picked up a 2015 RMK. Nothing fancy, just the regular hohum model (if you can call that regular). Actually prefer some of the features over the Pro, so figured I'd give it a try. True it's not the new...

    bc sled registration

    My registration is up in August, but don't renew until it's time to ride and the cost is usually around $30. Depending on your month, it's a way to save a couple bucks.

    2013 Polaris RMK 600 155"....Whats the difference between the PRO?

    Basically the same machine. Engine, clutches, track, suspension, running boards, seat. Biggest tech change is the quickdrive, otherwise it's all about saving a couple pounds. I believe 18#'s diff. Different: 1) Bonded A-Arms (PRO) vs. time tested Welded A-arms 2) QuickDrive™ belt drive (PRO)...

    princess auto sled lift onsale $148.88

    I too picked one of these up a few years ago when on sale. Still works today, and actually use it for my daily parking when sled not in use. It's not your super duper professional lift, but for the $$$, it works quite well. I too have figured out a better support for the back end so it sits more...

    Snowmobile Boot Review

    You do have to try them on since everyone has a different feel. But for me, I have the Klim Adrenaline. Two seasons and still like new. Keep my feet very dry, and super cumfy. It does seem expensive, paying $200+ for a pair of boots, but after using them, I should have done it long ago.

    Gloves...

    I have Klim Togwotee. At first I thought I found a great glove. They feel great, keep warm and dry, but they fall apart. Klim gave me a new pair under warranty, but the second pair have also worn out very quicky. Again the leather palm is garbage. And I only wear while riding. When unloading...

    Sled maintenance lift

    I bought one of those from PA on sale, around $150. That is what my sled usually sits on while parked in the shed. After a couple years, it still works fine. Only thing I did was install a wider bar on the front that holds the wheels, makes it more stable. It looks pretty close to the one above

    Top speed......... curious?

    The speedo is never on the display, so have no idea on speed. However the last time I did a history check, the highest registered speed was 68 mph.

    Anyone ever bought a sled in a crate? (ie: no $600 dealer PDI)

    good point on the computer stuff. With todays electronics, that's one thing you don't get in the home garage

    Anyone ever bought a sled in a crate? (ie: no $600 dealer PDI)

    Don't know all the details any more, but many moons ago I bought 2 new in the crate. It was some end of season deal so they just wanted them gone. No special circumstances, still had warranty. Here's a thread on Snowest, where the guy purchased one. Maybe he could give you more specifics. New...

    where to buy clutch spring

    My 13 Pro RMK 600 uses a blk/grn primary spring, part #7042083. Is the OEM the best option or is there an aftermarket to match up, and where to buy?

    Cable Locks, chains, etc. Do they work?

    Come on you guys, no one has brought up the old cover trick. Put the Doo cover on the Pro and nobody pays attention to it.......:rollinglaugh: OK, joking aside, when traveling, the hitches / slider have padlocks, superclamp padlock, and heavy chain through suspension. The chain I have is some...

    😡***Beware kijiji scam on '14 summit $10500 calgary***

    Scammers will always be out there, cause there's always some one falling for the sales pitch. Funny all you guys say people are stupid, but some just are too gullible. Last year we stopped by our relatives, and the nephew was all excited to show me the new car he was buying. His parents were...

    What is the best jacket and pants to go with

    I have the Motorfist Big Mtn jacket. It has some insulation, sort of in between the shell type and the bulky insulated jacket. Has kept me dry and warm last season. Open the vents on those warm spring days. Overall happy with the jacket. Just replaced my "yamaha" Goretex bibs that I got in...

    Polaris IDIOTS (Tether Instructions)

    Re: Polaris RETARDS (Tether Instructions) There's actually nothing wrong with the switch, but gathering the point of this thread is the stupid instructions. You think polaris could update that 1 page of data. I got my tether a couple years ago and looks like the paper hasn't changed. I got...

    How much should I increase my jet size after adding twin pipes?

    Many moons ago, I had a 98 with Keihin carbs, and PSI twin pipes. Besides the main jet, the pilot jet was also changed to make it run nicer. I seem to keep all these papers filed away. Here's a jetting and clutching chart that I used and found they were pretty darn close. Only diff was the...

    Swap Meet

    I spent a few bucks at the swap meet on Sat.. It was a small event, but lots of good parts. The old machines were interesting to check over. I went mostly for the swap meet, but still had a walk about inside at the ski stuff. Kudos to you guys for putting on the swap. Hopefully it will be a...
