    Anyone Know Where To Get a Diamond Drive?

    Spoke to my buddy and he's still got the '08 case(and the mangled gears on the wall of shame!!) says you can have it for sure but it's gonna take 72 lucky lager, a bottle of Irish cream and the ticket stub from the last concert you saw (odd request I know but he's trying to one up me for random...

    Valemount Crystal Ridge SledSki Area

    Awesome effort and thanks to everyone involved. Wanted to bring the family to show them how spectacular it is but always felt guilty about leaving them in hotel room entire trip. Only thing I'd like to know is there any chance of a spring uphill competition event, Jackson Hole of the North type...

    Brett Rasmussen Switch to BRP

    Rasmussen's move has definitely influenced my thoughts as he is a stand up guy committed to the sport regardless if monetary influence played a roll. Wasn't fortunate enough to hook a demo ride but I don't exactly believe everything I read on the net.

    Brett Rasmussen Switch to BRP

    Lol, fair enough. True the '09 Cat was not without issue, required upgrades to DD before I even thought of heading to the hills and it is a bit of a maintenance pig but was aware of the requirements when I purchased. Rode an '03 high mark extreme before it for 6 years without any issues except...

    Brett Rasmussen Switch to BRP

    Must be great to live in a world where you can spend $15g on blind faith and to hell with things like fit and finish, ergonomics or ease of service, not like a fella's going to put his faith into a machine to go 100miles plus into the back country every trip and not blow a weekend because some...

    Brett Rasmussen Switch to BRP

    Can't wait to see how the XM reacts with Brett behind the bars. Thinking of retiring the M8 to spare status this year, definitely don't like the new ProClimb, going to be a long month until new models start showing up at local dealers so a fella can make the Doo/Poo decision.

    Rode Flat Top yesterday, bluebird day and could climb anywhere you pointed, pretty tracked up, could use some fresh but trail in was in good shape, you'll need scratchers to the lake though.

While sleds on its side put front bolts in first, do not tighten all the way, place back on track shiny side up, if you got a buddy handy have them take the...

    Another lesson on the importance of diamond drive maintenance..

    My buddy just bought '10 M8 with only 500km, advised to pull the DD to check this bearing and it was toast, doubt it would have made it through his first ride, saved a lot of time and money.

    secondary on 2008 m1000

    They're all like it, either start it up and hit the throttle couple times or if that makes you nervous just give the track a spin by hand, it'll settle back into place.
