    British Columbia and the future of sledding needs your help

    I buy an annual membership to the Eagle Valley Snowmobile Club every year for the past 8 seasons. Went to BCSF website today to purchase a BCSF pass also but it looks like there is no link for that club. Is the BCSF registration included with my club membership? Thanks

    XM mountain bars

    I use a set of Treadways with a 6" riser on my summit. Like this set up so far, maybe should of went an inch shorter and stuck with factory height but I'm happy at 6.0'. I'm at 9" total rise right now and factory is 8" rise. You could try a flat bar which is about a 2.5" drop and if you don't...

    XM mountain bars

    I have my mountain bar turned around so it points forward instead. Works well for me so you don't smack into it all the time. Upper bar clamps/mountain bar mounts are not directional specific.

    limiter strap adjustment

    I'm interested to see how it works out too cause the 163 T3 was a cat walking monster. Last year I swapped out to the heavier torsion springs though and it was the best thing for that sled (and cheap, like $80). I found it was perfect as you could still cat walk nicely when you pulled back but...

    Couple Pics my Buddy @ripitup84 took while snowboarding in Kananaskis Saturday morning August 22nd 2015. He said there was 5-7"still by the time he got up there and hot already so probably melted down a bit. Thought you guys might appreciate this.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    This problem did end up being a bent driveshaft. I used a dial indicator to measure its out of round while still in the sled and it was 60/1000" out. New shaft showed up in Sicamous Thursday morning. Swapped it out and rode Thursday afternoon and Friday yet before having to head back to work...

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Yeah I did spin it up but its not really noticeable on the stand. Even when riding it was a fairly faint vibration but I could definitely tell something changed right after I had a fairly hard impact with a wind swept snow drift. I'm going to pull the brake cover off tomorrow morning and spin...

    Thanks Deaner. Will take a look at those too.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Antisieze. Yes definitely. Hopefully comes off easily enough cause its new but I've worked on one other before and it was a pain. The way I ride it will be me taking that rotor off the next time :rolleyes:. I'm going to drop down to a 20 tooth upper at the same time.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Good call Tex, I will. I'll be working on it at Rene's with his mechanic probably, so hopefully that will help the cause.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    I'm fairly certain its a bent driveshaft. Sucks I don't have enough time to check it out for sure with my work schedule this week, so I need to order one today to get it in time for my ride. I just talked to the dealership about warranty and I live 1200kms from where I ordered the sled, I would...

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Checked the drivers this morning and neither of them have spun, they're in time and can't see a physical bend in the driveshaft but I should try pulling off the disk cover and watching the disk for wobble while I spin the track. Mine definitely won't be that bad but might be able to see it...

    Good to know. I will check the drivers tonight.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Maybe. That's easy to check. Thanks. I think they would be too tight to spin but worth a look.

    Know I shouldn't be ditch banging with a 3" 163 but was just trying out my new handlebar setup and rear torsion springs before my trip next week.

    T3 Light vibration in drivetrain at 30km/h plus

    Hi Guys. I have a 2015 163 T3 with about 300 kms on it. I went for a quick 15 min ride down the ditch of the highway #1 this past weekend. The snow as fairly hard and only existed in the drifted in areas. Ride was going good than I catwalked out of a 3' deep drift and hit another hole in the...

    2015 Ski-Doo Summit T3 Stock can and AAEN Silencer Vid

    Still haven't had this can out on the snow but up on the stand aligning the track tonight and gave her quite a bit more up to about 7500rpm a few times and it is far louder than I expected wound up. Definitely not a quiet can.

    2015 Ski-Doo Summit T3 Stock can and AAEN Silencer Vid

    Haha. The fabled 2015 light weight can. I was probably going to go lighter than even the revised factory one anyway so didn't really bother me that they kept the suitcase for another year. I haven't had it out yet with the can, so don't know what it sounds like yet under load and at higher...
