This is actually who I got the idea from :)
There is an auto parts shop on 16th ave, in Calgary, that has these in stock... can't remember the name or address though.

Last year on May Long wknd, coming down out of the Mines, I had one buzz down the valley behind me and over top of me before I knew what the hell was going on.... haha
He wasn't more than 50ft above me when he went by, and then he rose up again and was gone ! I cursed him and had a little...
Last ride out, I was seeing 45-48mph pulling around 7500 rpm.... still in break in but only about 15% left so guessing it's not making a huge difference any more. Should've turned in the shockwave a turn or two to increase the revs but it was the last cpl pulls of the day :)
This is on my 174...
I have found my 174 a bit heavy in the front end, when climbing. Seems like it should come up a bit more than it really is. With sled flat on the ground, my limiter straps are looser than I've seen these things over the years. ( from dealer )
But still seems to climb like a billy goat. I...
Trail into the Mines is broke in a cpl times now. Got up to 100HP hill on Sat. snowing too hard to see anything past that point. We were out a month ago and made it down to the next valley below the glacier, but snow level was too low to go down through the trees to the meadow. Still needs...
Well, it was worth the drive and quick trip into the Mines again, just to see the trail and gauge how the snowfall is coming along....
We made it through the toughest spots again, with any real issues. 3 of us went in to the waterfall and then up to 100 HP hill, but visibility had dropped to...

looking to ride with someone or a group who's out tomorrow.
anyone interested ??? :)
cheers !

We usually make it down the BURN area in the Spring. It's quite an adventure getting back out of there in big snow. It can be a great little ride down there just exploring down the valley either way. :)
Ended up parking at one of the bigger corners... around 29 I think. But had one 4 place trailer so didn't want to get too deep in there and have issues. Pushed in with 2 trucks and decks to that point.
Spent all weekend giving my T3 174 the gears( so to speak)... :)
Absolutely love the way it handles the steep and deep !!! Broke trail for a day or two and it handled the bottomless just as I hoped it would. The next two days were spent making miles in colder weather and set up snow, and it...
