    New to the Game

    Welcome. Now is a good time to buy. You will be able to find something pretty good for 3 to 4K. You have to find something that is right for you, that feels good to you, and will get you where you want to go. Do you have bike experience? Are you riding on the trails or in the mountains and...

    Hi All & Thx Ron for the invite!

    Welcome Corey. Glad to have your here. This site is going to be great. We really need to go riding sometime. Keep talking about it, but we never seem to do it.

    Newbie from Down Under

    Welcome!! You sound like my half brother. He lives in Brisbane and gets to Hong Kong on a regular basis. My half sister lives in Hong Kong. She is extremely green and is an excellent example of how money does not buy happiness. We are no longer close. Does your wife ride too or just...

    And another chapter begins.............

    grnboyz, your response made me have to re-read my post. My son never has been athletic even though he is 6'4" and strong, so he never rode with me in the mountains. I do miss riding with my daughter, but she was good and scared the hell out of me on a regular basis. I live in Testoseroneville...

    changing chain case oil

    7000 miles on an OEM 2001 800 crank, Amsoil Racing 2000, Amsoil Racing 2000 Chaincase oil versus 1400 miles on an OEM crank using cheap 2-stroke oil and gear oil, then about 1200 on updated crank using the same. I love my husband, but I listened to myself. Men do not know it all. Oh, the...

    moving

    HERE!!! Not only is Snowest slow, but the threads are slowing. Way too many categories now too. All this provided you can get on. I have learned to live outside the SW, I can learn to be addicted to S&M instead of SW.

    Hey Doug, your late................... as usual. This may be mostly AB and BC, but as Slowest gets slower and slower, both server wise and thread wise, S&M will pick it up. I see an S&M Copper Creek ride and BBQ in April. It has got to be more fun with some coming from AB and BC to join...

    New SPOT information

    Are you sure London Drugs has the Spot 2 for $120? Spot is selling the original Spot for $99 US. I too am looking to upgrade. I would not give this up for anything. I use it sledding, the husband used it when working out of town with no cell service, use it with the jeep, it works and gives...

    my pink sled in the works...

    Well you might as well break it down the rest of the way and do the tunnel, bulkhead, and steering post. That is awesome. I love it. You even did the chaincase cover. Who did all the powder coating? I had my tunnel done in Kelowna, but it was not done right and did not hold up. I had...

    girlfriend wants me to make her sled pink!

    Aftermarket hood in pink. I do not think you are going to get lucky enough to find too much in pink. I went purple and it was tough finding things in purple, but you could do the hood, maybe the grips, I doubt the hyfax (I have tried to get purple ones for years, they don't do them for a 151)...

    changing chain case oil

    Chain case oil is preferred. It should take 9 ozs. I use Amsoil, but the Polaris chain case oil is ok too. You can also use 80 weight gear oil in it; my husband does (maybe that is why he goes through the cranks). You can also use some additives (Lucas) which help to increase the lubrication...

    And another chapter begins.............

    Thank you. I will try to get some pics up when I get back to the computer. I am a strong believer that posts should have substance and although I can post to post, I would rather say something worth while. I have learned a lot over the years and still am, but I can also give back. Is this...

    hookin up a tach

    You can try it, but the Doo may very well have a different pulse than the Polaris Wedge. How to explain the pulse. It is an electronic pulse that is used to determine RPM, it is factored. For example the factor for the Polaris is 6, but the Doo may use a different factor to determine the...

    Purchase and install the heavier springs, turn the blocks for the springs to the heaviest setting, and have the shocks revalved to be stiffer.

    Extending My 144" to 153". How Hard?

    Moving the skid back will give you a better angle of approach (AOA), but you cannot move it back far enough to cover the 4.5+ inches. You could switch out your extensions for longer ones or pick up a set of 151 rails. Moving the skid back is also called a poor man's drop and roll. I used to...
