I just bought a brand new 08 Yamaha Venture MP.... (Have not even riden it yet and put any KM's on it)
OK, being as new as I am to sledding this is probably a pre-mature question to ask, but my cars and trucks all have aftermarket parts and chips in them. So I am jumping the gun I know but I...
I am going to Kananaskis next weekend (Kananaskis Lodge) for the wife’s company party up there..... I plan on taking my sled as during the day we have "free time" and at night is company dinners and parties. Anyone have any suggestions for places to go? I AM NEW so please nothing to extreme...
I just subscribed to it, thanks for the notice.......
I travel 2-3 weeks amonth for work so getting out is hard for me to do, BUT I still want to when I can......
I will have to think on that. I was kind of hoping to ride closer to home for my first couple of times out. I would hate to travel any distance and then make some stupid rookie mistake and not be able to sled or sled for an hour and need to head home.....
I want a chance to get used to my...
I have to strart checking this site more often... this is two times I missed an offer to ride.....
I would have gone but it is already 10:50 and you have left..... Thanks for the invite.
Sled is running...... Running good in fact......
Anyone in the Calgary area (within an hour or so of the city) let me know and lets go for a ride.... Remember I am a newbie and looking to learn.... nothing hard core right this min.
Anyone going anytime soon and mind a tag along? I am brand new to sledding. I have been a couple times but rented and had a guide. I decided to buy my own sled and keep going.
I will tell you now I am still unsure of my abilities and how to handle my machine so I am looking to stay close to...
IT STARTED!!!!
LOL... Well I pulled it off my trailer, I put it in my garage (un-heated), I took all the front covers off it and I put a base heater facing the engine. Left it for 4 hours and BAM!!!!!!
I left it running about 15 min, throttling it up and down........ I am going to start it...
I pulled it into my garage (off the trailer as it did not fit on the trailer) and I have the covers off and space heaters pointing right at the motor........
If this does not work I will take it back to the dealer (ouch, how do I pull it ON to a trailer?), but that is in Nanton so it is a fair...
No choke or primer or pull start......
I am calling the dealer again tomorrow...... I bought it 4 weeks ago and have not started it since and it has been parked outside..... Hence thinking it was a frozen fuel line....
Yesterday it would only turn over and nothing more, today I get a sputter...
I was just outside and it still will not start... The guy from the dealer told me to leave if for a few hours (3-4) and I have left it for 7 hours.......
I am not a happy camper.... Anyone want to buy a brand new sled with a dual trailer?
Kill switch is off, it will not even turn over if it was not.......
I called the dealer, they told me to put some gas line antifreeze in it and see if the fuel line was frozen..... I put some in today, leaving it over night to see if that works......
