    2022 boat pics and memes

    I went up the NSR, I live on the NSR not far downstream, so I launch at home. The north fork road bridge is only a km or less up from the confluence of the ram and NSR anyway. Ya I've seen my fair few damaged boats from the ram, hopefully nobody got hurt. I used to go a couple times a year up...

    Jet boats

    Are you going to retro fit that into an existing sportjet boat? If you are I think your on a profitable business adventure, if you can make it affordable, and with the cost of new boats that's pretty easy

    Jet boats

    Ya, I know, I have no way to balance or anything afterwards but I am careful with what I'm doing. Haven't caused any damage yet, in 16yrs. I know what you mean about sharp vs smooth, mostly need no dings and it will work fine. I'll get ahold of you next time I need one done, I usually use...

    Jet boats

    FYI, I have a 6.2 DI with a 212. with a freshly rebuilt or new 3.4 I get 4050rpm WOT and it will not spin out on a WOT launch, however you pickup gravel once or twice and that impeller will spin out on a WOT launch until you take it out and at least sharpen the leading edge again. My...

    2021-2022 Revelstoke Area Updates

    Rode Frisbee Sat/Sun, snow was getting really setup and trails where smooth but froze rock hard. Kids had a blast, and Frisbee is real good terrain for them.

    Arctic Cat Magnetic Tether problems

    Thanks Chris, I had to use a relay on my viper due to the tether I got was the opposite normal than the sled required. The one on the apex matched up so I wasn't using one, I guess I should have thought about the amps through the tether. I will try the relay if I have any problems I will try...

    Arctic Cat Magnetic Tether problems

    Looking for knowledge on how a magnetic switch works? I bought 2 Arctic Cat magnetic tethers a few years ago and installed on my Yamaha viper and Yamaha apex. The Viper has worked flawless since day one. The Apex one has given be problems 3 times now. They end up stuck in a open or closed...

    2023 Yamaha mountain

    Hmmmm, I think I've been up most of the common chutes with anything from a Apex, Nytro, Nypex, Viper, Vipex... still haven't run a winder up a chute, rode Randys a few times. Its really hard to say what climbs best though, so much depends on setup, suspension and horsepower. The biggest...

    Sugar Bowl - Abraham Lake

    I rode all those places in the 90's and into the 2000's and the most snow you'll ever see is 2-3'. Hardly anyone knew what good snow was then, only a few guys used to talk about going to BC. I've also seen more avalanches in the eastern slopes than BC ten fold so tread lightly.

    Sidewinder MTX Gear Ratio

    Sorry, I was typing when dragonweld replied. I think your in the wheel house, you shouldn't need to gear up. I had a apex motor that pulled 85ish mph track speeds though. So, depends on how your winder is running I guess.

    Sidewinder MTX Gear Ratio

    I don't have any sidewinder experience, but I do have a lot of miles on boosted Yammys. So take this with a grain of salt, but what I recommend is to jiffy mark your drive clutch and see if you should change gearing and in what direction. So once on the hill in a good open area so your not...
