It's still Dec.1st. Ill be goin for a ride around the Dec 16-21st. Depends who's all around.

You are "legally" required to have a licence plate mounted that is easily visible, and carry ins/reg papers with you. Doesn't matter if there is a stock licence plate holder or not. The legislation doesnt say that it has to be on the front or rear, just "clearly visible". I have seen...

I think i paid $70 for my pass. And it goes up to $80 after Dec.1st.

While you're at Mark's Work Warehouse, try on the new Baffin Winter Rubber boots. I bought them last year and they are pretty much identical to the Dunlops, but they were WAY more comfortable for me. Same temperature rating, etc. But they have better grip for ice.

It annoys me that people keep on saying "Cops should focus on the real criminals". You don't think they aren't? The DOT Officers have a specific job; they deal with Commercial, all other motor vehicles and safety. Sherriffs in Alberta have a specific job; highway traffic enforcement I have...

This is from November last year, but itll do.

I bought my 09 700 for this reason in 08/09. I knew the 800's had some issues, so I opted for the 700. Its a strong motor, and performs right beside the 800 when both were running strong. A lot of people just want BIG power, so they go with an 800. Im glad I went with the 700 and I haven't...

I usually alternate a-arms. Think i've replace one more on the left than right though. Only went through 1 last year :), but the other is starting to bend. I thought people preferred sidehilling on the left side? Thats where I started out the best, now it doesn't matter. I should design...

You'll spend $50k building a mod sled, but you wont spend a few bucks getting a VIN #? How much they charge in BC for that? I don't recall it costing me much, or anything to put a VIN on a home built trailer. I could see insuring a MOD being a PITA, cause the insurance company would laugh when...

Why wouldn't you register your sled? It cost like $45? I don't hesitate to ins/reg my sled, its just like any of my on-road vehicles. It cost me less than $275 total (Reg. and liability/theft/fire), I think its a good piece of mind, especially when our sleds are worth more than most peoples...

Dammit! I'm still up in Fort St. John, doubt ill be back for tomorrow :rant:

Haha, the same thread every year. I'm always impatiently waiting for early November to stock up on this stuff. It means its sleddin' season!! I'd rather run this shell oil than Amsoil. Ive used Advance Ultra on all of my sleds, the only other oil I've used the odd time is the Polaris stuff...

Sounds like you got it planned out right. When you're ready to go sleddin, make a post in the Valemount riding section. I'm sure there are people on here that would be glad to show some new sledders the ropes. I've met quite a few riders from this site and snowest and they were happy to have...

Nowhere did I say I'm an expert. kingbooney, I couldn't have said it better myself, I completely agree. Finally a post that may be useful to someone :). Which is more reliable is an impossible debate.

The DOO is more reliable? HA!! I hope no one takes any of the info in this thread seriously; sounds like everyone's an expert.

Shiny, looks good I went the opposite way, and just got my whole deck powdercoated Black. Just gotta put some new plywood on; also stained black ;);)

Last time I was there most of those rocks were covered (the end of last April). But I did finish off my a-arm and shock on the way out of there, lol. (Not the best area to be sidehilling in when the rocks are just barely covered)

Ya, the trail and the BC side is closed until Dec.1st. BUT... some idiots have already gone in; they are going to ruin it for everyone!!!:nono:

Windsor RV is the Dealer in Grande Prairie. I picked up some new boots last week. They JUST got their shipment out on the floor last week. Should be a good selection, they were waiting for a few more jacket shells though.

I just winterized my trailer (never done it before). It was pretty simple when there is an owners manual to follow. I drained the fresh water tank at the drain tap on the tank, then bypassed the tank) Then I opened up the taps and ran the water pump for a little bit until mostly air was...
