Ya, like I said I wasn't sure if its the same course. You suggest its not, good to know. But eitherway its a very valuable as you said.

I'm in Vernon, I haven't gone to Greystokes and Big White areas in atleast 10yrs, great family zone. Majority of my local riding is Vernon to Revelstoke and Vernon to Nakusp corridors. Hit me up if your looking for change. Can ride at any level and adjust to the group.

I took this or similar course years ago out of Chilliwack (Advance wilderness first aid and survival). It was a week long course, not sure if this is the same. It was a requirement for my guiding license. I highly recommend it for anyone getting into the backcountry. Even with my military...

He's on a SideWinder. You miss your SideWinder but not the weight, was it a brain fart when you bought it or misinformation. LOL

Even today, I always found the Nytro with some simple modifications was a very well balanced sled that carried its weight extremely well, IMO better then the SW.

Honestly I would not worry about the axle giving you grieve. It was common practice to rifle drill axles back in the early 2000. I had 2 high powered sleds with rifle drilled axles, one of them was my race hill climber that had more HP then my current SW. 1250 triple PSI Genesis, dynoed at...

Are you running the OE turbo?

Sounds like similar results, hard to get on anything else once you ride one of these. Great work, you've done.

Awesome job, you noticed any benefits with your custom headers? I'm running the TD headers on mine and the throttle response was very noticeable, actually the entire low end.

Nice, who's headers. On their own that knocked off a good amount of weight right there, that cast iron manifold isn't light weight friendly.

I wouldn't worry, skill and the ability to own the new stuff don't necessarily go hand and hand, go out have fun and you may just be surprised.

You know what they say, hanging out with old folks will make you feel older before your time and then you'll be searching for your own meds. I'll keep hanging with the younger crew, more entertaining for now LOL. With this new Silver Tip Sledders group having a +50 criteria, S&M should start a...

Powder coating factory rails seldom lead to issues related to heat, thus why many do it, because factory rail are extruded out of non tempered aluminum. They are soft from the get go, thus weak already. The bigger issue is torquing the hardware to the rail. It is impossible to torque hardware to...

Thats a setup, nice. Just don't do your rails, bad idea, though some do. Its not advisable, seen plenty of issues with powder coated rails. Anodize only or raw.

Ya I see that with yours, interestingly enough I have never had that issue with any of my Cats or Yamahas or any of my sleds (Doo's). I think it maybe the previous owner way. It may had been trailered or even carried on a deck without any protection. Many do that, they are more then willing to...

Its going to look too good, your not going to want to ride it LOL. The baffles, especially the bottom one will need cutting back. Your going to need to cut them to make them level with the case cover or your new oil tank cover won't mount. This is the reason this mod is a one way street, you...

Yes exactly, hahaha

Yes a lot of us have done the same, I kinda still do it but not as often. 2 seasons ago there was a major dump in McBride but I had no time. SO, I was out the door by 4am, drove to Renshaw to meet up with friends by 10am in parking lot. Oh did I say I drove from Vernon BC, about 6hrs. LOL. Rode...

A little bit of clarification on this. A fully charged battery will not freeze, as it is not water but electrolyte (water/acid solution mix)inside your battery. Electrolyte does not freeze. BUT a discharged battery will freeze, as in a discharged state the electrolyte solution, water/acid starts...

It looks new, thats very impressive.
