Just out of curiosity, what are you riding this year? I’m currently considering all possibilities.

This year I am going to ride my daughter's 2001 Summit 700 144X2".
Still like the old zx chassis and the belt is still original!!
Will try not to put the first scratch on the hood or I will be in trouble.
I's gonna be a skills riding year!

Around the farm will either my (Sexy red an white) 91Phzer ll 136x1.5 or my Millennium Edition MXZ700 121x1.5" with original bulkhead and belt also - only 800km on sled.

Still trying to unload the 850.........

I switch to cat this year.
I like doo but I think in the future I will only buy a doo that is on its 4th year of the model, that way the consumer will have solved most of the problems by then.

Exactly. Said this when G4 came out and proves true every time.
Buy last model year built as discounted a lot and it’s the best your going to get .
Pay top dollar for the latest and have the most grief and no riding time.
Snowcheck my a&& !!lol
And the G4 was tested and tested by Kuster and others as BRP wasn’t releasing a poor untested product?
LMAO

Again the only visible damage is the a-arm and little nick in the ski. I have not personally seen the damage, it was the dealer that informed me. I did inspect everywhere I could see with out removing console and front end, so the cracks must be on he inside.
Or tuple bros is full of crap and azz raping ya over the service counter


They have been known to do this

I.d want to see it in person, and compare to known good sled

But ya to really see them good or bad, pipe and stuff have to come out and down like this to be 100 %

Yes this could very well be the case, not Turple Bros though. Calgary dealer, regardless if not warrantied which I know it will not be, I will source the parts out of the states and do the work myself. Full grip and rip brace kit will be installed if I decide to keep it.

I won't even buy oil there...drove 3 hours on Saturday to drop my sled off in Golden rather than bring it there. Ordered a ski last year for my T3, through the owner, emphasized that it was a deep keel T3 ski, he made his typical sarcastic comment about knowing these sleds inside and out...and of course was the wrong ski after I got the call to come pick it up.

Randy, I sold mine without a can and windshield storage extension but all the other goodies and quite a few more kms. The price has to be right for someone to come and grab it. Sorry for your loss but with the dealer discounts on left overs, it is not a good market for used sleds.

Just looked and Edmonton prices on kijiji for a new 2017 165 SP with fright/pdi taxes is at or just over 14K. Not a X and no extras or brace - another 2K
Or I can strip sled for less.
And that is OBO like any other sale.

Now back on broken bulkhead topic.

Good luck. I was just saying, if you really want to sell it, that used sleds are in the tank.

I am however really surprised that "BRPCARES" LMAO has not shown up in the past couple days? I guess not until the Spring Snow Checks are in the near future?
