What was the issue?
This time it was codes 1639 and 1640 exhaust valve sensor circuit high and low Would not rev up past 3450 rpm. He was wiggling those exhaust valve cables when I walked over wit the tow gear and it scared it into running right so we headed down. Other days it's been other electrical gremlins. That's two brand new machines he has had this kind of grief with. The last one two different dealers couldn't figure it out so traded up. I sure wouldn't buy a cat.

Coudnt agree more towed out a 850 poo with 700 kms on it this saturday at km 1 headed up Quartz then buddy who was saying his cheap 800 Rmk runs with the best of them were parked on the side at .5 km on the way down with the 850 poo behind me .

Never trust a damn poo. 800s were no good and the 850s not too much better.

On the g4 note eveybody i ride with has one and they are all 1000+ kms and have never missed a beat .

The only sleds that broke down in our group this year have been Ski-doo's. Just luck of the draw. One blew a code and wouldn't go and the other broke a throttle cable. Does that make them 5hit? no, just unlucky. Johnny is right, you can't trust any of them. But is that enough to stop sledding? No way!

I hear you. But I repeat, don't take anything to Argyll.
