Who's snowchecking 2025

So did you pay $15995 for the sled and another $2000 for warranty? Kinda sounds like a way of saying you got a good deal but payed the same. I like it.

Basically 16k plus all the dealer BS, 3yr extra warranty included.

Did get from vernon or ktown

All i no is talked to a few sled dealers doo and poo and its been crickets on tbe snow check side the one doo dealer had 120 snochecks last year hoping to even get half that for this year

They did lol the 800 etec but then everyone wanted to attach a hairdryer to all the sleds so reliability goes down

I know a lot of guys who would disagree about the 800 etec being a super reliable motor that last a long time lol

I call BS. Lol

Well I know lots of guys that say the 800 etech is the best motor ever put in a sled.

 

[lilduke]

I still think the best 2 stroke of all time might be the 670. But the 800 etec is up there. Hah

I dont know those old Suzuki motors in the M1000 sure seemed bullet proof. People were grabbing any old turbo off their tractor and tossing it on there and engine didn't seem to want to die.

True story. The Suzuki 800 Big bored to 925 could handle 14 pounds boost for thousands and thousands of miles with good fuel.

I’ve had three on the rope behind my shitty cats with Suzuki motors, all between 2013 and 2016

Ya they dont last for ever, nothing does. Ive towed my fair share of kitties behind the 800 etec.

I have pics of that too...lol

 

[lilduke]

The worst was my friends 17 cat. Man that thing was a pile.
Was towing it daily for a while...

My calculations:
If you buy a 2023 850 N/A and set it up properly the way it should be with a turbo. Would be approximately 10G more.
Lynx track, gear down kit( not sure if required on the turbo, clutch kit, anti stab kit, extrovert drivers if required and turbo.
($10,000)
Sled cost $13000 plus 10G = $23,000

2023 boost
Track, gear down, anti stab, clutch kit
($4000)
Sled cost $19,000 plus 4G = $23,000

Ya all of them were pretty new, the 13 was in 14, the 15 was in 15 and the 16 was in 17, all under 2000km. Everything blows up but apples to apples the Suzuki lasted longer from my experience

More carbon tax will bring the snow back…
