Re: Snowmobile advise
 

Too many Cats and SkiDoos here. This is better:D

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

You can't say that because you sold it...which you shouldn't have done... :D But you're right, way too many Ski Doo's around here, they're a dime a dozen, and I find the REV's extremely ugly, I don't care how they ride.

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

That's good to hear, hopefully I'll be able to find somethin like that when I'm looking. My friend was just looking at one with 5,000 miles on it and was a 2002...it was being sold real cheap, but it looked like it had been ridden hard and put away wet. You can't beat a Cat though :cool:

Man I miss sledding. I used to race a very hopped up Phazer back in the 80's. The HP seems real sick now!!!

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

Obviously you have never ridden one. You Polaris and Cat guys most be pretty used to looking at their mud flaps now.

Here is mine

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

Yeah you're right, I haven't ridden one...I wouldn't want to put myself through that. :D :D

Actually I hear they ride nicely, but I wouldn't own a Ski-Doo just for the simple fact that they're a dime a dozen around here, I'd rather own a sled that you don't see very often (in this case, a ZR CCE). I've ridden all 4 brands, and am just peticular to Cat's, even after owning one that had a blown motor which gave me nothing but troubles.

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

JUST BECAUSE IT HAS BRAKES DOEN`T MEAN ITS GOING TO STOP I HAVE THE TWO ARCTIC CATS ONE IS A 2006 CROSSFIRE THE OTHER IS A 2004 F-7 EFI NOW LET ME TELL YOU WHY I HAVE TWO. LAST YEAR IN THE U.P. OF MICHIGAN I WENT INTO AN ICY CORNER WAY TO HOT AND BLEW IT WRECKED THE F-7 AND SHATTERED MY ARM. I AM WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER A SKILLED RIDER BUT ON THE TRAILS THINGS HAPPEN VERY FAST AND THERE IS NO ROOM FOR ERROR. TRY THE 500 THE FIRST DAY, THEN MOVE UP AFTER THAT. ANYWAY IF YOUR IN A FEDERAL PARK WHEN YOUR OUT WEST THEY HAVE SPEED LIMITS. IF THE 500`S ARE SABERCATS WHICH ASSUME THEY ARE YOU SHOULD SEE 80 DEPENDING ON TRAIL CONDITIONS AND THAT IS PLENTY FAST FOR A FIRST TIME RIDER.

Re: Snowmobile advise
 

Here is mine after its make over.. last feburary I smacked a tree doing over 60 mph..

Like these guys say.. **** happens fast on the trail.

But I don't worry too much., cause most of you old guys are behind me.... :p :p :p :p :p
