    How many Yoopers on this site?

    I'm curious to know how many of us are Yoopers and get to ride whenever we want (well, not anymore as I sold my sled, but you know what I mean). I'll start a poll.

    Would you travel on Friday 4/4/14?

    We're planning on traveling from Marquette, MI to Appleton, WI on Friday, 4/4, leaving around 9 or 10 AM. We've got a 4x4 with good tires (but not snow tires). Given the forecast, would you make the drive? Or is it a deathwish? Snow doesn't bother me too much, but ice is another story...

    Snowmobile ad that strikes me as funny

    http://nmi.craigslist.org/sno/4280059374.html First off, the sleds look beautiful. I had a '91 Phazer II Deluxe and loved it. I wish I could buy one of these sleds. What strikes me as funny though is the comment by the seller that he's selling because he's getting old and doesn't "ride like...

    Gas spewing from exhaust

    I've got a snoscoot that was running fine at winter's end. I started it up last week and it was spewing gasoline out the exhaust. Any ideas what causes this? I finally just shut it down and pushed it back into the garage. Thanks. Andy

    Any RS Venture GT Riders?

    I ride an fx nytro xtx and love it. Am wondering if I'd enjoy an rs venture gt. I do 99% trail riding, often piling on at least 200 miles a day. Would be handy to have a 2-up and am wondering how the gt rides as a solo cruiser. Anyone compared its ride with a nytro? It's the same motor but...

    Demo'd 2014 AC 7000

    Went to the demo rides in Marquette for AC. Rode the 7000 LXR and 7000 SnoPro. I'm a yamaha nytro rider so I was anxious to see how the yamaha motor that I love felt in the AC chassis. It handled great. Loved it for going through corners. No ski lift. This was the snopro. Their LXR wasn't...

    your daughter's helmet

    I saw in a pic you posted that you have a full face helmet for your daughter. How's it work? Too heavy? Do you go on long rides (25-50 miles) with her? Does her neck do ok? I've been using an open face for my daughter with a snap-on face shield and have wondered if her neck could hold the...
