I bought quarts on amsoil this time so that I could carry a spare with me on my Fusion. However, I forgot to take my saddlebags with me and discovered that a spare will not fit in the storage compartment. Anyone else have this issue? I am not sure how else to carry oil without the saddlebags...

On my Fusion, the coolant hose runs underneath the bumper cover. Snow melts on the hose and then freezes and expands and then pushes the bumper cover away from the coolant line to the point that the plastic fastners on the bumper cover broke this weekend. Anyone else have this issue? The...

I was in northern wisconsin and the Western UP riding the past four days. This is the first time I've put any significant mileage on the sled since it was rebuilt. Put about 1,000 mileage on, and gas mileage was consistently low - 7-8 MPGs. I cleaned the powervalves one night, but they...

Thinking about riding the black hills. Would have to change jets on the 600 Fusion. How much work is this? Looks like those carbs are buried in there compared to my last sled. Do you have to pull the carbs out to do this? Is there anything that can be serious messed up by doing this? Just...

I've seen a couple posts about this in the western riding section, but I don't think there is as much action in that forum so I thought I'd post here....just wondering if anyone has any experiences, good or bad, with riding in the black hills area. We have short track sleds and normally ride in...

This was two seasons ago, but we were riding in the UP and ended up one night in Munisign. We were in a gas station trying to figure out where to stay for the night, when someone came in who is a county judge in that area. He asked us what we were looking for and ended up letting us stay in an...

We're still thinking about heading West this year...but the cost makes it tough. We all own short tracks so we'd be renting. If we go, we'd be looking to rent for four days. So far, the cheapest I've found is $180/day for a M6 which includes gas and oil. That's in the Togwotee area. Anyone...

I bought a Carlisle belt for my Polaris 600 Fusion. When I put it on the sled, it squealed and turned the track when the sled was on the track stand. I was told that I need to adjust the secondary to make it sit. Is this an easy adjustment to do? I also had a new Polaris belt and it runs...

We stayed there last year and the owner mentioned he was closing in the Spring...just wondering if it did close.

Last year, if I remember right, one of the loops in the Keeweenaw was closed. I think the cause may have been wetlands that didn't freeze up or owner issues, and that there was talk of a reroute. Just curious what the status was of this. Seems like the area could really use that extra loop to...

Nuvi 500 for snowmobiling. http://www.gandermountain.com/modperl/product/details.cgi?i=420511&pdesc=Garmin_n_vi_500_GPS_Navigator I own a 60 csx, so I'm not in the market, but I recently came across this unit, and was wondering how it might do on the snow. Just curious if anyone else has used it.

Can't seem to find a tall windshield for a Fusion, probably because it was a short-lived body style. Trying to compare options for warmer hands...either better windshield or hand guards. Thanks.

I'm thinking about getting some handguards for wind protection for my hands. I have a Fusion 600 and I find my hands are cold more often than on my edge chassis. My gloves are Klim Klimates so I don't think that's the issue. It's either handguards or try a bigger windshield. So I'm thinking...

Anyone have any experience with Motofist gear? I talked to two people from Motofist at the sled show in Milw. Seemed intriguing, but I'm not sure why anyone would buy something so new for so much money until it's been around for awhile (it seemed to be priced comparable to Klim). The gear...

We're headed to the Milw snow show on Sat. With the weather being as warm as it is, we're thinking about camping Sat. night. Are there any good places to camp near there? Basically just looking for a place to set up a campfire and pitch a tent...nothing too fancy. We'll be driving up from...

We rode in the West once - a few years back - and stayed at the Turpin Meadow Lodge, which is 8 miles by trail from the Togwotee Lodge. That's the only area I know. We had such a great time I don't even know if I'd consider going anywhere else, but what are the other choices available for...

Hey, it seems like you don't hear much about the arctic cat 4 strokes. When you look at the arctic cat sites, it seems like all the discussion is about the turbos and mods, etc. What is the non turbo 4 stroke cat like compared to say the F6? That's supposed to be an incredible chassis, just...

Hey all, we went to the novi show a couple of years back and loved it. The milw show will work better in terms of timing this year. Is this show comparable to the novi show? I've heard the novi show is bigger but not sure how much different. Thanks!

I think I'm going to need a new battery for next season in my 06 Fusion 600. My question is, do I even need one? I bought the sled used and wouldn't have paid for e-start if I bought it new. I don't mind pull starting it, but I'm wondering if it will run ok or at all without the battery. I...

One of the topics that comes up from time to time with a couple of riding buds, normally after a few beverages, is that we should go in together and purchase some property somewhere in the Northwoods of Wisconsin or in the UP (where we ride 90% of the time). Since we're all fairly young and...
