    motorfist turnagain pass or klim everest (midlayer/jacket) or another fleece jacket

    Bought a discontinued Polaris e-vent shell jacket at the end of the season last year and am now looking for the insulation layer. Purpose will be for trail riding and/or colder days (I can wear something lighter for off trail or warmer days). Was leaning towards the klim everest but I also...

    grease guns - how do you keep them from turning into too much of a mess

    Everytime I use my grease gun I swear 1/2 the grease has come out and gets everywhere. What am I doing wrong? Am I not releasing the pressure? Does the grease come out when the temperature changes? Doesn't seem like it should do that but who knows. I only use it to grease my sled once or...

    Polaris FST questions

    What kind of mileage do these things get? How much turbo lag? Did they make a switchback with an FST? If so, with a decent track, how would that do off trail compared to say a comparable 600? Or is it just way too heavy for off trail use? Just curious about this engine....

    Extending Fusion to 136 or 144...what is involved?

    This may have been asked before (I may have even asked it), but the board is slow right now, so here it is: the track on my Fusion 600 was showing some wear this past season. The sled is in storage, but I need to take a good look at it and see if I think it's got some life left. If not, I'm...

    Personal Financial/Budgeting Software

    Here's something for the off-season...what personal financial/budgeting software do you use, if any? I'm an accountant, and I just use Excel, but I'm looking for something to streamline the task...

    Garmin 60csx for fishing

    I have a Garmin 60 csx that I may be lending to my Dad to use for a fishing trip in Canada. Main purpose will be to mark spots, help with not getting lost, etc. Will the preinstalled base map be good enough for this? Also, does the base map always stay installed on the unit? I have installed...

    What happened to all the TEAM threads from 2 seasons ago?

    Used to be lots of TEAM threads, like Team Kessler, etc. I don't remember seeing much of that this past season. I used to enjoy some of the stories and pictures.

    sizing of klim inferno pant

    I found a closeout sale on the klim inferno pant. I've heard klim outerwear is typically small (i.e., buy one size larger than you normally would). Is this the case with their base/midlayer also? Thanks.

    Bachelor Party ideas

    I will be probably involved in planning two different bachelor parties for mid to late summer, although they might be combined. Looking for ideas. Most of those who will be involved are in their early 30's, some married, some not. Most are into active outdoors stuff - some snowmobilers, some...

    motorfist balaclava - anyone have one?

    I saw a place with some motorfist gear on clearance (helmetoutletusa.com). I was looking at the motorfist balaclava. It's 1/2 price. In the pictures, it looks very similar to the Klim covert but I haven't seen one in person. It's a small dollar item but I thought I would I would check on...

    Positive experience with Klim warranty

    My Klim Klimate gloves failed late this season - the fabric wore out and ripped where the base of one of the fingers met the palm part of the glove. The gloves were used for 4 seasons. I ride 8 or so days each season on average, so I probably rode around 30-35 full days with them. Klim...

    EPI Clutch kit - worth the money for a 600 Fusion?

    I see EPI clutch kits here and there for sale for around $180. How much improvement will I get from one of these? My fusion 600 has around 4500 - 5000 miles on it (1500 on the rebuilt engine), so it's probably time to go through the clutches anyway. Just curious. I wouldn't mind waking it up...

    Last generation Suburban - pros/cons

    We have an expanding family and need a bigger vehicle for the wife and kids. We currently have a Commander but need something with more room. I was looking at the last generation Suburban, which I think ran from 2000 to 2006. Also looking at minivans and other full-size SUVs, but that's a...

    sled in s-10 front-facing???

    Can you put a sled in the bed of an s-10 front facing? I'm guessing the wheelwells are too close together.

    Sorry I know it was posted somewhere on here, but what does Mom's motorsports charge for transportation to the play areas? We were in the tog area last week and saw the truck at Togwotee and at Lava Mountain lodge.

    2012 Cat Skids

    I was looking at the details of the 2012 cats. Looks like the Trail sled, crossfire and M all have different skids. It looks like only the trial sled is coupled. The Trail sled and the crossfire have sway bars. Is the new crossfire closer to a mountain sled than a trail sled? Seemed like...

    Polartec 200 as midlayer from Cabelas

    I bought a e-vent shell jacket from Polaris and I am needed to buy a thicker fleece midlayer to go under it. I noticed Cabelas has some good prices on the Polartec fleeces. Anyone bought any Cabelas-branded clothing...does it hold up? Is the 200 weight about right? I will probably order...
