    PowerMadd Seat Wedge and Handlebar Riser

    Anyone have or tried one of these seat wedges? My son is looking to put a handlebar riser on his ZL and is thinking of raising the seat too. As of now, most of our riding is on the trail but he is looking to do a little more off trail and wants to make his sled "one of those stand-up ones" so...

    10 foot Enclosed Trailer vs Newer Chassis Dilemma

    Well like I already said on this thread, Ezra was right on about the description of the trailer, now I gotta say he hit it again. I bought the f8, so had to sell the trailer. Sold it in 2 weeks for $850 more than I paid for it 4 years ago. Now to complete the story I just picked up a 09, 12'...

    07 f8 seat removal

    I'm trying to change out my rear storage box and the service manuel talks about removing some screws, that to the best of my knowledge are under the rear of the seat. In order to take the seat off it tells me I have to remove the gas tank. I don't think I need to remove the entire tank, but I do...

    f8 Ski Alignment

    As I've said in a couple other threads I just picked up a 07 f8. This weekend I finally had a chance to really go through it and noticed the skis seem to be towed in. They are equal in their angel, but definitely do not go straight forward. Is this a normal set-up? How do I adjust this if I...

    2013 Ride-In

    I know it's early and you want to take a break before you gear up for next year but you know what they say, "the day after the event you start planning for next year" so just wondering, are you planning for the first weekend in February again? Just tying to pencil in some vacation and wanted...

    Arctic Cat Carb vs EFI

    Planning to pick up a used sled in the 2500 - 4500 range and have always been an EFI guy. Plenty sleds out there in my range but if I want to go as new as possible I start to get into the age/miles/size debate on carb vs EFI sleds. Seems like I can always find a 05 to 08 carb machine with 2800...

    10 foot Enclosed Trailer vs Newer Chassis Dilemma

    I'm looking for some feedback, I've got a Floe enclosed drive on/off in great shape and 2 cats that fit inside no problem. I'm planning to upgrade one of them for next season and if I want the new one to fit into the trailer I'l thinking I'll need to stay with a ZR. I'm looking at something...

    Why I Snowmobile

    Great shots everyone, had to share some of mine, but the real "this is why I snowmobile" is the shot of me and my son. Having a 16 year old that asks to go on a trip with his dad and says its more fun when it is just the two of us makes it one of the greatest things we can do!

    Not a Question, just thanks!

    Was just sitting here tonight thinking back in time and realized it was about 10 years ago we met in ER, WI on that generator deal. While I'm not a big poster, I have to tell you I look forward to those "Lifetime Member" emails every morning and I hit the site almost everyday. We sold the...

    Rough trails last week for my group???

    We were up and stayed in Houghton the 25th to the 29th and sorry to hear about everyone's trouble, but I have no idea how you could have had an experience so different than ours. Can't talk about Wednesday as we only rode 75 miles south on 3 to Twin Lakes and did the Freda Loop. Everything was...

    Places to eat on the trail in the Keweenaw

    Been up a couple times but used to do a lot of riding in both Hayward and Eagle River, WI and it seems like those areas have a lot more places to stop for lunch and dinner on the trail. Coming up mid week for a few days and looking for suggestions for lunch/dinner stops. Food is more important...

    How much weight is too much?

    Got a relative that always wants to borrow my sled. Only reason I even consider letting him is that its always hard to be polite and still turn down someone your related too, and...... he lives right by the trail and will let me park them in his garage for free all season if he can ride one...
