    Why Do You Ride?

    I know the answer to this question is different for everyone since trail riding & powder sledding is entirely different types of snowmobiling as well as different types of people with differing interests. For me I'm a long distance power cruiser with a need for speed but a Yamaha 4s with EPS has...

    MI Sign Issue Revisited.

    I have put on about 2000 UP miles this year & can't say I have slowed down at all as far as trail speed. Yes some curves could be marked better & lack of bridge ahead signs has been a problem on Trail 2 seems we all arrive at hidden bridges at same time when we had bridge ahead signs oncoming...

    Super Bowl What Happened?

    Are the Seahawks that good & Broncos not at SB level yet? I thought it would be Seahawks all the way but not by a blowout! Manning is always a wild card QB so I had to take Broncos as the real deal but they were not on the same level as Seahawks in any part of the game. I didn't want the North...

    Snow Flap Siffener Bracket?

    My buddy's studs are eating snow flaps in reverse in deeper snow. I have seen a snow flap stiffener bracket somewhere that keeps the flexiable snow flap from bending into the studs? The bracket is a metal frame that bolts/rivets on the tunnel & is a back stop for snow flap. Anybody know where...

    Visor Icing??

    What is the solution????????? We had severe visor icing on the trail in the UP Friday 10 AM - about 1PM gave up & had lunch & after lunch the condition had cleared the area & all was well. At times we were following the tail lights of the mothership in this case a Venture GT with a huge...

    Outdoor Cold City Super Bowl?

    I like outdoor football the colder the better & snow would be a plus.IMO If very cold Peyton may not fair very well sometimes looks stiff in cold weather games not an old QB's best condition. Too me Seattle all the way but should be a good & close game.:)

    2015 Snowmobile Lines Ups?

    Sitting hear waiting for current -20F high to warm-up a bit for riding & started to let my mind wander about 2015 Snowmobile Lines Ups. I think the industry as whole has excellent line ups right now but technology always moves on. My best guess as follows: Yamaha will cook up a 4s turbo...

    Daily Dominos Championship Game at Pat's!

    The entry fee varies on product acquisition but everyone that participates is a WINNER! I let Kip know in late Fall I wanted to buy a low mile used Apex XTX & if it had warranty all the better & I needed to trade in my cherry 2007 Apex Attak as part of the deal. At that time nothing fitting...

    Yamaha Brand Identification

    I have owned all the brands over the years but Yamaha suits me best now for trail riding groomed trails & unplowed FRs in WI & UPMI. The interesting characteristic is I have found a good bunch of riding buddies thru JD just because of the Yamaha brand. Don't get me wrong we will ride with any...

    How Do You Choose The Right Snomo Club To Join?

    We have been members of snowmobile clubs in the past & didn't find the experience very satisfying as far as finding hard-core like minded riding buds & club events were not much interest either. They had their trail boss & helpers so just became a member that writes a check really all they...
