    Chaincase cover leaking

    Your main concern is if chain case had a crack. Sometime in your era RXL went electronic injection and that was a nightmare wires running everywhere. Buddy had one ride quality was great but early Polaris electronic injection was too complicated he sold it the next year.

    Are you ready to Rumble??? Heere Bleezard Bleezard!!!

    Looks like lots of ifs ands and buts for our snow play areas. Just have to wait it out although northwest Midwest looks to get hammered. Good for them!👍

    All I Want for Christmas Is....

    Agree Indy trail condition info is sparse best I can tell 6”-8” in Lando ,ER mum Vilas in deer hunting season and going thru trail inspections all towns open at once. No reporting yet north of Lando in UP suspect not much snow down to Tomahawk WI north to the MI Les snow belt. I guess not much...

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    Just an interesting fact 107 from Kenton Woods south to trail 2 is 25 miles. I used to run back and forth on 107 just for grins an giggles but it ain’t an intimate trail it’s a groomed FR after Kenton woods.

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    Not if in pursuit of neon lights , bars and frequent gas stops. Apparently a different type of Snowmobiler likes remote riding and big miles to get there.

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    I’ve been advocating these trails for years sharing the knowledge and traffic has picked up a bit but nothing like trail 3 and big snow country. But as Indy said most won’t like the lack of amenities and lower snow plus big miles town to town so they only frequent same old same old trails that...

    Skyview Lodge closed??

    They did the same with DNR about 10 years ago for snowmobiling. The so called safety team would set up dragnets stop every sledder shake them down for paper registration ask dumb questions and let you thru. If you were visiting a town restaurant you got shaken down in and out a total pita. The...

    I’m known for making the best of bad things that happen in life. Believe me I would rather be back in Vilas but my family needed me here in Waterford so here Iam. Ironically my best riding Bud moved back to IL for family issues too. So now we are snow chasers longing for the UP and Vilas county...

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    First of all get some maps. Generally ride east and south of Phelps on the weekends less traffic greater chance of good groom. If friends from Conover meet at Great Escape or the Convenience Center. Since you like the UP you can back door Iron River from WI 6e to 15 take MI trail 2 west lunch...

    Respect exists here in Waterford on the Fox River plus Tichigan and Buena Lakes. Lots of close running but no fist shaking or fingers from the shoreline that I experienced in Vilas. This area is extremely mellow just people having fun on the water. I was surprised how easy going and tolerate...

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    I would suggest your first timers stay at the Lakeview Motel in Phelps since they have rooms packaged with snowmobile rentals. Since you are on North Twin just the lake between you and your friends and the ice is marked but safe everywhere in that area. From Phelps ride north south east or west...

    I don’t have a different opinion of wake boats and I had 100 feet of floe dock on a sand bar on Spectacle Lake and wakes came rolling in with any boat. Boat type restrictions lead to many other water use restrictions like engine size , boat size and the next irritation which would PWCs. I’m a...

    Goofy has it exactly correct. Snowmobiling in NW Vilas has never been an issue has been embraced for as long as I can remember. I’m sure there are residents that hate snowmobiles but that ship has sailed. It’s lake use and shoreline development that has paired the DNR and greenies to a cult like...
