    Before You Ride!

    Thank you, gratitude and appreciation!

    That's not in my wheelhouse but I'm told that ownership is aware and working on a solution. I might add that the Cams have been troublesome in the past and require on-going maintenance.

    Thank you, gratitude and appreciation!

    We much appreciate your kind words. The very fact that we can address each other on a first name basis on here is a testament to the levels of respect we have for one another. It's something John had set the tone for, and I think he'd be pleased with the outcome. JohnDee.com is the first site I...

    Vintage Trivia

    It was called, "the snowmobile that liked to go straight", the early Ski Doo Olympique. If you wanted to turn you had to lean like crazy and hope the skis would bite. Our neighbors had one and from what I recall it didn't turn worth a hoot. Technically, it was a 12/3 Olympique. The 12 was the...

Of course you get what you pay for, a cigar and cigarette lighter, oil injection, and your personalized name plate on the wood grain...

    Yeah, I forgot to mention that, cycles too. AMF was quite the story, a huge company with tons of diversification which eventually caused their demise. They couldn't manage it all and many of their products suffered in quality. They were just too big and managed too poorly, eventually bought by a...

    Your Pre-Season Checklist

    Here's hoping for an epic winter for snowmobiling and we certainly deserve one after last year. With a 4 Stroke in the garage, my preseason maintenance is at a minimum. I believe there's only 2 or 3 grease zerts on the entire sled and the battery's been on the maintainer all year. So yeah...
