If you buy a used sled from a dealer in MI or WI, does the dealer collect the sales tax or is that the buyer's responsibility, similar to if you bought from a private party?

Thought this was interesting. http://www.msasnow.org/permanent-trails-where-are-we-now/ This issue is absolutely vital for the future of riding in MI. Seems like they've have a tough go of it with the MI govt.

Anyone rode them both and compared them? One of the guys I ride with is looking into them. From what I've seen, the 600 is about the same on gas and speed but is obviously much lighter. Oil is probably a wash since the 600 uses so little in a season. I've read the early Yamacats were sort of...

Got an email today regarding this - how does this compare with the Fall snow shows? I was thinking about maybe going since I have family in that area.

According to their earnings release today - they gained market share but expect to ship fewer sleds next year. That their market share is their best in over 13 years - what is that, just before Poo brought out the Fusion 900 and Doo brought out the Rev? Below are some quotes. And for the full...

I'm looking into getting a new propane grill. Any suggestions? I've been buying the cheapo's every 4 or 5 years from the big box stores and thinking about buying something decent this time around. The one I have now is a "Thermos" brand from Menard's. I think it started rusting on the way home...

Saw them on clearance in a large size which is unusual, but I'm wondering if they are too bulky or if I'd be better off with something else. One of my boots pretty much self-destructed on the last trip so it's time to buy something. I know there have been a lot of threads about boots but I...

Seems like there used to be a lot on ebay but not as many anymore. Many on craigslist, which is kind of a pain to search. Any other places you look for used sleds for sale?

Fusion 600 with 9200 miles. Pulls fine up to about 7500 RPM's but that's all it has. Tops out a little over 70 MPH on the speedo - normally has no issues up to 80, and probably more. I switched to my spare belt (used) and it was slightly better. I was riding in Canada without much access to...

What kind of mileage are people seeing out of Yamacats? Are they comparable to what Yami gets with the Vectors? Seems like there are a lot of deals on these right now - I might try to demo one next weekend.

All these accident posts have got my attention finally. I see Tek vest freestyle for $200 on ebay. For those who ordered a tek vest, did you have to get a larger sized jacket to wear over it? Did you wear a different mid layer because of the added warmth? I'm concerned mainly for trail riding...

Looking at different sled options and had a question. I've spend the past 7 years on a 600 121, and that has been fine for me in terms of power, but now I'm also looking at sleds with 136/137 tracks. How much difference does it make in terms of engine performance having to spin a longer track...

Anyone used the Klim arctic balaclava with an enclosed helmet? Just wondering how it works. Did you take out the helmet's breathbox?

So what's the advantage of the air shocks over the traditional coil-over shocks? All the higher end suspension packages have gone to air shocks. Are they easier to adjust? You don't have the issues with the oil leaking out of them and needing to be rebuilt?

I know this is a crazy year and there might not even be any snow by then, but typically, does the traffic die down once you get into March? We're looking into taking a short trip in March. The UP would work out great but those pics of the bug bar with 100 sleds outside kind of makes you think...

Looks like there are good deals right now on 2016 Indy's and Indy SP. Advertised prices are about $800 difference. Base Indy has throwaway shocks and .9 track. SP has decent rebuildable shocks and 1.0 track. I wouldn't want either track, and I've read the SP is valved very soft anyway. What...

We rode up in Ontario last weekend (3 and a half days), from Searchmont to Chapleau, over to Wawa and Dubreville, then back to Searchmont. Had a great time. Saw 5 or less sleds on the trails each day. Got to break trail in 2 feet of snow most of the way from halfway haven to Chapleau - there was...

John, Your lake effect snowbelt map shows where lake effect snow typically hits in Michigan - generally the West and South of Lake Superior and Lake Michigan. Is the land in Canada on the Eastern shore of Lake Superior a lake effect snowbelt as well?

Years like this will soon be unheard of http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/C/CLIMATE_COUNTDOWN_THE_LATEST?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2015-12-12-15-18-21 200 politicians can't be wrong.

Any good black Friday sales for sled gear? I got an email from First Place Parts - that's the 1st one I've seen. I'm not one to physically shop that day but will look online.
