    Retail Price Of Skidoo Advent Helmet?

    Yes if don't want the fighter pilot face mask and snot mop. The cord also runs the rear helmet light which is battery operated on the BVS2 helmet which I hated to deal with (batteries). I thought the communicator was powered by the cord. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't agree we are moving backwards...

    Retail Price Of Skidoo Advent Helmet?

    Helmet looks good but for that amount of money I would wait to see the reviews...multiple reviews because you will get the people who love it and the others hating it. Like the modular concept, like carbon fiber and built in communicators. They need to be great for music too before I would...

    When you say "smart ride" do you mean smart shox?

    Feb 22 snow

    I was almost one of them. When we came home from our trip last Sunday I had no idea that my driveway was a solid sheet of ice and drifted into the driveway with my trailer attached. Then once I got out of the truck we had to walk like penquins just to unload. Couple inches on top has helped but...

    Wisconsin...Are You Proud of This

    There are crazy nutty people everywhere. There is alcohol everywhere. There are drugs everywhere. We are surrounded. Just have to stay sane and live through it.

    https://www.eastidahonews.com/2023/02/update-missing-snowmobiler-found-dead-in-island-park/ sad story for sure. Yes, he became separated from his group and they couldn't find him for the rest of the day. Unfortunately we don't have anymore details than what is in that article. The next day we...

    2024 Ski - Doo

    Ok What is smart ride? Pete, if you are referring to mine yes it caused an issue and is now fixed. I can only imagine the bugs will be worked out with future models with smart shox. It's all mostly related to wiring where rubbing is causing wires to short out. I will say this is where Yamaha...

    2024 Ski - Doo

    Smart shox should be available on the enduro and Grand touring as well as power steering. Adding power steering is what would make me buy new. In the meantime I will enjoy my current sleds.

    3.0 Baby Duramax

    Yes it does move steering wheel too. I have it on my truck. Im In the passenger seat as I type this and that feature is working. Windy section of highway just east of Bozeman montana. Also, if you had a 1/2 ton on your last trip it may have been even worse. More weight is always better in...

    Drop point in L'anse

    Last tuesday we were in a wind storm after a recent 4"+ snowfall. Winds peaked at 45mph and we were in it. We could barely see the sled in front of us. Ended up in a valley where there wasn't one thing with color, even black for that matter. Everything was white. It felt like we were riding in a...

    Langlade, Oneida, Vilas trail conditions.

    I don't mean to rub it in but out in West Yellowstone and Island park there is more snow than I have ever seen in my life! Holy Cow! Hearing all these crappy reports back home makes me appreciate the decision we made to come out here and the timing...sounds to have been perfect. First time ever...

    MY 2024 thoughts?

    Yamaha...I can't call the "Yamaha sleds" yamaha anymore. They are Cats with Yamaha engines which is fine. Many people like them apparently...or maybe not. Don't know the sales numbers. After all these years still disappointed with Yamaha. Absolutely love my Doo but miss competition and differing...

    More Black Eyes on the Sport

    Yeah his post was nuts. The temperature of this thread is way too high. I'm from Illinois and I hate our state politics and definitely don't like more restrictions but we need to somehow regulate the driving drunk crap. Driving while under the influence is still a large part of the deaths each...

    Warm up this week?

    Good advice pclark. I saw 50 degrees in iron mountain today however trails appear to have held up pretty good. As you said roads took a big hit so those sections of trails will be tough . Would have been perfect for this next system to land up here but instead appears to be dumping down south...
