    Sleepy River bridge on trail 13 washed away!

    That’s extremely unfortunate hopefully the DNR will approve and repair quickly but we sure haven’t seen quick wash out bridge repairs in the UP in the past. As far as I know trail 15 north from IR 2 was closed all winter and still closed and all that bridge needed was repairs

    Seems to be lack of commitment to produce units somewhere in the process.

    2024 Yamaha.Is it going to happen?

    Can you share what happened? Yamaha seems dependent on how many chassis AC can produce imo. Was there lack of commitment from AC to produce units for Yamaha or lack of commitment from Yamaha to order units from AC? Seems to me there can’t be cat and mouse relationship both need to commit to the...

    2024 Yamaha.Is it going to happen?

    You are going thru the same transition dfattack and I went thru from Yamaha to Skidoo 4s. In reality there ain’t much out there to compare just skidoo and Yamaha. Polaris did join the 4s movement but their hearts aren’t in it for years Polaris denied a snowmobile 4s market existed to the delight...

    Start to another season!

    After 16 years in Vilas so-called Spring it is when it stops falling below freezing at night. As said go south until mid May. I toured most of FL coast out to New Orleans after Katrina and what a sight to see. Miles and miles of beautiful beach then the hurricane destruction was awesome. Vilas...

    Regardless of supplier AC Textron can only accept a lay down 4s anything else won’t fit in Catalyst as I understand the new platform.

    2024 Yamaha.Is it going to happen?

    Only longevity I see with Textron and Yamaha is if Yamaha has a lay down 4s designed to fit the Catalyst that would be interesting. Otherwise it’s procross and same old same old until no one wants them anymore. As you said that one day will come first me then dfattack moved on to doo for the...

    Deer will eat what they need to when hungry. Couldn’t believe they ate my red pine 1 year but nothing else they will eat pines too. Late Spring they will eat greenery along the roadside little sprouts and they are on it right away.

    I hear ya just sets back Spring in every way and all the spring events but quite common in Vilas 20 inchers used to break my heart drove me south to FL until mid May. Can’t plant flowers until well into June to avoid freezing temps.

    adjustable limiter strap

    No doubt it’s more precise I used mine as a carbide tweak. As you said you don’t change yours I’m a button pusher these days use stock settings to git er done.Imo it depends on what you are trying to accomplish I wouldn’t over expect but it’s neat to have if you use it.

    adjustable limiter strap

    Had adjustable limiter on my doo 98 triple F700. Same idea but had a hand knob on a threaded rod. I used it on trails in central WI on sunny days when trails got icy in the late afternoon. Pulled down my skis for improved corner handling while my buds were slipping and sliding it was a slick...

    2024 Yamaha.Is it going to happen?

    Exactly and I wouldn’t hesitate to pay for smart shocks. Hp is available no matter how much you want via electronics I’m now more concerned with a sweet bump capable ride the best I can get when trails get whooped.

    2024 Yamaha.Is it going to happen?

    I don’t think suspensions will transition to electronic in a blink of an eye more like 10 years. Mechanical will also be available on the less expensive models. But what can be easier than pushing a mode button and riding? That’s kiss riding no messing with mechanical adjustments. Look at the...

    Remember this is a public forum and exchange of information and knowledge is a good thing for everyone especially with suspension setup. I’m always open to learning what I can and share the knowledge I have as well. There is a PM feature here so you can have private conversations if you desire...

    So how much do you charge to set up stock sleds or are poor stockers impossible to optimize?
