    msrunningbear, has this cold weather caused the Paulding Light to show up less often?

    It's one of those things you got to do when you're in the area. But I will say I stopped in June of 2016 with the kids and it was not the same experience as the winter. If you go in the winter it's typically just you and your group. Maybe one other group or another car but that's about it. I...

    Where to buy gear?

    This is a loaded question. Depends on what you want/ willing to pay... With that said, assuming you looking for deals since you are outfitting the family. Check dealers, ebay, Denises Kirk, even amazon. Just depends on how much work you want to put into finding that deal. I have had good...

    Turbo Yamacats

    So I have a 2015 ZR9000 SnoPro Limited and love it. I do not think it is heavy when riding, moving it by hand, yes you feel it... This weekend I just rolled 4500 miles, normal maintenance, Studboy duce bars, and 4 wheel kit. Other than that everything else has just been cosmetic upgrades. Mine...

    Yes, you're correct 2018 and below had the buttons on the outside of your arm. 2019 and up have the buttons on the thumb side much easier to use!

    Klim or Castle heated gloves

    I have the FXR Recon gloves and love them! I also have the Gears glove liners (just the glove liners) My son has used these and love them! If you buy them make sure you buy the adjustable dial not just the on/off switch. He turned them off after just a couple of minutes his hands were so hot...

    2015 ZR9000

    My part showed up today and it took about 10 minutes to change it out. As for more pictures, there really wasn't much to see unless you completely took the gearbox apart. I know above it was talked about indexing the worn out gear. Which can easily be done. But you will need a set of snap ring...

    2015 ZR9000

    So when I got home from work today I took the side panel off and sure enough you could hear plain as day that it was the reverse actuator motor. You could also feel it vibrating. So yes he sure did hit the nail on the head! I will say, after reading what he wrote and then finding that other...

    2015 ZR9000

    So I noticed a weird sound when I shut my sled off the other day. I don't know if I just never noticed it before or something's up. Here's a link to a video so you can hear it for yourself. It does this whenever you turn the key off. Doesn't matter if the sleds completely running or just the...

    Helmet

    Bought one for my son 3 years ago. It was end of season and we were at the dealer and as a kid, he was hounding me for it. Dealer wanted to clear out the snow gear and my son was needing to step up from a kids helmet to an adult size. So I picked it up for him. It was a bit big but fits him...

They do get busy but most of the clubs do a really good job when they have the snow to work with. The last two years Trail 3 (Wellston Area) has...
