Caution about purchasing fuel at Devil Track General Store, by Skyport Lodge, on the Gunflint trail. We experienced over heating due to possible detonation after fueling there. Same sleds, even with taller tracks, Did Not experience over heating with fuel purchased elsewhere. Our sleds, after...

Looking to head up to Voyegaire Lodge, on Crane Lake, Wednesday March 1st. Would be nice to hear from someone who's been up there this past weekend. Images would be great. Thanks.

Most excellent last ride of the season! We'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Untill next time..........................

A little cool, but Excellent conditions just over the hill from Two Harbors MN. The only way, that the trails could have been smoother, is if you got out a raked them by hand. Trestle Inn is always a popular destination. Still ample seating and fairly decent food. The Moose Run...

I've always run the "coat hanger" type scratchers in the past. I'll be installing some scratchers on my 14 XF7000ltd this season. I can't decide whether to stick with the "coat hanger" style. Or go with the Dura Flex cable type. What type do you prefer?

Heading up to Tofte, MN. Hope to explore the Gunflint trail, Tomohawk trail, and possibly over to Grand Portage. Where are the fuel stops in this area?

We're getting ready to install the skid after changing hyfax, bearings, etc, on a 1981 Ski Doo Citation. Any tricks on compressing the springs to install? Ratchet strap trick, or removing the spring guides won't work. Springs rest on the tunnel. Back in the day I had a couple early to mid...

The RSI Extend Heating Elements says to Not place over the hook set screw holes. My guess is, since there's no "bar" to act as a heat sink, that they would prematurely burn out. Thought was to fill the set screw holes with plastic filler or fiberglass. That way it's solid. Then the heating...

I'll be installing new over the hook handle bar grips shortly. Along will extended RSI hand warmers. What's the best/easiest way to slide the new grips on?

Who uses the No-Fog mask? http://www.powerbandit.com/no-fog-high-performance-face-mask.html The Fog Evader looks to a similar set up http://www.ruoutside.com/fog-evader.html I wear eye glasses. Contacts don't work for me. Don't want lasik surgery. Would really like to keep my glasses...

Just a heads up on a source for Skid Frame Idler Bearings and more. http://www.mfgsupply.com/m/c/process.html I wanted to freshen up the skid idlers on my Cats. Dealer was at $16, Napa $12, and these guys $5.99. Circlips .99. I picked up a dozen, including Circlips, with shipping, for...

I'm about to order the 6" Triple Point carbides, Ski Savers, and shims. Sleds do not have studs. 136" 1 1/2 inch lug on one. And 121" 1" lug on the other. Any negatives on this set up? Any real life experience with the Bergstrom products?

Has anyone used a Time-Sert to repair a stripped spark plug hole?

My wife wants me to make some DVD's from her MPEG-4 Cycling Training Videos. (No pirating here. We're authorized, bought, & paid) I'm really gun shy, after this whole virus fiasco that I just went through, about downloading. But thanks to lofsfire, and a number of other helpful members here, I...

What AntiVirus & Spywate/malware programs do you recommend? Since my home computer is still very sick, I decided to double check/update my business laptop. My TrendMicro is no longer supported. So I'm basically a sickness waiting to happen! Is it better to buy the CD or download online...

Can Virus's be transfer from a CD back up? Our home computer is so full of crap it ain't funny. To the point that I think the Virus's are eating my McAfee & SpyBot programs! Even another alleged AV/SpyWare shortcut showed up telling me that I have 300+ threats! And then wanted $70 to get rid...

I'm currently using a Lowrance XOG loaded with gpssledmaps in winter, and Lakemaster in the summer. Love it, works great, but was considering the Garmin Nuvi 205W for the wider and more daylight viewable screen. Has anyone used the 205W? All comments extremely welcomed. Thanks.

We're headed to Upper Red Lake this Friday. Any reports, tips, or pointer would be great. Thanks.

Just finished putting new pistons on the rods. Jugs are next. How tight should the Wrist Pins be? The pistons move on the pin, but they're pretty snug. With the New Pistons, New Seals, New Water Pump, this thing is going to be a hard pull at first start. I reinstalled an old piston, just to be...
