I have actually been riding for about 10 years but I either rented or borrowed a buddies sled, so i have some riding experience but i could use a lot more! I am hoping for about three to four trips to our cabin in hayward this winter. Yeah, the F7 is a riot, more speed than i need!

I think that is just too much sled for ya. You and I need to trade. I'll trade my 600 snopro, for your f7. A, how many miles ya got? Ha. Nice sled man.

You gotta love the spring order sabercat graphix, and you don't see a ton of red ones. Even less green ones.

Nice sled.

Its the 2003 F7 with 2800 miles, so fairly low miles. Yeah, i love the sabercat graphics on it. I did change the plugs on it already and yes they are in an odd location. I am actually very impressed with the handling of it. I knew it was fast, but it is really well set up for riding. It is all stock right now and i wont add anything this year, unless anyone has a good idea!

congrats and very sharp sled, i just hope you dont have to change plugs on that darn thing, because they may stress you out on the side of the trail

why do you have to be a butthead in every post?? The guy prolly has 2 times the mechanical aptitude you will ever have. Remember that exhaust spring? You started crying like a little girl and said your were quitting snowmobiling until I pushed you aside and completed the task in 5 seconds. You remember that theodore??


Btw duphree nice sled!!

@rmk4ever - you dont want to see what that picture would look like now, absolutley zero snow! I live in Oglesby, IL (Peru, Ottawa, LaSalle area). The rain melted everything, totally bummed since i jut got the sled a week ago. Oh well, time to head North! As for the plugs, I already scouted that out and changed them and "practiced" how to change the belt! I am actually thinking to attend the Johndee ride-in in early February, sounds like a blast!

how mutch you want to spend I got lots of ideas for you.less than a g and you can take most of anything under 850cc and some over 850s that dont know what tuning is that pulls up to you on the ice.I still say the best power plant cat has put out the whole pacage just works.8 yrs latter and guys are still cleaning up at the track with that sled
