Try Pats in Greenland as well. They usually have some Yamaha Vipers available. M & M will have yamaha and AC available.

Had that happen once. Everything ready to go a week in advance. We're never ready in advance, always have to hurry. So, spring break for my son at school, I went to start my sled, and it's dead. ECM gave up. Took the wife's little 500, loaded it up, and had the best time of my life! He teased me all the way up. But I laughed all the way home!!!!!!!! One of the best over all trips ever. Ya just never know!

Well the 500 wasn't the fastest by any means, but it would run 90'sh. And a heck of a lot better than renting, or staying home. I found it was bunch of fun to throw around the tight trails. I was as fast there as anyone else 600/800's. There was no waiting for me. Rail grades just enjoy the scenery. Over 800 miles in 3 days. That was in 2003. Being with family to me is by far better than being fast!!!

When do you need your sled up and running? I have a motor that is dialed in and ready to run that id make you a smoking deal on. It doesnt take long to drop a crate motor in that sled.

Right on Brother. Having fun on the trails doesn't require 160 HP.

He was with his son....and from the sound of it he schooled the lad with a "little" 500 under his butt....LOL...???

No schooling needed. He started riding with us at 2. A "Polarisized Kitty Cat" at 3. On his own sled at 6. And went to Ia. State for 4 years and that didn't seem to help much. So I can't do much more. LOL.
