We all buy stuff... software & hardware for the snowmobiling season so what did you purchase that met or exceeded your expectations? For it was the 144 Ice Ripper Track,Skinz Soft Hard Guards & a box of little Hotties for cold hands.The Skinz Soft Hard Guards were a gimmie from dfdattak so price was right but worked very well. ..lol Last year a jar of Fog Zero paste topped my list keeps my glasses from fogging for $7...who knew? I also started drinking PowerAid Zero & really helped to hydrate after full day on trails. Please don't list new or new used sleds as will only digress to the brand bickering & the point is to enlighten others about accessories they might want to buy & their effective use.

my fav acc in last 5 yrs is the goggle warmer bag for the 05/11 M XF.
98% of the time completely underwhelmed by aftermarket junk. but that dose not mean I don't have a big pile of it in my shop attic.

BR Teck thrasher hood. The sled runs better with the added intake, and much cooler with the added vents.

Balaclava (lightweight) usually don't wear one but this year was cold, and handle bar gauntlets again for very cold days they make a big difference on the cold days. Also the taller windshield to old to look macho!

X-2 on the goggle bag/warmer/defroster thing-a-ma-bob. I think I paid $35 for a "skinz" works wonders. Buds goggles in there more than mine. It will even dry out a set of diggin gloves... given enough time.

The Snowcoach, so our granddaughter can go riding with us and not have to ride on the seat with our helmets knocking into each other (or her falling asleep and her head flopping over and hitting the kill switch! :) )

My first thought was- Nothing!

But then I remembered...The cow-catcher bumper I put on the Proclimb.

Not a single scratch or dent on the entire sled in this incident (my sled is stuck in the trees on the right:eek: ).

Unfortunately as a Fusion owner the tow strap I bought at Krupp's has been a great accessory for me.

The skins hand guards and snobunje handlebar bag have been good too. Also got a lot of use out of snobunje in Wyoming, although rolling the sled over was a good option for a lot of stucks

In all honesty best purchase I made this season whether it be an accessory or not was my tekvest. Not only for safety but at the end of the day when you're wiped and want to slouch over it gives you support and keeps your body upright. My 2" track made my switchback a blast. My 12' triton I purchased this fall also made for a hassle free towing experience all winter long.

I love the head to toe Klim gear I purchased from Kip this year and I also purchased small gauntlets for both sleds this year and they were used often! I had never used gauntlets before but they make a difference on the really cold days.

rear hand grip heater kit to improve the rear hand grip heaters on my Venture GT. My fiance really appreciated it and didn't even get cold this winter while riding. I wouldn't take her out below zero but there were some 150 mile days in the single digits and I was impressed. Its just a relay change out. Found it on Totally Yamaha forums.
