Well, went to baker today. Spring like conditions, but flat light. Not even enough snow to make it up to fresh. An when I was rejettin, I found out why my sled had a slight burble... I had a 450 on the exhaust side instead of a 430:redneck: Oops....Runs like a top now! It climbed anything I pointed it at.:awesomework:

But the trail in was gettin nasty. I suspect with this current weather system blowing in, baker will not even be rideable.:mad:

I had a great time up there today, conditions were spring like, but **** I don't know the difference, it was my first time. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna buy a sled now.

my season riding opener was up on bearpaw. awesome place to ride IMO but you have to go way up. tried making it up to the lake but it was too nasty of conditions to ride that far.

Ah, I was on the longtracked ultra. Did that guy on that newer polaris in your group blow it up?

darius · Jan 12, 2010

No, he was having plug problems, he's never had a single plug problem since he's owned it

I have to admit I own all the major money pits, quads, wheelers, harley etc and snowmobiling is my fav. But this year with no snow is getting old fast:flipoff: Ya we are using 4130 chromoly on the steering hoop. All the motor weight is supported by the alum motor mounts in the bulkhead. Was the new polaris with plug problem a 800 dragon by any chance?

darius · Jan 12, 2010

900 dragon
