wanted something more reliable i could count on to get me home after a 200 mile ride, and i wanted something that wouldnt get stuck in 2 foot of snow. so i got my beast, and been loving every second of it. even though it still only has 250 miles on it. still brand new.

For sure! It's so nice to have a reliable sled. I had a similar situation happen once with the John Deere, the fan came loose and was sparking pretty bad the whole way home. I found out I forgot to put the lock washer back on when I replaced the belt. lol!

Yeah im really thinking this is the end of IL's season. ^ plastic skis probably wont tighten up the steering, take a look at your rod ends that is what helped my sled the most and I have plastic skis with the updated knuckles from polaris

Re: SNOWMOBILE thread!!!!
If that was at me, I said lighten, not tighten. Those metals skis are heavy and my only complaint is that the sled nosedives a bit in deep pow

I love hitting fresh powder with mine and it bogs a little but it runs like a raped ape on packed trails
