I enjoy a machine that will get me where I want to go, and the Yamaha's usually stuck somewhere near the bottom
Or they have a turbo, inwhich case they make my machine look cheap and reliable
It is a good thing that you got a yamaha following in the back,that way you don't have to wait for everyone to come back down the trail to tow you back to your truck.
The new yammis are reliable, but they have a 60lb+ weight disadvantage. That really hurts the performance and handeling. I ride alot in the tight trees where the sled needs to be manuverable and able to work through the tight trees with no momentum
When I am not in the trees, then I am in the steep country where the yammaha's need a turbo to keep up.
I remember back in the day the Arctic Cats were the heavy ones, and the ones that always needed a tow. I never had a mountain type sled though. Mine was just a run of the mill machine.
Nope. Haven't had time to pull it out yet. I'll get her going just not sure when. Hopefully not to expensive. They all suck when not working but if it was going to happen better now than 20 miles out in the woods.
Yea I hear ya,the garage is a much better place to work than the trailer or even worse up the mountain or in the bush.The snow is suppose to start up here this week and we can get 3' a day so it won't be long for play time me
