Going to use the engine then. That's good shouldn't be down to long then.

A riding buddy who has been a long time cat fanatic is switching over to skidoo. He sold his zr 900 and going to look at a 11 renegade 800. I was surprised when he told me

No different then owning a cat (Chris) or Yamaha (Jay) . The skidoo will ride better be lighter and better mpg. . I told him to look at the 1200 also. He did a little but likes the higher HP sleds. 1200 will be my next upgrade

Good morning MN!

Last Hump Day of the year so make the best of it and go out with a bang!

BTW Troy I think my headlight issue is the wiring. I swapped bulbs with Des' car and they are the same. Wire harness must be wrong.......damn Hong Kong crap! New ones on the way.

Bottom line is that every sled breaks down. Ride what you want. Competition makes for better sleds for all of us. If we all rode the same thing it would suck.

Some sleds are known to break down more often than others. The Skidoo 800 being one of them. Simple fact.

Wouldn't keep me from potentially owning some other Skidoo but never the 800.

Good morning guys.
