[@JeremyRhydes]

Give a like for the previous owner of this snowmobile. A fellow rider. May he rest in peace. What do you think of this deal? Comment good deal or bad deal down below and I'll post the results!

[@richardthomas1743]

It was a GREAT deal!

[@JeremyRhydes]

@@richardthomas1743 I think so too!

[@justinkaderlik4952]

Good deal clean sled. Here in Minnesota, we got nothing for snow here too. 😢

[@GenSparks]

Excellent deal.

[@jeffreyhowes7397]

Great deal buddy may the sled gods bless you with some snow Soon and can't wait for the race coming

[@marcrothuss6179]

Absolutely killer find for $600! Gotta appreciate the condition

[@skyrubin2257]

Cheers from Steamboat, Colorado. About 83” or 210cm of snow so far. We can sled but we need more! Nice work fixing up the 470.

[@rubbabubba6489]

Great find. I can't believe that thing was running on that gas. You know it's a good one if it runs on mud.

[@DeerHunterDanOfficial]

Nice find Jeremy! We just got fresh powder last night so will be ripping the sleds today! Thanks for posting!

[@JeremyRhydes]

Enjoy the ride! Thank you for watching and supporting!

[@ripsaw5003]

Love the videos, it would be cool to see you do a (WILL IT MAKE IT HOME) video kinda like vice-grip garage. Keep up the great work 👍

[@JeremyRhydes]

Oh damn! That is a great idea! Haha I'm adding it to my future video list!

[@ripsaw5003]

@@JeremyRhydes your videos are awesome, but I think doing the (WILL IT MAKE IT HOME VIDEO'S) will challenge you more.

[@bobg3034]

I had a MXZ 470 that I dragged raced back in the day. With some clutch tuning and change the rotary valve for more port timing it was pretty impressive!

[@johnhummingbird6837]

You got a hell of a deal that thing is clean

[@cheddarsgarage2076]

600$ that’s a deal for something that’s been in storage and looks like that. Nice one man !!

Thanks Jeremy! Have a good Times now !

[@JpJp-zd7vu]

Nice & clean unit , Great deal in my opinion . No snow here in S Maine yet either ! Hopefully the storm forcasted for 2nt Saturday into Sunday will be semi substantial . Parts just arrived this morning for 08n Rev xp , Fuel tank line Grommet , & a pair of carb Air Intake Adapters . The originals had a few hair line cracks forming . Brake system flushed & bled , primary & secondary disassembled , inspected , cleaned , & back together , new hyfax installed , all skid idler wheel bearings cleaned & re-packed , rear suspension arms greased , new plugs , etc .....JUST NEED SNOW !

[@ranrew51]

You make reallllly realllllly good videos brother. There's always more to spice things up, if needed, but I'm pretty sure you're %100 just being yourself on camera and it works so good! Always a joy when a new video comes out

[@JeremyRhydes]

This comment means a lot to me. Thank you.

[@641Junkies]

Around 14 inches here in south central Iowa. Just secured a sled today on marketplace.

[@davidhallquist7220]

Man that is a very clean sled 👍 I'm confident in saying you scored on the price 👌

[@WildhurstLodge]

We just got our first 3 inches😢 we had like 4ft this time last year…I own a resort on the trails and it’s like a ghost town right now. Snowmobilers are my main customers all winter, now they just sit in my bar and drown their sorrows and talk about the new sled sitting in the garage.

[@michaelfranzen3416]

Great looking sled. Another Vermonter here Got some yard time in with my 98 yamaha 700 vmax triple xtc deluxe

[@dennismartin5409]

4" on the ground, finally, here in upper peninsula of Michigan.. my 74' Panther loves it! Love all your videos!

[@kellyhay79]

We just got about 3” in Warman SK, Canada 2 days ago. First snow so far this yr.

[@ArcticJeff]

Hot dang, that is the cleanest, used sled that you've purchased, Jeremy Rhydes! They used to use that 470 liquid in the old Formula MX sleds. Its a peppy little motor.

[@official_brandonthompson6522]

I have the exact same sled that I bought for 600 a few months back. Cleaned the carb and it fired right up!!

[@Canadian-bandit]

583 is my favorite bullet proof engine had a 1996 doo mxz 583 and now I got my 01 skidoo summit 800 and that's not all my sleds I think I have a snowmobile addiction happy trails y'all 🇨🇦🇺🇲

[@chevyguy9827]

Great deal! I just picked up a 94 583 formula stx little rougher than yours but still descent it’s a pain in the butt to find parts for anything older than 96 anymore at least with ski doo….

[@coreygolfer919]

First off wanna say Rip to previous owner. My poppa is in hospital right now. So I’ll take all the prayers we can get if u guys don’t mind. I always watch for Sasquatch but never find him lol. I need another ride more hat as I lost mine riding. I’m gonna watch video over and over til I find him. Also please keep videos coming! This is my favorite channel on KZbin hands down

[@jamiesmith143]

Nice sled,man!!! My very first sled that I bought new was a 1995 ski-doo formula ss (670 Rotax). I had to put an electric start on it, or my dad couldn't start it. That 670 was a bear to start, very hi compression.

[@donaldfuller5041]

My 1st sled I bought brand new was a 90 Formula mx. Same basic motor that has. Never had a problem with it. I put more than 6k miles on it and changed the belt once.

[@JeremyRhydes]

They are bulletproof sleds for sure! I think I will keep this one.

[@ethanwilliams1825]

That's a really nice sled. That 470 is pretty snappy too.

Here in lower Michigan got about an inch but next week supposed to get hopefully 6 inches

[@jasonspellicy]

Northern lower michigan has maybe two inches at best. Chompin at the bit to ride my factory race sled!

Hey Jeremy, Loved the video. You got a great deal on that Formula ST. You keep them videos coming. I like the vintage sleds you get. Cant wait to see the video on the Yamaha Enticer. I have had several of those and currently have an older Yamaha Bravo. They are fun old sleds. Like you we, don't get a lot of snow. You asked what everyone has for snow. We are currently getting a blanket of snow (Sat. Jan 6)to cover the ground. We haven't had decent snow since mid-November. I live in Central Wisconsin. Keep up the good work and look forward to your next video!

[@NJP76]

Same over here by LaCrosse. Hell, I am at the point where if I hear we are getting "UP TO" an inch, I start celebrating, LOL. Not looking very hopeful here either. Oh well (if there is a positive side) at least I am not wearing out my sleds if I am not riding.

Anyway, I have been looking at a couple of storm tracks. Some say up to 6 inches. Yes, the tracks do look impressive...kind of. But I am guessing we will get maybe an inch if we are lucky. These storms may "look" impressive, but when they get here, they always seem to fizzle away. Will see what happens. Fingers crossed, My sleds are tired of just being yard queens, LOL.
