Neglected $650 Snowmobile Brought Back to Life

[@blackwidow7218]

Thank you for being a valued partner, Kincade!!

Just a heads up!! If you keep the sled for longevity make sure you look into the crank shaft bearings “isoflex grease” Ski Doo 800s are very prone to having their outside bearings burn up the grease and leave your bearings dry/loose lubricity! Usually occurs every 3k-3.5k miles. Disregard this comment if you knew this, I haven’t watch the other videos yet😂

Yesss Kincade!!!!

Found your channel thanks to this sled. Would've loved a price rundown at the end. Overall, love your style. Keep it up!!

[@KincadePavich]

Much appreciated! Good point - I could do a cost breakdown video on it. That said, I was in for a total of $1670 including buying ice scratchers as well as a new starter assembly after mine crapped out on the first ride. I did save the cost of replating with Millennium sponsoring that, which would've been $547.

Love the video. A tip that my grandfather showed me for heating up those bearing is to wrap them in a couple paper towels, get them soaking wet and put them in the microwave for 45 seconds. They will heat up way more than you will ever get them on the stove and I assure you the microwave will be fine. I've rebuilt .any bikes using this method.

[@KincadePavich]

Very interesting! Haven't heard of that one. No problem with metal in the microwave huh?

[@MrAndyloz]

great job

[@KincadePavich]

Thank you!

[@tsjjensen8775]

Well done sir

[@spencerfunk2wheels]

Thinking about buying one now that I've seen your build! Thank you for sharing everything! Do you have any advice when it comes to choosing a beginner snowmobile?

[@KincadePavich]

I am still learning, but it certainly does seem like the rider forward sleds like this one are worth it! This was the "Rev", first generation of the rider forward position. Sleds have come a LONG way - I've ridden friends new ones in the last couple months, and they're incredible. I personally am finding myself to be a SkiDoo fan over Polaris I think, but that's all personal preference. Overall I would say go for it - it's SO fun.

@@KincadePavich I really appreciate the insight! Thanks so much and keep pumping out the awesome content! You'll have 50k by the end of the month and I"ll be here for your next milestones too!

I would say go for some cheap rider forward sled, like that first gen rev. Those sleds are legendary, because they are easy to work on and are really good bang for your buck. If you are buying a sled the things to look out for are worn track and bent/cracked frame. Track is expensive and frame is hard to fix if you don't have any experience. One check for bent frames, a-arms can be to look out panel gaps etc. If shock is closer to a piece of the sled on other side and further away on the other, something can be bent. I suggest you to take a buddy with you with experience , when going to look at a sled. Hopefully that helps. My english is not the best. Greetings from Finland:)
