Buying two BADASS 2-stroke cheap sleds! And it's RACE TIME!

[@Dubsinsauce]

Absolutely love the snowmobile content. I'm not really into side by sides because they're way too expensive so I think doing content like this will appeal to more people. I'd love to see the same kind of thing in the summer with $1000 jet skis!

[@ChaseLandMgmt]

Not a fan of a 40k sxs, but like 20k sleds you can maybe ride a few times a year unless you travel? Just busting your balls, I have both and it’s it’s a terrible use of money but that’s why I work. Lol

[@Dubsinsauce]

@CHASE Land Management My main point was that I don't own a sxs that's worth 5 times what my car is worth, but I could easily go out and buy one of the snowmobiles these guys are riding. Barrier to entry is pretty low. Also, I live 5 minutes away from sxs blog, and if you go a few hours up north there's snow 5 months out of the year. Driving a few hours doesn't cost that much.

[@brianadams429]

Only place in the south you could possibly use a snowmobile would be Miami. Do you know how much Columbian snow you would need?🤣🤣

[@funtyes1970]

@@ChaseLandMgmt well depends where you live . if someone buy a sled they dont get much snow that on them . there a lot of places in US get a lot of snow , look how much snow Mammoth CA got this year i think it was over 600 inches just saying

I haven't been on a snowmobile in over 48 years it was my uncle Ralph's ARTIC CAT I believe it was a Panther or something along those lines. I know it's seat looked like it was a cheetah or jaguar print. I was 6 years old so I thought it was awesome

I sold my 2001 ZRT 800 LE Triple/Triple D&D pipes 2 months before their snowmobile challenge lol.... only had 2300 miles on it, 220 studs. I live about 1 hour from their shop too T_T. Wouldve loved to see them use it on the channel lmao. I wouldve sold it to doug for 1000$ just because i love this channel so much.

[@X-Cessive_landscaping]

​@Chris Harding nice man I had a 01 zrt 800 swaped with a thunderkitty 1000. Thing was an absolute blast

[@jeffreyhagelin3672]

The TRA blew up simply because it was due for a rebuild. The fiber bushings were worn out, causing the clutch to bind and wobble on its axis. When properly maintained and set up, it's probably the best primary clutch out there.

[@mylanmiller9656]

The TRA is far from the best Primar clutch but it is the toughest. The P85 is the best most sensitive Clutch but it needs Matanane if you want it to live. I have been a Skidoo Guy all my life but when you see the underpowered Polaris out clutch you comming out of a corner you soon gain respect for their clutch.

[@Turbo_Dan]

Been onboard since the sled content started. You'll love ERX! Welcome to MN a few days early!

[@doodrew800]

There is a reason Doo had those pipes for a short time only in the 98 Mach. They scavenge exhaust up in the points, which causes blowback off throttle and goes boom. 3 sleds in our group all went down. One had 12 pistons, 2 heads, and various cylinders. 99 or aftermarket has normal looking pipes... find a set of those pipes. The 99's and later had no issues running them.

[@Moto-Hobo]

I love the snowmobile material! You guys gave me snowmobile fever for the first time in years. I bought 3 of them for this season haha

[@clean_lly04]

I had a clutch bind up like that, I thought I seized it up also, it ended up being the clutch was still engaged and didn’t disengage when I left off throttle, I ended up spinning it over by hand, and then it disengaged and hit my hand almost broke it, was swelled up for couple days lol

[@enjoybot]

Love this content! Now get a 1997 thundercat 900 and see if it can own that tripple ski doo, we must know. Everyone thumbs up this if you want to see that!!!

[@matthewyoung7246]

My buddy had a Mach Z . Lots of trips to the top of the mountain to then snowboard down in Utah. Good memories

[@jacobyochens1100]

Wish it was an SRX instead of the SXR but still a great sled. Those SRX 700s are monsters and so damn reliable.

[@jeffreyhagelin3672]

The problem with the TRA on the Mach Z was connected to needing a re- build. The fiber wear points had exceeded their maintenance life and like any clutch, was worn out. That would account for the inconsistent shifting performance and the sloppy shift in the clutch. through it's travel.

[@markh.2569]

As an ex-owner of a 98 F3 600 3x3 my back hurts just seeing that chassis again. And the TRA is the redhead of the clutching world, get a P85 on it and move forward. Have fun at ERX, great place.

Next time, tip your sled on its side, undo the 4 bolts that hold your suspension to your tunnel, and you can swing the track and suspension all the way out from under the sled, completely remove suspension if you want.... It takes 2 minutes and is very simple

The Polaris storm 800 triple was the best muscle sled hands down. With some suspension work and some good studs and good track you could doing some long wheelies and the wheelies you could do when already going 30 mph and then cracking it wide open was so much fun. Then the 92 650 Indy triple also was another great sled. If you can find any of those sleds in good condition you should by them up immediately you will not be disappointed
