    Perhaps wrong size on the glove.....mine seem good when I do wear them, using either of the compartments, but I normally only use  the "grip" compartment vs. the "warm" one.

     

    I like the light idea, but seeing as I run with no cords to my helmet 95% of the time, I see that will not work without the cords by the looks of it.

    I really only plug mine in when riding at night or when lots of snow dust to give anyone behind me better visibility.

    Looks good 👍 

     

    How are you finding the new klim gloves?

    Care to share any info on that light you have on the back of the mission helmet?

    The Fuzion gloves I just can’t get to fit properly but the Klimate gloves I am wearing from last season are so much more comfortable and even Saturday at minus 24 my hands weren’t cold. 

    Here is a link to the Bite harder Safety light kit. 
    we have it on both of our helmets and most of our friends have also bought them, very very bright even during the day the visibility is bright.

  4. Got back last night from our 4 day trip up north, conditions were excellent, did about 900 miles. The ride from hearst to Geraldton was good, glad we got to experience it. They’ve done quite of bit of brushing and removed the tag alders from the trail, few here and there but nothing major, really starts to get awesomely from the Pagwa river west. We made it in good time and did the big loop around Longlac which was spectacular to say the least and did the smaller loop the next day. We stayed at the Between the Bridges Inn, nice place good restaurant, also had pizza at the Longlac Pizzeria which was very good. I’d definitely do the trip again and maybe stay in longlac an extra night to do more exploring in the area. On a sled note our VR1 was incredible on gas and oil consumption, had no problem going the 150 miles without topping up and still had about 5 litres left. On our biggest day of riding we did just over 250 miles and used one quart of oil. My 850 is noticeably thirstier lol.

  5. I have been using the Qualipieces carbides this year and have both the Adventures and the treks, Here is my take on them.

     

    Treks work really well in hard pack trails, not super agressive in the the corners

    Adventures- love them for all types of conditions, been running the 4 inch carbide but am getting a set of the 8 inch as I think they will be a little more agressive for cornering.

     

    Last season I ran the 8 inch ACS carbides on my gripper skiis and was quite happy with them, great longevity to them

     

    Hope this helps

  6. Spent the weekend in Temagami at the Polaris Ambassador meet and ride, had a great time meeting fellow riders and ambassadors from Ontario, with the support of the riders and sponsors we raised 4000 for the local snowmobile club.

    Anyone on here own one of these? Just wondering how people are finding this new motor. Would be really interested to hear from someone who has one that was a past 900 ace owner on how the two compare.

    If you are looking to see and demo one, Call Mike at Rickward's, I was just talking with him and they have one in stock.

    Your let’s just say your..misinformed.. This is different situation than having ofsc change existing vin on a permit to a new one..I did gift card on my new sled this fall as I did not have vin number at deadline of purchase for permit. About 10 days before Christmas went on line and redeemed gift card w vin number and permit was in my mail just after New Years. Very quick and efficient. Would hate to see someone not take this permit because of a misunderstanding how this works. Cheers 

    Agreed I got my trail

    permit in about 4 days after I redeemed it.

  9. Not the Ranger but we ended up trading in our Tacoma and got a Highlander XSE instead through my dealership group. I just never got comfortable with the Tacoma, Fuel economy was horrible and unless we were towing I never really felt secure driving it in the winter.

    Switching to the Highlander is night and day difference in comfort and handling and fuel economy is much better, Plus 2022 was the last year you could get one with the V6 and personally I am not a fan of turbo's.

     

    With regards to the Ranger I heard there is redesign about to be released any day now, might want to wait and see what the changes are to the 2023's.

     

    Hope this helps

    In case you haven't seen this.

     

    Matrix Seat

    Thanks, its really weird cause my 2023 seat foam and my brothers was white and soft vs what others are saying. One of those things you need to actually check the seat out. I am fine with trading the higher seat position over the softer seat. My knees aren't what they used to be lol. 

     

    @Re:Leaf lol I have been thinking of Dave quite a bit in trying to figure out the seat thing.

    I thought one of the pros of the poo seats was they were flat (that other manufacturers are following suite on) and firmer - did things change based on some peoples negative feedback perhaps?

     

    My seat is a bit on the plush side too for my liking, apparently if I put the 850 seat on, they are firmer and I think a bit higher, but you lose the rear seat compartment storage if I’m not mistaken. 

    My 21 had a vet firm seat, 22 was much softer and the 22 seemed a little more soft yet again, for me it’s more the  seating position vs the comfort being a little higher up. 

  12. Thought I would ask, is there anyone out there with a Polaris Matryx that has the very firm seat that would be interested in trading for one for the softer foam? My seat is from a 2023 XCR all black.

    The harder foam is yellow which is the one I am looking for.

     

    Thanks in advance

    Please let us know how it was. I'm heading up on Wednesday for my first time there. 

     

    I'm looking forward to getting out and playing in the forest even if conditions are not optimum. 

    It was quite good, we put on 75 miles for the day
