02Sled Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Summer hasn't even started yet and I am ready for winter. I got the ownerships in the mail for the two new sleds yesterday and although ours are still in the crates they sent me a picture of an identical sled to the two we have.

02Sled Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 It's going to be a very long summer and it just started however the boat is getting dropped off for new canvas in the morning and then hitting the water Friday morning. It will do as a distraction for a few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 boating on georgian bay is the best Only thing is they keep moving the rocks so you really need to keep your eyes open.... damn water levels go up and down. What was safe a year ago may not be today. Good news seems the water levels are up this year though. I kind of like the Trent as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Awesome looking snowmobiles. The green skidframes add to the awesome lines of these sleds. Get the medium windshield, perhaps with a mirror if Arctic Cat offers a built in mirror option. Also look into the OEM rear storage bag (fits nicely) and be careful re fit of handlebar bag (too big and it covers the dials - try a few at the October show or at the dealer if you pick it up sooner, which I suspect you will). I mention storage because you do a lot of trail patrol and tend to carry extra gear and maps ("guides"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Pussy Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I bought a new 2015 XF7000 LXR 137" at the end of March. I got the last of the real Cat clutches. I got my post delivery inspection done and found many things that could have ended in tears on the first ride. Twisted off belt guard bolt, leaking anti-freeze, loose chain tensin adjustment, seat heater not plugged in. Poor PDI by the dealer but now I have peace of mind fixing everything myself and done right.. I still have to change the rear axle to real wheels and add outside wheels for reliability and some mirrors inside the windshield. Oh yah, and some license numbers. The pictures are with the sled in touring trim with all bags and GPS. I added a rad guard, 50 watt sump heater, 50 watt block heater, seat lock knob, shield receptacle, goggle/glove warming bag, tank bag, touring bag, and a real windshield. As you can see, some of these things are really custom and I will get lots of questions this winter. BP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

02Sled Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Very nice ride... what size is the windshield. I will be swapping out the stock windshield on my ZR 7000 and what you have looks to be what I am after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Pussy Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The windshield is an acessory Arctic Cat 17" high part # 6639-344 for ZR, XF, M 7000 sleds. It is pretty high and may not fit inside an enclosed clam trailer. I need to heat up and bubble out my 06 double Toy Carrier. I knew I would get questions. BTW the rad guard is standard on a Yamaha Viper BUT it is available and cheaper from Cat. Most dealers will know nothing about it. BP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't pick the new sleds up until the October show at the International Centre and have been debating which windshield to swap the little one it comes with to. I was speaking to the dealer and he was talking about sizes in inches but unless you see it you don't really know. I am more concerned about being warm, especially for my wife than I am trying to look "cool" and end up being cold. The one thing I will miss on the current sled is the adjustable windshield. A thumb screw on each side would allow you to change the angle raising and lowering the top edge of the windshield about 4 inches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
