revrnd Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 After the fiasco of last week, I picked up a black, yellow & white thing east of Ptbo today A side note to the trip. After tying down & tarping my sled in Timmins when the temp was around -24*, I told my trucker friend in North Bay, that I was going to get my AZ & buy a tractor & flat deck. I figure I've got half the training done for hauling lumber south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Very nice Revrnd. I can't quite make it out though, is it an 800 or 900? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signfan Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Brand new Chris? I have a 2016. Same sled. Absolutely love it. Great chassis, suspension and motor. The ultimate long distance touring sled. You'll love it. You just need to accessorize it now - mirrors - linq tunnel bag - brp muffs - maybe the glovebox extension and a gps - ice scratchers No more blown motors for you.

That's quite a shopping list LOL I got the tunnel bag, mirrors & muffs. Not sure about mounting the mirrors. If got handguards installed w/ mirrors. Folks w/ the XS chassis, how difficult is it to swap windshields? I'm thinking of keeping the stock 1 mirrorless for riding down south. For trips north, remove the handguards, add the muffs & add the next taller w/s (as per irreverent) w/ the mirrors. Some pics from today in Stoney Lake-land A mixed bag of riders out there & we've got 2" of fresh snow thru the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pt3189 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 I do like the slight retro stripes on it. Would have to be of a certain age to remember that look. No more stinky snowmobile gear with that 900. Good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
