I'm done, not happy about it, but had a great season. Sleds are sitting on the trailer, Mid April I'll pull the motorcycle and Mustang out for spring and put the sleds away in the back of the garage with a proper summer storage/cleaning/greasing. I'm pissed I cant ride anymore, but when it's 50+ outside and sunny it's hard not to be excited for summer

I may have to put my wife's XLT away as the snow is a little deep for it. My new CF8SP is having no problems, though.
We were out on Saturday and still have a full 3 feet in the bush, 5 feet or more in the ditches and low spots.
Usually we are melting by now, so when it does melt, it's going to be a flood.

Put stabilizer in the machines and let em run for about 5 minutes a piece to get the fuel into the carbs. How does one go about fogging an engine, I feel like I should do this even though all the machines are under tarps or in my garage.

Must be nice. Lucky bastard. 
I hope I die like my grandpa did - quietly in his sleep... not like the rest of the people in the car.

They'll be "put away" this weekend, although they have been back on the trailer since end of feb.Also curious how many of us fog their motors and the pros & cons. we've stored with fogging and without. Hasn't seemed to make a difference either way(yet?)

What I do on my RMK is run stabilizer through the carbs and engine. Then you go to your dealer and get a can of fogging spray. Take the airbox off and spray the fogging oil into the back of the carbs while the sled is running. If I remember right you do this for a minute, but don't quote me. Usually the can will say how long to spray for.

Mine are in the garage, need to do some small projects on them in the coming months but I start them once or twice a month. The snow is melting fast and it sucks!!!
