attaboy....I got my track today, discovered it's a 121 though so she wont fit, anyone need a new track? (matt!?!?!?! haha)
136 will be here tomorrow.
Your ZRT was the loudest of the group in my opinion, i loved it too....that thing would be rediculous with a 1.5 paddle  Going to togg i hope???
And speaking of loud exhausts, firekitty can tell you how loud a 155hp 600 ski doo mod motor is hahahahah someone had to leave the garage.
might ride friday or saturday night, plenty of snow redfield-north. heard reports parish had 2 feet of fresh pow pow, lets go play boys!
wheres the vid!?
omg, that sled was wicked loud, possibly the loudest I have evr heard before.lol xcrxlt136(my dad) ended up leaving the garage.
Hopefully the track gets in today so we can ride tonight Brenden!

^ I think you need a clutch alignment tool.
MDManiac - not TOGG for me. There was supposed to be a NY group ride 4 hrs west of here (Cherry Creek) but lack of snow says no. My spring is supposed to be delivered monday. No 1.5 paddle on my ZRT haha. I'll be sticking with my 1.25

We are out of snow. Not enough to trail ride from here, you'd have to go atleast to camden (15 minutes up the road) there's 2-3 trailhead parking spots there. Camden legion having the best conditions the fastest. 
Might ride tomorrow night depending on whats going on, but we'll have to trailer!

The video is 11.7 mb.....too large to e-mail to ACM. we will have to figure something else out if you guys want to see the ride to the Taberg gas station. Sorry I have had no luck trying to convert the file and it's way too big to send it to anywhere through my phone, too. It's great you got a new track so quick, have fun out there. Maybe see you this weekend, but I don't have any rearview mirrors on my machine. 
Is it ok to unload across from your house again. I am probably going to ride Saturday.....hopefully polarissledneck28 can make it, too. You are more than welcome to ride along. 
Can you upload it to YouTube and then post the link??

^ When I checked youtube I didn't see the format ny-rider has on their list. I think he said it was a 3g3 file or something.

oouch dem der fighten words ny_driver!! very well done!!
sled has a track, only problem is i lose the use of my extrovert (nonslip) drivers, so that kinda reallly blows.
I give belden motosports a solid d+ rating at best, only due to low price. everything else is attrocious with this whole purchase gone way wrong. I called today about my track to see if i could run non slips with a track that isnt fully clipped he prompted me to "talk to a dealer"..HELLO i thought i was talking to one....friggen idiots.

acm i thought it was a lil girl on a polaris 340 you spanked. not to 700 twins!!;)
i was on the resivior last night, it was really foggy. i crossed it after dinner to the other side of the trail. a short 100 yard crossing. it was one of the times u just kept going and wait for the other side. haha it was fun:)

Hey guys, I went up to Tug Hill again today and thought I would post a few follow ups to our ride the other day. I dropped at the Grist Mill in Parish and rode 205 miles! For almost the whole day the trails were flat, wide and FAST! I hit some of my favorites - O'Hara Road in Redfield and the Camp 4 Road. I went a long way and I did something I had said that I was not going to do - I could not resist doing the reservoir again. Actually the reservoir had about 3-5 inches of mostly virgin snow on it. I took a one handed video of the ride. It is on my cheap old camera, but hopefully you can see how nice the snow is. I'll also post a few pics. I was taking the video with one hand and driving with the other, so it is bumpy. No broken belts or blown tracks, but I did come across a hit and run accident - no injuries, but the sled was pretty damaged and rolled over - not sure how the rider was not hurt.
Here is the little video I took.
Here is a pilot view on the reservoir:
There was alot of virgin snow:
These people were on one of the islands that is normally in the middle of the water:
Trails were in great shape:
The Turbines - blue sky - not like last week haha!
And, finally, I doubled the miles on the sled from when I bought it!
Peace - Dan

MD that is good that you rode with no damage! Really ruins the day. When I stopped to help at that accident on the trail, I was standing BS ing with one of the involved parties who was looking over my sled. Out of the blue he pointed out that I was missing a suspension bolt. Oops. Who knows how long I have been riding without it, I did not notice it but based on the feel now that I have it back in place it has probably been a few rides.
Good luck at Togg!
