ABOUT THE ONLY THING SKI-DOO HAS FOR FANS ARE 380 500 AND NOW A 550 A FAN WOULD KEEP THE WEIGHT DOWN FOR HER NOT TO MENTION THE KID. I DON'T NEED TO BUY BRAND NEW THEY CAN' REALLY GO MUCH LONGER ON THE SUSPENSION TRAVEL AND STILL BE TRAILABLE I THINK THERE ARE KIND OF PUSHING IT NOW. AND IF THESE FIRECATS AND REVS ARE SOOOO GOOD WHY ARE THERE TONS OF 2003'S FOR SALE? I WILL STICK WITH THE ZX CHASSIS FOR NOW-TRIED AND TRUE JUST LIKE THE INDY CHASSIS AND THE OLD ZR'S AS WELL

Fendrguy · 11-26-2003, 09:38 PM

your right about the suspensions.
you really dont need more then a good 10".
The arctic cats, I just dont care for there EFI's that just about all there sleds have now.

01MXZ800 · 11-26-2003, 09:46 PM

I DON'T CARE FOR EFI PERIOD IF SOMETHING SHITS ON THE TRAIL YOUR SCREWED THE DPM ON THE DOO'S ARE 100% FOOLPROOF
IF ANY COMPONENT FAILS IT WILL RUN LIKE A CONVENTIONAL CARBED SLED, BOTTOM LINE NO WALKING. AFREIND OF MINE ZR580 JUST QUIT LIKE YOU KIT THE KILL SWITCH OUT ON THE TRAIL, $300.00 LATER HAD EFI FIXED BUMMER!

Have you noticed that most of the new SD look like the REV body style?
It looks like what Dodge did too the Pickup, the next year all trucks looked like the Dodge.

I wonder if the next few years everyones going to look like the SD.

01MXZ800 · 11-26-2003, 09:54 PM

DON' KNOW, WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS SD ADAPT THE A ARM FRONT SUSP. TO THE ZX CHASSIS THE "NEW RIDING POSITION"
NOT FOR EVERY ONE. NOT EVERYONE IS A BLAIR MORGAN WANNABEE. I HAVE RODE THE REVS AND FIRECATS AND I WALKED AWAY UNIMPRESSED, AND NOT LIKING THE REV GOES AGAINST THAT ROTAX BLOOD IN MY VEINS

Fendrguy · 11-26-2003, 09:54 PM

My uncle had the 700 wildcat new out of the package with the EFI.
I told him you have gotton the carbs, he says No, Its new it wont have any problems.
weel in the first 500 miles he broke down 3 times sent it back to Arctic cat everytime and they never got it right. he traded it in for the following year wildcat and he's never had a problem, 4 years runnin, over 6000 mls.

Fendrguy · 11-26-2003, 09:58 PM

I hav'nt tried one yet, but a bud did last yaer he's 6', said his knees where on the dash it was'nt comfortable, felt like he was sitting on the handlebars.

01MXZ800 · 11-26-2003, 10:02 PM

I ALMOST BOUGHT A WILD CAT 700 JUST BEFORE I BOUHGT THE MXZ GUY WANTED $1200 HAD NEW CLUTCH(COMET) NEW TRACK
NEEDED CARB WORK,SOMEONE BEAT TO THE PUNCH WAS MINT SHAPE SHARP LOOKIN SLED NOT A CAT FAN BUT PRICE WAS RIGHT

Fendrguy · 11-26-2003, 10:05 PM

I can say that, his 2nd wild cat had some Punch if you where'nt holding on the sled would leave ya.
wheel stands where'nt a problem either.

BTW GETTIN ANYWHERE WITH YOUR CAT? AND BOY IS IT QUIET ON THE FORUM TONITE

Fendrguy · 11-26-2003, 10:18 PM

I saw that earlier, after i posted back to you I was on the way out.

I ordered the CDI the other day.
It'll make a good sled to get her going, she's only tried my sled in the field she likes it but, scared of the power, I think its the pipes more then anything those Deckers are (were loud).
Heck I only paid 225 for it, its got 2200 mls electric start and reverse.

01MXZ800 · 11-26-2003, 10:22 PM

FIRST RIDE!!! 5" OF WET SNOW, NOT GREATEST CONDITIONS BUT BEATS LOOKING AT IT ON THE TRAILER

Fendrguy · 11-29-2003, 09:47 PM

I hope you tryed to see what it had and holeshoted your lawn, so in the spring you have to get the wheelbarrow out and shovel some loam down and rake it.

That'll teach ya to get the first ride in!

Hope it was fun.
