Thanks to this site I now have a good running and performing sled. I got help with rebuild question, carb questions, clutching question, and suspension questions.. and whenever I post there is an answer in less than and hour most of the time. this is a great site.

I am fairly new to this forum and just got around to reading all of this thread. I just had to post and add something. I agree with everything everybody has said but I'd like to compliment you all on something.You don't snub me cause I'm a girl.I tend to jump in with ideas for people's problems. I only do this cause I have helped my husband for years fixing sleds on and off and he is really good at it. Plus I have 5 brothers and we all have at least 3 or 4 sleds. Apart from talking to these guys and a few others like other mechanics, when it comes to me talking sled stuff, most guys just look at me as if I MUST be wrong. Here, I feel very comfortable to jump in anytime. Thanks guys!

I have to agree - the guys on here are pretty great! For the most part, very respectful, and always a riot. It's a good crew!

I'm really enjoying this site, and I want to say thanks to RJGleason for walking me through my pesky lighting coil issue. That was about 250 miles ago and she's been trouble free ever since. I was this close to selling it cheap or lighting it on fire I was so frustrated! I'm sure glad I didn't.

Thanks again RJ. And thank to all the Mods that keep this place running.

I too appreciate the information I get from the site. I was a little nervous about buying the two sleds I did until I found out that I could get reliable information and troubleshooting tips from you guys. I have also tried to pass on what I have learned and figured out about the sleds to other newbies so they too can enjoy riding instead of wrenching. I hope that this site stays alive for a very long time so I can continue to get good information without all the BS I see being spewed on other sites. Thanks Again for a great site and great folks to converse with.
