New member here!

Hey everyone, I'm new to the snowmobile scene as of this year! Ive been riding Yamaha Banshees for years, and finally had to get on the train with buying a sled.

Ill be riding in SW Michigan 90% of the time, on my 96' Vmax 600 XT I just picked up. Any feedback on this sled appreciated, as I don't know much about it yet.

You may be interested in some products I have to offer as well. I own JDS Customs where I specialize in custom ATV aftermarket metal products. Now getting involved in the snowmobile world, I will be expanding as much as I can to help out this crowd!

here is my first snowmobile related project. a snowflap for my buddies 800 Ski Doo.

Im looking forward to be a part of another great forum!
-JD

heres my sled:

Thanks for the props guys!! Here is some more pics of the sled, trying to clean her up for the season. I got it for $880 and it runs great, did I get a good deal?

Ohh, and I live in Union, MI about 45min. south of Kzoo.
