hola all.....
whats going on everyone....been on forums for long time, so i know how things work...
My dad and i used to have a 500 and 440 my whole life, until a couple years ago someone decided to steal them. So for a long time i have been away from the sled scene. but this week i picked up a few sleds for dirt cheap, and now im back.
I also have an 04 srt4, 87 ski boat, 96 seadoo xp, 96 dodge ram 1500...recently just sold 2 of my bikes, stand up jet ski, my quad, and one of my srt4s...
Edit: yea i just turned 25 and live in the west subs of Chi town....
I like to take alot of pics and going crazy, so youll be seeing alot of action shots

Welcome to the forum from Canada.
Good stuff, keep the pics coming!
Boats are starting to come out of the water up here now. Had a hard frost this week and I can hear the sledders starting up their sleds all around the neighbourhood.  |

It just never occurs to me that people in the big cities like Chicago would ride. But, if you are addicted, you're addicted! Welcome to the forum!

Take them out for a ride.
Then tell them next time that they have to bring their own.

My answer is, "Quit yer bitchen!, you didn't pay for it!!"
"If you don't like it, buy your own!"
Usually shut them up, if not, they never get to ride my stuff again.

yea nowadays i just do it for myself...
Ive had 6 motorcycles and never once have i had anyone to ride with. I just picked up 3 sleds, that way i can have them tool around on something and not the one thatll be my pride n joy....
when i would take them boating and go thro $150 dollars in gas they would toss 5-10 bucks down and say sorry Im broke...and they wonder why i dont ask to see if they wanna go anymore...Now i just buy solo toys like sled, jet ski, and waverunner....screw them

Hey! cool stuff... if you can get that RXL running right your going to be very happy with the performance!! put a $25 heavier clutch spring in it and your acceleration will be awesome.... theyre fast machines for the 90's. I have a 92, that i put a suspension in from a 98, which helped alot with comfort. but they are very fun sleds when you get them for dirt cheap!!!
