yep i was stupid enough to go buy a sled(puck it up in the morning) again after being out of it for 8 years. ii should have my head checked lol. so maybe i'll have to spend less time on the computer(unless im buying upgraded) and more time wishing for that 4 letter dirty word called snow.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

well what kind and make is it???.......got some pics??......are you getting insurance and trail pass for the year or just using it around your own land??......Caper................

 

its a 06'yamaha apex ER you just register it and ride any where you want to. no insurance but might look in to it.

 

I like the color, but it's a Yamabog [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

i dont think i would like the 4 stroke polaris has. my last sled was my 99' xc 700 so its a whole new ballgame now. besides i love the sound of this sled w/benderpipes on it. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Hey!!!!!.....I had great luck with Yamaha......I was looking at Yamaha Quads........But got the better deal with Polaris ...And The Yamaha in the same price range had solid rear axle with DRUM brakes..................So I stayed away from that!!.......As for sleds.......86 Yamaha Phazer,1889 Yamaha Exciter(still have)and Yamaha V-Max 500 1994 (still have),,,,,,,,,They been great to me .....That Phazer had well over 15000 KM on it when I sold it......No major work done to it!!.........Caper............

 

I wasn't too keen on the 4-strokes when they first came out, but now with big CCs and turbos, what's not to like?? My last ride was a 00 XC700 and I LOVED it. Almost 9500 miles when I got rid of it and nothing major went wrong with it. But the winters will have to get a whole lot better before I could ever justify another sled.

 

i got out of sleds 10 years ago had a 90 mach 1 ski doo, winters in s wisconsin are crap did alot of up north trips till i put it thru the ice so then had to rebuild it so i sent the motor to F.A.S.T and had it done right after the first guy screwed up the port job thing was a rocket ship for the size of the motor kept it one year me and all my buddys sold them and bought atvs to bad there isnt much for trails in s wisconsin.

 

Wow, nice sled Stendori! I'd love to have a 4-stroke sled. My last one was a '96 Mach 1.

 

Looks good Bro.! Wow, did you hit the lottery
or something, new Quads and Sled, man Santa
has been good this year!

Yea, I live in the Mid-atlantic so this area sux
for snow. My wife and I rode snowmobiles on
our HoneyMoon 12 yrs ago up in upper State
New York. We had a blast! Can't remember what
type/model but all I know is that I would love to
have a sled but like the other poster above, CAN'T
justify it living here!

Congrats on your new toy, looks like this winter
being ATV'less won't be all that boring after all!
