The DS is a sweet machine.

2 weeks ago I was at a snowmobile show and of course one of the ski-doo dealers had a DS on display. I had the oppertunity to really look it over, even sit on it. I was very impressed. The ergos are laid out nicely and it doesn't seem as wide or heavy as people say they are. They seem to be very comfortable. I wish I had the chance to ride one. This was only the second DS I've ever seen. If there was a bombardier dealer near me and they weren't so expensive. I'd consider it as my next quad.

I just got my DS,a couple of weeks ago,and love it.I also have a 99 400ex,mint condition 86-250r.The DS is special in ruff long wide open spaces,but also does fine on trails.The ex is special on trails but does fine on wide open spaces.I did burn a chain roller,But they have put a better one with bearings in it,and o far,so good.But man the power.WHEWWWWWWWWWWW>>>>>>>>>>>. Just my two cents.

Hey Bombban,
I looked into legalizing my DS for the Street here in Utah, ( it would be a riot to cruise on )I went to the safety and emissions inspector first, they told me what I'd need to add to comply, then I went to our local Police department to see what they had to add, they were cool and could not see a problem w/the idea as long as the Highway patrol signed off on it. Thats where the problem was they were total jerks, I explained that I had no intention of running the bike on the freeway ( you'd have to have a death wish here) but they quoted a list of ordinances that I'd have to get changed before a quad could be licensed for street use, so I dropped it. Let me know what you find out
good luck
