Default bombardier is in trouble

) I was sponsered by Polaris and Fox just to name a few.
No bias at all, eh? Your broad statements about how Doo "hasn't made a competitive mountain sled in years" is what set me off, Mr. Racer/Hillclimber. What was the first stock sled to climb the Jackson hole Hill climb? I believe it was a 94 or 95 Summit 670.
You figure I stepped into your world? Hahaha! LA!? I live an hour from the Rocky Mountains of western Canada and I ride the steep and deep of Revelstoke, BC nearly every weekend for many years now. I'm not a racer or a competitive/sponsered hillclimber, but I wager that I have more seat time on a snowmobile than most folks. I too have owned all the brands over the years. To say that Bombi doesn't make a deep snow sled that runs with the rest is misleading and wrong. The differences between the RMK's, Summits, and the rest have fallen down to rider set up. Stock vs. Stock, all the sleds are very close the last 3 or 4 years.

what are the ski-doo sleds at the dealer now they have a 800 and 900 the 900 has a color set-up like a baja. they are saying they are doing well on these sleds. the sales guy said they took the 800 to a moto cross track and beat bikes in the mud. hope i'm not passing nonsence, they are always trying to get me to buy sleds.

Just to add, I don't want to start a pi$$ing match either. But a sled set up for RMSHA is not really a "mountain sled". It is a purpose only set up for hill climbing. Most hillclimb courses do not have a bunch of deep snow on them after a few passes. They more resemble a mougal run on a ski hill......and I will concede that under these race conditions, the Bombi's have not been as competative as some others. I also think that the new REV chassis will change this, but we will see.


Somehow a Doo got here

My last sled...
