They are very popular indeed especially on the southern coast of Labrador. I personally know a few ppl with them. My mother and her husband were a little too late a couple years ago on ordering and because they wouldn’t get it until the following summer they got the Silver Dolphin instead. In my...

lots of snow left...you just had to rub that part in didnt you? Lol. Absolutely no steaming of windshields this winter here in Labrador. Extremely mild season caused thinner than normal ice conditions on top of getting dumped with snow before any ground freezing. Last trip on the ice was Easter...

Seems like right above the radiator that sits on topside of the engine but, seeming as how my Venture doesn’t have the same additional rad, I’m often convinced I’m getting steam from the heat of my headlights. In fact, as a crude but effective remedy, I keep a black neck pillow (colour doesn’t...

It’s a nuisance for sure, lifting the hood, but it eliminates having to continue on your journey looking over the frosted up windshield instead of through it for sure, especially having the highest windshield option. My Venture TF does the same and unfortunately there is no hood to lift up and...

Couldn’t help but notice we use VK’s in similar temps and climate. Not sure if you had the VK Professional prior to the VK Pro II but if you did, I’m sure you’re familiar with the windshield steaming up and frosting over while stopped idling after the sled has warmed up in cold weather...

The Vmax4 doesn’t have to come back. My two 800’s run like a top and engines never been opened up. Not many other muscle sleds that old can say the same. And I’ve criticized Yamaha on their sleds before this joint venture all happened, especially their options as of recent but that’s me digging...

That’s just it though. I don’t need the dealer support and never have. I’ve never seen the inside of one of my Yamaha engines, I wouldn’t know what it’s like to need to change a piston or a crank etc. My need is a product I feel completely confident in on getting me home off of the frozen ice...

I did call him a dick, not denying or hiding it. He was being one. End of story. Go defend someone else.

Thanks for speaking up and showing others that I’m not the only one. There are many of us who feel this way. In fact I have true blue friends in my circle who have gone to Vipers and Sidewinders and even they talk in disgust of the cheap, thrown together feel of the Yamaha’s made by Arctic Cat...

Well what he said was a dick comment. And I’ve had 100’s of conversations on this site over the years and both welcomed constructive criticism as given it. It’s never ever turned personal no matter how much disagreement there has been bud.

And what’s your problem? Just trolling for arguments or?... Pop into a conversation out of knowwhere like that and I can see why you got yelled at.

Believe me, without Yamaha I’m in trouble because it’s not just Cats I don’t like, it’s Ski-Doo and Polaris. I stick with what has been most reliable and last the longest because again I can’t afford the down time of trips to the shop nor afford new units every couple years. Fortunately for me...

First time I’ve experienced someone being a dick on this site ever. No, I’m not the only one who hasn’t and doesn’t want to switch to Yamacats. And, my snowblower comment was referring to the fact that they were unavailable for a number of years but then returned. As for them not being...

Would rather see them stop with snowmobiles all together, that I could eventually get over sooner than accepting the idea of riding a Cat. I would just buy a couple late model sleds that they still make and shelve them until my current wears out. I don’t know what’s keeping them in the...
