Hi guys, is the snow reaching the UP yet?(':pics:')(':yam:') All yamis, I see! I checked the maximum sled site, and it shows a big snow storm from South and North Dakota, Illinois and looks like to the UP...I had a nap which turned out to be a nighter...Woke up around 4am EST, and boy everyone...

I would wait for another year prior to wanting to see that on any Yamaha, just because it is something else more prone to possible failure...Not sure what it is like in the boonies down there, but any failure is life threatening even during warmer weather. Besides, these last few years have...

Hee hee, some of those sleds are as old as the younger TY members around here...Oops, showed my age...LOL...I still miss my old GT when it gets to -45...RX-E

One of the older boys around here...42 with all my Yamaha toys and adding more this year. RX-E

For a far western Arctic Yamaher, that is very similar to what we face here in Nunavut. We still use ours for attaining our country groceries too...as well as the trips between communities. I bring a battery as mentioned, which has a lot of cranking power, and if that doesn't work, we keep a...

LMAO...I really enjoyed that banter, even without the emoticons...It is like listening to my older brothers, both of whom are partially correct, but neither will back down...Ha, it is all in the family though...Thanks and if I can make it work, I will be getting a GT. RX-E

RX-E Has this years sledding season started for you yet? :) Hi, actually, we get three months break, July, August and September. The snow falls in September but never enough to sled on until more snow falls. Snowmobile season starts for some people when there is only two inches on the...

Thanks rxrider...It was not too much fun the last week though, as all that meltwater caused some issues with some of our fellow sledders. Oh, you sure need wet gear as well since the water splashes everywhere. RX-E

Our season finally ended last week, July 3rd as the ice started to break up. We came from the floe edge just last week...Will post pics from home later. RX-E

I like it better where it is, down south! LOL! Our sledding season is finally over as the sea ice melted and is currently breaking up. This is a very interesting thread, so it will be even more interesting once there has been an actual comparison on snow. RX-E

I have not tried that yet as we have no water to speak of, but I now have the fatty skis. A turbo would be awesome on the water I am sure... RX-E

I have done some stuff, such as change the swaybar, put on the longer links (75mm), lighter arms and the 2005 mountain skis. I will be ordering a lighter skid and a lighter hood this spring. I have found that except for some situations that this machine is quite good, but I use it to haul...

We have had some warm weather lately, but hope to be still out there in June. RX-E

That picture is cool! :rocks: That seat actually has storage I believe, the raised seat? RX-E :D

Oops, I used the GT weight...Thanks Crewchief. BTW; is that in converted pounds from kilograms? RX-E

:Rockon: Thanks Alaskanbowtie. I will include the note when I have sent my email. I am just waiting on the corrections to my taxes, as none of my girls were on there. It will result in about $10K tax return for the last five years, and then I can catch up on my other tax returns. I would love...

We have had a few trolls on here; especially when the Apex and then the Phazer rolled out. I forget how many, but a bunch of us were defending our turf, when this troll just kept pissing on the 4 strokes and Yamaha's in particular. It happens once in a while; but you are right about Snowest...

Geez, if this is still NA; it would be a great jump for my RX-1. I should be able to afford it since I have finally adjusted all of my tax returns and will be getting some extra funds this spring. I will send an email to Fundy Powersports this week. Thanks Alaskanbowtie. RX-E PS. I went...

I did not know that the Apex was less than 520 pounds...That is what was listed on the Canadian site for the weight of the Venture multi-purpose. RX-E :Rockon:

Thanks Pro116. I have seen these on one of my many parts catalogue. I will check one out this summer on my RX-1. RX-E
