Here is the first part of a GoPro video I took of my brother and I out riding here in AK and heading up a mountain. He bought my '05 Vector that I modified with a 136 M-10, 1.5" track, Boss hi-rise seat, Wild Child rider forward steering post, GYT-R front shocks, stripped down body work and a White Knuckle Exhaust. I still like that sled and plan to upload the second half of the video to Youtube where I ride it again for the first time in almost 2 years. This is one of the types of riding I like best. Grab your favorite beverage, sit back and enjoy some Alaskan scenery. The start of this trail is a 10 minute ride away from my house.

I finally uploaded the second half of the video to Youtube. I'm teaching myself how to edit videos on my computer so I was able to reduce the length and show the more interesting segments. The video gives you a good idea of the scenery and riding terrain we have here in Alaska. It's currently snowing outside right now, we are supposed to get another 4-8" of snow today. :jump:

The Vector in the video is my old sled I sold to my brother. I had it set up quite nicely and still enjoy riding it when we switch off. I'd not ridden it since last winter and the first thing I noticed was how smooth and vibration free the motor was. My RMK vibrates pretty bad at idle and before engagement. It smooths right out at the higher rpms. The Vector is smooth at all rpms.
