Ill bet ya a dollar you wont post how unhappy you are and wish you could sell it but the good deal you got wasnt such a good deal for a 2 year old sled and its only worth 6500.00 trade for a yamaha which you should have bought... I have to take a breather!

Good luck. I loved my ZRs. My ZR 900 was an awesome machine. None of Yamaha's handled the trail like it could. I honestly miss it.

Hey I see you owned a 69 john deere? No such sled, 72 was the first year for jd sleds. Just to let you know..........

RMK

not me...going to go with poo..looking at RMK 162..PRO...tried that and a cat..getting a crazy deal from my yam dealer..going to promote both my S.C. yam and the stinky..they are both great sleds..in different situations..so my excuse is, my son needs one.my yam is great in the open,but when its tight..I like the way the pooo falls over on its side,then it snaps back to the other side..just dont have the weight to do this on my yammie..but the boost in open trees. .is still better than the stinky... yammies are the best trail sleds..cost a ton to turn them into mountain sleds that will beat the stinkys..

 

[MT.man]

I have been thinking about a F8 as I dont think you can beat the fun factor it has. That being said I cant see trying to get 4 or 5 seasons (15,000 miles) out of a arctic cat. But back in the days that I could buy a new sled every other year I would seriously consider one.

 

[quebecmoutainrider]

MT.man I agree you will not get 15000..out of those sleds..But the one I want is a mountain sled..if you ride in the mountains and burn more than a tank a day..without boost..you are not really ridding off trail..boondocking and climbing and being stupid takes a ton of energy..thats why we all take turns..usually..and because of that,we burn less gas and millage than trail sleds..So on trails a 2-smoke puts on millage too fast.thats why yammie trail sleds are the best..but in the mountains it could be 3-6 years before you put on the same as trail sleds do in a year ( BUT STILL RIDE AS MANY DAYS )..just my point for 2-smoke mountain sleds.I will always love my yammie. .but if you can have both worlds then why not..
