You'll just love this.... Same time period comparing Japanese Yen to Canadian dollars.Sled Dog said:Until you convert it to Canadian dollars then add pst in some provinces and gst in all.
February 19, 2003 rate is 78.36 or .012762 Yen to Canadian Dollar
November 10, 2004 rate is 89.31 or .011197 Yen to Canadian Dollar
All other things equal, (PST, GST and all that nonsense), it takes $8,774 Canadian dollars to buy the same amount of Japanese Yen as $10,000 bought in 2003.
You Canucks didn't realize your own economic strength eh? :shock:
I kind of pay attention to this stuff as my company has a factory in Oshawa Ontario as well as Milwaukee, WI :wink:

If my wife decides to start riding sleds again I'll get another one but at this point she's not keen on sledding.impalapower said:Steve, are you getting anything new?
Loves to root around in the mud on her Grizzly though, go figure. :roll:

I hate my broken down stock 04 seat, I think the thicker seat would way better for riding & much easier to stand if occasionally needed. Sounds like the best of both worlds. What am I missing, oh yeah the color.
It's funny how often ladies couldn't care less about the fact that a sled is a 150hp ditchbanger. Usually when purchasing it goes like this: I want that one because it's pretty! I'm serious! Not all of them, but more often than not.
I'm not picking on anyone here, just remembering the days at a dealership. It's your money, buy it for what makes you happy!

markgyver said:Man you guys bitch alot,this is a big step for yammi.ya got everything you asked for except turbo,and thats probly a good thing.I for one like the mountain sled and im buying one.
Yeah, I noticed that too. Sound like a bunch of little bitches..... What in hell is not to like? They're lighter, have more hp, better suspension, handle better, and a much more comfortable riding position. I can't decide if I want a GT or RTX

I think they are kinda cool. They do have a bulky front end though. A lot of refined improvements that put together add up to a nice sled. Did I see anything that will make me take a beating on my new 05 for one of them. NO for sure. Maybe in a few years when all their bugs are worked out and they have boosted the HP a little more I might bite. But this sport is getting way too expensive for the small amount of time you have to enjoy it. This year a prime example! Plus, I'm not a big fan of rider forward for long trips. Also if I add the $3000 dollar beating I would take on my 05 and the extra $1500 for one, it will buy me the supercharger I want for my current sled. [ How do you say kick-#*$&@!!!] Besides, I think my 05 Candy Apple Red RX1-ER is alot nicer looking. Just my .02...well maybe a nickel's worth.

We build railroad machinery, the following picture is the flagship product from our Oshawa plant clearing snow on the Quebec Cartier Mining railroad. The machine sells for approximately $400,000 Canadian.
SledderSteve, have you driven one of these?

The electronic Ohlins. Has anyone tried one of these yet? Any problems with the electonic part?
