OOOOOPS....did i say broke? I meant awesome. :bounce:


Took my 13 out yesterday for the first time and couldnt be happier.
I put 56 miles on and 18 of them were towing my buddy and his 08 rmk back to the truck, which obviously put a pretty good load on the shaft and belt and it took it like a champ. Driveshaft and belt drive both look perfect still.

This sled is so awesome compared to my 08 that i rode last year. It takes literally 1/4 the effort to do the same manuevers. At first i tried to ride it like i did my old sleds and i was just tipping it over on its side completely. Also areas i would have been wfo last year i can just feather through at less than half throttle. Its going to be a great season.

Anyway, enough with the talk here are a few pics.

It appears that you just voided your warranty by putting a load on your rear tunnel that it was not warranteed for. Mmmm.

Good Joke ,Ewe just Karma,d yourself. Yours will break next ride
 
Its silly, or stupid when we are glad our brand new sleds make it 56 miles with out an issue...isn't it.
But yet you will have to deal with that "when will it break" superstition hanging over you for a while..

;)

BTW, that color scheme looks amazing... I'd hate to have to keep track of you thru the trees though. :P

I get what you are saying...im not glad about it...and honestly im not worried about mine breaking...i thought i would just throw out a little positive because all you read in the pro section is negative.

thanks i think it turned out good...ive also got a set of white side panels and a diamond s mesh hood also...not going to run the mesh hood until my lead dog helmet light comes in.
 
40 miles on mine runnin strong. Although lost it on moon mountain above the trees. Lucked out, it stopped on a 4" tree at the bottom. The only damage is a small dent in the right A arm. This sled flat out rips!
