First Blood

OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess I got to get another arm over to the powder coater again.



Guardsman today about 15 mins into the ride hit a rock just off the side of the trail. I think I'm going to wait for a base before I go out again. It's just so hard not to get out and ride when the white stuff falls.

I don't think you will be the only one, just enough to be tempting. Should be plenty of parts on Ksl.com.

That's why I was actually kind of glad my sled wasn't ready to ride this week.

 

[aktreekiller]

bummer

sorry to hear that. where did you get those vents?

 

[boxster7614]

I'm still breaking in the motor in this sled...... looks like its not the only thing getting broken in. I have another arm in the garage but its red so I'm going to run it over tommorow to get it blasted and coated.


Thoses are mountain fit hoods vents.

you wouldn't feel that way if you would have went with us today.

Yeah right.

Lucky dudes! Just me being jealous. All I did with snow today was scrape it off our driveway.

Glad to hear someone found some snow to play in.


Sorry about the broken arm. Bummer!!!

Those look like the Edge vent kit from Tri-City Performance. I had them on my Edge.

That's exactly what I was thinking when I was just checking out the pics. Oh well, there's always next week.

just heard a buddy took his new impulse nytro down to fairveiw today for his first ride ever on it and got 200 ft from the parking lot and took out his bulk head. Said he did a double front flip. He's 6'6 and 280 lbs.

OUCH......sucks for sure. Hope he had a policy under it.

 

[boxster7614]

It's like you know you're going to hit something but we still go out and try it anyways.....I think I might need an intervention......mabe not


I guess if I had to hit something the trailing arm is an easy fix compared to if I would of been a foot over and taken out the bulkhead. Just glad I was able to ride it back to the trailer.

That's really sad. A skid plate goes a long ways. It's saved my arse at least a half dozen times.

Holy Cow...that would hurt,wallet and body ! .......Calvin and I do a lot of horseback riding at fairview through the summer. Its truly amazing how the terrain changes with a good snow base.

peace-
