Just throwing out this for some help from all you experts.
I am new to the sledding world. Picked up a 2010 Artic Cat M8 SnoPro. I have put on about a 1000 miles on it already this year. Yesterday on the way out I blew three rollers out of my secondary clutch. Got home, tore down the clutch and the helix is beat to heck where the roller pins rubbed on the helix. The bearing is also scared pretty bad. Also the bottom of the shaft where the sheaves sllip over onto the shaft are are pitted pretty good. So the questions is, by the time I order all the parts and replace them is it worth just buying a new one? I plan on keeping this sled for awhile until I feel comfortable on sleds. What clutch would you recommend? I ride primarily in Island Park, Idaho anywhere from 5000 to 9000 feet. Or, is there any used ones out there for sale?
Thanks all.
