Sled OEMs analogy in "Redneck Terms"

Thread Rating
5.00 star(s)
Ridden a lot of sleds in my day, some cougars and spitfires, admired some eskimos but never rode one. Held one's handlebars once. I've been taken to mach Z and prowled. Still to this day I fiddle around with a lot of sleds and take one for a ride every so often, but there is this old yamaha at home that gives me the greatest pleasure so far. I ride it as much as I can unless it starts leaking. Then I'll climb right off and ride another for a few days. Once the leak stops I climb back on the old yamaha for a while and enjoy that same old thrill I got the first time I rode it.

funny for sure.......but i have to disagree with some of the descriptions.......sure the "Poo" girl had that scene at the country club. but then she got sober and hit some aerobics classes......firmed up and lost those few extra pounds. VEERRY nice ride now, and she ALWAYS wants to go out....and will hang in with you till the end of the night.
the "Doo" girl looks good across the room (although not too my liking), but once you get a chance to get on her, you find all the "plastic" in her chassis feels awkward and unnatural....worst of all, she wants to go home just when things start getting fun!! so you end up wearing the "mopey" face as you look back over your shoulder at your buddies as you drag her sorry arse home!
 
Thats the best thread I've read in a long time. Original, funny and very true. There's exceptions to every rule but for the majority of things you nailed it.


As for myself I must admit falling for the sexy lines of the high maintenance Doo after going thru some "issues" with my highschool sweetheart Poo. Thankfully, after a bad tabloid breakup with Doo, and the ensuing therapy sessions to straighten out my head - Poo has shown me that long term happiness is the better way to go and we are back on track. Now I appreciate the mild twists and turns of my relationship with Poo and cherish some of her quirks for I know that I have a friend for life.

All sled manufactuers have there own idenity. Allot like women (or men) do. So in order to help those newbies decide on which brand to buy (date/marry) i would purpose the buying decision similar to dating the special gal or dude.




The following analogy explains the sled dating/buying process:

Yamaha: It is like the girl your mom or dad wanted you to date. safe reliable and has allot qualities of refinement. I little on the heavy side....but still attractive. It's the safe choice. Styles hardly change.The girl next door you could say.

Polaris: It's the girl that has been beaten out recently by its cuter girlfriend (ski-Doo) the last little while but still has potential. She had the "bad " showing a few years back at the country club (aka the 900 rmk) and is still recovering from that. The scars are there. She's the kind of girl who has a history and some "issues" but is still worth a swing at. And MAY have some serious upside in the future. She could be a physcho hose beast or could be Cindy Crawford in 2010....

Arctic cat: You don't know what you'll get. It very attractive at times (lightwieght) and sometimes really suprises you. Other times she goes into hibernation for awhile and it's a dud. You could say she has some mental issues. But when good it's good. She may need a shrink type of deal...

Ski-Doo: The high maintence one! She is beautiful, performs well but is pricy and if not treated right will flat just won't work. When it does work....well it's the best there is. But when it is not its the worst thing you can imagine. High maintence woman. Has a short fuse, snobby, and yet you love it!


Honda....could be the best out of all the above. but the make-up hasn't come off yet.

redline....mysteriously appeared in some "magazine" a dissappeared. Like a child hollywood star. Allot of promise and then...BANG! Off the tracks on on drugs.



You have started a great post that everyone can relate to with your witty humor!

Most of the analogy's are close but Polaris didn't just have a bad showing at the country club. Closer would be to name her Brittney Spears, She went from the Ride that everybody wanted to the fat crazy lady that you just couldn't keep the rumors of her demise from becoming front page news. She became so overweight and obnoxious that even with your memories of how great she was in the past, you had to come to your senses and leave her before she ruined you. Now she has cleaned herself up, lost the weight, and put some new red lipstick on. She is hanging out with the group again and begging for you to come back and give her another chance......Trying to get you away from the Supermodel you are keeping company with. It is O so tempting because the supermodel has started to show signs of instability with her inner workings, but you are torn, she still has the most attractive frame and great jugs, if you could just get her to the right surgeon you wouldn't have to leave her and go back to Brittney.....ohh what to do??? :confused:
 
Snowbyrd... nicely done.

Ok, my shot at turning this around. I'm no McDunna............ :rolleyes:

Yamaha - Older wiser, sugar daddy that has the potential to take you to places you've never been before. Stable, supportive and yet will allow you to change him to be more fun for you.

Ski Doo - Possibly the metro sexual one of the group. Well manicured trim. Watches it's weight. Generally seen only with "it's" kind. Can be tempermental if things aren't done his way.

Polaris - It's that skinny white boy that can dance his butt off, but only to certain songs and you don't know for how long. Has a certain confidence that even if you go ride something else he thinks you'll more than likely want to come back to him.

Arctic Cat - the quiet silent big brother type. This one just sits back and takes all the other's left overs once they've been burned/ hurt. This one doesn't care where he's getting it, as long as he's getting some.
 
Everyone has come up with great stuff.

Here's another one,
Yamaha, The big boned girl that has a real pretty face, expensive well tailored clothes, large stable feet, and a great personality. She is very hard to straddle, has short legs that get stuck a lot, and gets winded easily. The proven way to unleash this freak, is to make her lighter on her feet, take her on an extended shopping spree for accessories, and get her to gulp down more.......um.....
Air!:eek:
 
Hmmmm.......heads and pipe for the sled or a boob job for the wife. Either way, they aren't really for me. They're just to give the recipient more confidence when out in public. I personally abhor fast sleds and great tits, but you know me....always the giver.
 
What about aftermarket companies ... SLP, Boondocker, Speedwerx, BDX, D&D, etc.. and clothing mfg. Klim, Reima, Activa, etc..

Keep it going .. this is funny s*it!

I took the Yamaha girlfriend in the shop for a little slap and tickle and surgery. She cleaned up real nice and even lost a few pounds (wish I could say the same for myself, LOL) She came out with longer legs and obviously used the hairdryer. Best of all.....the wife doesn't mind when I ride her:D
 
Here's my shot.

Yamaha-Refinement, reliability and classic timeless beauty. Loyalty and undying devotion all wrapped up in one package. You can't go wrong.

Arctic Cat -She's a whore and will let anybody ride her and generally gives them what they want- a good hard fast ride. She prefers that you don't call her in the morning because now your buddy is riding her because you said that you didn't care. But now your feelings are hurt.


Skidoo- She's your sister's totally hot friend who is dating the captain of the football team. She looks great on the dance floor and can dance her a$$ off and you want to ride her hard- real hard. Anytime you personally run into her, she is insanely unstable or you can hear her crying in the bathroom, or she just wants you to give her a tow beause she broke down along way from home.

Polaris- She's the "go to gal" on Saturday night when you don't have the cash to take out the football captains ride who is crying in the bathroom because she suspects the captain is out riding an Arctic Cat. She's alot of fun and is cute, but you know what you really want.

I am now bracing for the kidney punches, Be kind.
