Are those used to get to the LFSs in the winter? Yes. Then they're approved :lol: :lol:

We don't get nearly enough snow here on the coast to even have a snowmobile dealership I think.

Aha great topic - You guys sound like you know what you are talking about ... :eek:

The facts:
I'm from Ireland = No snow
Want want want snowmobile.... though I have never been on one.
Needs to be a 2 up seat....

Any advice for a snow virgin? I have heard that liquid cooled is a must? Anything else you shopuld look out for?

Wow posts sorry I missed them ......forgot I posted here :rolleyes:
This was taken last weekend at Good Spirit Lake near Yorkton SK.
We rode from there to Duck Mountain Provincial Park in Manitoba. It was -10 and the trails were awesome. Even had a chance to stop and beat up on some "ditch pickles" :razz:. None of them want to go against the 1000's so we humiliated them with the 800's :mrgreen:

Irish liquid cooled is a must IME I would go with a Ski-Doo GSX or with a Yamaha Venture. Both of these are for comfort they are like a couch on ski, rear passenger handwarmers, air ride suspension etc.
I would put my money on the 'Doo. My picks would be



Ski-Doo
Yamaha
Polaris
Arctic Cat AKA "Ditch Pickles" too bad there isn't an ugly enuff green font color for this

AHA waiting to see a real Doo man who thought this is a summit. It is actually a 03 800x MXZ short track or as I call it the 1st ever REV summit :mrgreen:. I was a spring order, all you could get was black or yellow & orange. BUT 1 particular guy wanted black and yellow, so the orange stuff was transfered to a black one making black/orange which looks like the summits. :rolleyes:

[monza]

Make no mistake I saw that was not a summit I just was not going to bug you for having a MXZ :biggrin:
