  1. Her sled vs your sled

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    "He" takes off his helmet and it's a gorgeous blond girl! Come to find out, the girl wanted to try her new boyfriends sled out and he was riding hers! He said when they switched at La Macaza, he never saw her again. He couldn't believe our story about her and all she did was laugh! Sorry so long, but I wanted to try and paint a good picture of what might happen if your woman gets on a good machine! :girl_devil:

    :yahoo: Love it,

    Hubby and I passed a group once, we stop at next intersection and woman comes up to me to yell at me. She was taken aback when she realized I was a woman. HAHA....she's like how do you ride so fast, you scared me when you passed, I told her ride a real sled with mirrors and get rid of the Artic Cat.... :good:

    Hi Xeena,

    What year is the Vector and what size motor is it?

    Hubby’s sled is a Rev “X”. If you’re light, I can see it being a little stiff for you and the “X” may have a shorty windshield which means COLD!

    Stay with what you like.

    Thanks for your response Xeena.

    Jack :D

    I have a 2005 Vector. It has the 3 cylinder four stroke, 120hp.

    It's the steering of hubby’s sled that I hate (not the suspension) and the ride position it not the same. I'm use to leaning when needed to slide around a corner, not possible for me on a Rev chassis. The Rev suspension does rule when it gets bumpy. His windshield is plenty high, but the wind also comes around the cowl underneath the handle bars.

    I ride a Vector and hubby has a 600 SDI Rev X.

    If he’s riding full out in the twisty woods trails yes he has to wait for me a little, in fields or straights not so much. This is more about guts than the sled. (I don’t feel safe riding that fast with trees and turns.) He can keep up with 800’s and more in the woods with his 600, so it’s not all about engine size.

    I absolutely HATE his sled, I know I'm an exception as everyone says get the wife a Rev and she will keep up. Not me, I was raised on the old seating style and drive like a Grandma if I have to ride his. Plus I find the Rev very cold to ride, the wind blasts me.

    I love everything about my Vector no smell, gas mileage, nice color....all except the weight, if I were to get stuck without help I'd be there till the snow melted.

    To answer your question, yes I'd be upset if my sled was underpowered and I couldn't keep up in the fields, but even with my Vector I'm hardly ever hitting full throttle.

    Stayed at Motel Le Phare in Plessisville Thursday night, restaurant not open for breakfast, and unable to find the snowmobile trail from their parking lot. (long story)

    Drove to Manior Du Lac William, Friday morning. Nice place, ate breakfast buffet for $8.00. Reserved room for Friday night, expensive $225 for two people one night including breakfast and dinner. They have a gated coral for truck parking, and charge $20 per day if you don’t stay at the hotel. They also have a heated locked garage for sleds.

    Rode 235 miles Friday, very cold -22 Fahrenheit when we finally got going around 9:30. Snow coverage good, bumpy around St Marie as always, and a bit bumpy leaving hotel due to broken drag on side of trail. Drag was moved Friday night, but still bumpy.

    Saturday rode 210 miles, snow gets thin/icy around Victoriaville, wouldn’t start any farther south/west of there. Snowed all day, was fun blasting through drifts in fields, couldn’t see anything due to light/snow, but fun and great in the woods.

    The parks will stay open it would cost Quebec too much $$$$ all of the winter money that the sledders bring into the province from the USA, Ontario and the rest of the world.It is a Billon $ loss in revenu.

    Don't count on that. Enviro groups will stop an nothing until we are all walking as a mode of transport.
