viper2 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I takt it 12,000 miles is alot for a ski-doo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 Is it 20k as in 20,000 miles or 20,000 kilometers? I think he means 20,000 miles. Which is special for Ski Doo, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vt_bluyamaha54 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I takt it 12,000 miles is alot for a ski-doo? ANY 2 stroke to go that far without top end (pistons/rings/cylinders) and/or bottom end (crank, bearings) is pretty much unheard of. Is it 20k as in 20,000 miles or 20,000 kilometers? I think he means 20,000 miles. Which is special for Ski Doo, for sure. Yes, even 20,000 km would also be unusual to reach without a failure.

iceman Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I agree 12k miles is lucky, 20k miles a miracle. For them 2 smokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momojohnny Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) HI MOMOJOHNNY, What's your Secret ? OK, I don't want to over whelm Junior at Club Scott . But I bought this apparently very luck charm off the wall from Junior wife @ 9K. Been riding with it ever since . Its not oil because Ive used every flavor youve ever seen on a shelf. Mostly regular Castrol. Motor always has had 147lb compression. I also add some isoflex grease to the crank seal last yr. Any engineers at Skidoo, feel free to send me a PM, if you want to see the internals for R+D......... :D P.S. Ive run this thing very hard......

I have an '02 Viper with over 16,000 miles on it never been apart also we have had 2 V-max 4's one 750 one 800 one had over 18,000 the other about 17,000 when we sold them never even had the heads off. Sorry on the KM when he said 20000k and 1k I assumed km. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momojohnny Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 (edited) Full discloser because we are all brothers I had a tail first also, I loved that furry little bugger. @ over 75MPH it flew perfectly horizontal The mice stole the fur off it :angry: and left the bone over the summer in the garage. Stupid me I left the teather on the sled. I almost cryed <_< I actually called Junior to mail me another one, but he was sold out! Lucky for me, I bought a paw as a back-up. Little furry thing cost only 10 bucks. But it costs 3k to go get em........ Dont let the mice get yours...... Jean- Guy see this business opportunity.

momojohnny Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 There a pic of Saguenay Bills odometer @ exactly 20 K somewhere on the site. I cant find it. If I remember correctly it was a 500ss (597) carbed model. I think he said he lost a piston along the way around 10k?? Probably jinxed myself, But Im in good company . Could it be a NH thing? Bill lives just up the road. :) Maybe Skidoo will let me do a lap at the Grand Prix in a couple of weeks.. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
