Do you ride snowmobiles?

[theKDX200rider]

I was just wondering if any of my fellow dirt riders rode snowmobiles also.

I had a '93 Formula Plus X for a couple of years. Lots of fun and very fast, but the amount of snow we've got here doesn't justify owning one so I sold it.

If I did live somewhere that had guaranteed snow 4 months a year I'd own one again for sure.

I don't personally, but all my friends and everyone in town that i know does. If you have to invest your money wisely than a snowmobile is not a good option, where i live there isn't always a good snow amount, and when there is you only get to enjoy it for a couple of months unlike snowmobiles dirt bikes can be ridden all summer,fall,spring, and with studded tires in the winter too.

:cool: YES 99 Arctic Cat ZR 600

sledding is a blast but yes no snow sucks but when there is it is a riot my whole family sleds 9 cats out back. and I got a cabin by mio so we ride quite often when there is snow. but im looking for new jugs right now went to go put pistons and rings in it and both cylinders are scratched through the chrome :bang: and at 200$ a jug its not going to be cheap but its all worth it when your riding

oh yea and falling doesn't hurt nearly as bad in the snow

I think it would be pretty cool to have a snowmobile suB forum if there is enough people that sled on here :)

Hoping to get some saddle time in when I head home (Michigan) over Christmas. I don't really get to ride anymore (living in Tucson), but I will always consider myself a snowmobiler. Made it through college working on sleds, used to ride to school/work as long as there was enough snow, my mom even has stories about me riding with her as young as 3 and hitting the kill switch all the time, driving her nuts.

My college buddies that never had to leave snow country started this -

I'm hoping to get a sled in the next couple years once I pay off my ISDE trip. We have some of the best sledding areas in the world up here so it'd be stupid for me to not have one!

I had a Skidoo MXZ700 Renegade ... probably the worst thing I ever threw money at. The maintenence is insane, and when it sits for 8 or more months out of the year ... forget it.

I have ridden but i do not own my own sled. I ushally ride a 2001 mountain cat 600 on the back side of power king.
