Should have enough snow to start running the fleet by next week. Lots of snow in the forecast starting tonight. Got my maintenance done on the 4 stroke utility sleds (Skandic SWT and Tundra Sport), next up is the 9R and Summit turbo. Usually run until mid May when the snow finally rots away. Can’t wait to ride once again.

Anyone have considerations when it comes to these machines? 10 and 11 year olds are currently rolling around on old Tundra's but spending a lot of time fixing them and trying to get parts. We run trails and boondock in interior AK.

Like the idea of the 550 fan with limiters on the EVO, which you can upgrade later. These kids are still pretty young.

Like the Bearcat as that is what I ride and it has a better windshield. We don't extreme mountain ride but do haul trailers and camps, although this sled wouldn't be expected to haul much.

Curious about anything really, I know very little about these lighter duty sleds other than having a conversation with a salesperson at each store.

Just bought a 2005 Yamaha venture and I noticed this exposed nipple on top of the valve cover. There is also a black cover on the nipple of one of the carbs. I am wondering if a hose is supposed to connect these two to act as a breather?
