new toys are home

[skidooboy]

here's a few pics of the 4 strokers we'll be riding this year. lynnes' anni sled (which wont stay red very long), here's a hint what it will look like soon.

big thanks to grapeape for comming up and helping with the 4 stroke sleds and being an all around good guy. it took him less time to pull the skid AND put on the yellow hyfax's, than it took me to replace two ski loops. (SERIOUSLY)

THE SKID WAS OUT WITH 4 BOLTS IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. LOTS EASIER REPLACING HYFAX WITH THE SKID OUT THAN PULLING AND PUSHING THROUGH A TRACK WINDOW.

Nice looking sleds Ski. I still like th eanniversary look. But I'm an old fart at heart. Maxdlx

Nice sleds! Even the mxz in the back ground. I got a question for ya though Skidooboy. I noticed you only have skidoo stuff in your garage, nothing Yamaha besides the two new sleds. Are you like a closet yamaha guy the doesn't want his neighbors to know? Or does skidoo really run threw your blood?? Just wondering what your story was, lol. Always have figured I'd ask!!

 

[skidooboy]

na, i have yamaha mx bikes converted to supermoto (250 and 450) plus the two new sleds. have had yamahas and doos in the stable since 97. these are my 5th and 6th yamaha sleds so far. most of my gear and swag is yamaha stuff. i have hay bale covers and huge yami banners in the garage attic. i have just opted to keep my name due to it being hard enough to keep track of new people let alone veterans that change their names all the time. everyone on all the internet forums... bike, sleds, hunting ect... all know me as skidooboy. been running that handle for almost 10 years now. no sense to change now. ski

My question is, where do you ride that you need the long tracks? Do you go out west a lot?

 

[Sno-Xr]

The Ski-Doo banners and Sled dont bother me to much, Its the frilly curtains in the garage that make me question your manhood!

Just kidding Erik(c)!! Awsome sleds !!
I cant wait to here your real world feed back on the Nytro. Myself and Wingnut opted out of the demo ride in Muni to ride 290 awsome miles up to Big Bay and back. Still got to hang with everyone in the garage and drink a few beers that night. Nothing beats a TY ride and the TY Gang!

Hahahaha, I chose to leave that one alone!!

Hey ski, that's basically what I figured, but just had to ask!

Good luck with the new sleds!

 

[grapeape]

I guess I will have to help ski out and get rid of the frilly curtains, lol As to where the riding occurs, Canada, out west and sometimes MI as well.

 

[edunn69]

I didn't even notice the frilly curtains, but I saw the Scott Russell, Muzzy Kawasaki picture! That adds a touch of class, you have the picture and I have the bike in my garage!

 

[skidooboy]

i have a zx7r in the stable as well. just not in the pics. all the stuff you have to notice in the garage and they always pick out the curtains. sheeeeeesh, tough crowd. LOL!

as far as why we need longtracks, we have migrated further and further from riding trails to basicly boondocking and exploring northern ontario and some u.p. riding when the snow gods bless us. we do go outwest from time to time as well. deep is where it is at for us. i love riding where most wont even try to go. ski

Those sure are some SEXY skis! Hee Hee.

Did you sell both pair?

 

[skidooboy]

nope just the red ones to you LOL! have another set with blue or yellow loops available
ski

 

[kinger]

Why did you go with the 40th anny edition only to change it yellow? I would have paid more for the anny JUST for the color LOL
