It's not the amount of miles ridden, it is the quality of the ride. I have a pale, 697 miles, with a combined milage of over 2,000 on the sleds. Not the most amount of miles, but they sure were great. Awsome snow, great area, can't wait to go back. Have a great ride. Al
 
I am not a fisherman, my Dad was. What kind of fish are those? Perch??? I remember my dad ice fishing every chance he could. I on the other hand, seemed to like to harrass the fisherman, with the sleds and 4 wheelers. My Dad always defended me though. lol. Al
 
Those fish are Pickerel or also called Walleye...the best eating fish in my opinion.
I tend to be a Pickerel snob...everything else we catch, Northern Pike, Perch, Musky,Bass, ect all goes back in the lake.

The Dog is definately special.

I have Bender tripples on both the ported 1999 SXs since the season after I bought them new, 10+ years and 1000s of miles with no pipe or engine failure repairs...I really like these pipes!

I used to sucessfully Drag Race both these SXs before I long traveled them, added reverse, and stretched them to 144". These two SXs are absolutely "MayTag" reliable and a pleasure to ride!

The sleds are conservatively jetted now and when trail riding will get about 12+ miles to the US gallon...alot less though if you are wide open or breaking trail alot.

We live out in the sticks and he has been mistaken for a Black Bear a few times so he usually is wearing a bright red or royal blue bandana so someone doesn't decide to shoot him!

Thanks for the input, I have ridden a Bender piped sled and didn't think it was that noisy either which is surprising for glasspack style silencers!

He doesn't like any of the sleds very much but I quess it would be the VMAX4 because when we go fishing he sometimes rides in a sleigh behind it and my Wife and most importantly the food are on the VMAX4!
