So I am the proud owner of an 02 srx 700, an just wanted to share a story with you guys. So I have a couple buddies that I go riding with, one has a 2011 rush 800 he used to have a rx1,another guy rides a 09 f800, an the other guy rides a 09 crossfire 1000 and for a backup sled has a 2001 zl600. I havent rode yet this year, but those guys have went on 6 trips up north. Well between those 5rides my buddy with the crossfire has had a track blowout on his zl plus his clutch took a crap, and on his crossfire hes had his diamond drive just grenade on him along with his driveshaft. In just those repairs hes had to pay around $2grand. An this past weekend his clutch blew apart and mind you he had replaced his clutch just two winters ago. On there way to pick up the downed cat lol hes driving his zl and apparently it overheated and started on fire! His brother sent me a picture message and heres everyone standing on the trail watching the sled burn to a crisp. Sorry for the long story just wanted to share with you why I will never buy an shitty kitty, I warned him and his brother trying to get them to jump ship to yamaha but apparently there learning there lesson the hard way!

Being a "snowmobiler" means diferent things to different people. The "snowmobilers" that are glutton for punishment seem to like the cats!

Amen to that! My poor riding buddies just seem to think that these breakdowns are an everday thing for all riders, you would think they learned there lessons with there old 03 and 05 f7s and all the blown motors lol well maybe there eyes are open now!

Was that the burnt sled I saw on the trail right off Highway M28 in Wakefield, MI. This think was right down to the ground.

TrueBlue yes I believe this was off the trail by Wakefield I know they were up in that area riding that weekend lol My buddy who's sled burned down that also has that 09 crossfire 1000 says hes probably gonna sell it but doubt hes learned anything cause hes been looking at some z1 turbos.
