the biggest thing that im concerned is what if you go camp out in the deep wood without electricity and its -30'c outside and you try to start the monster engine ? i know they have a block heater but in the woods what do you do ? imagine all the stiff oil in the base because its to cold and you cant pull on the cord to get it to warm up http://www.snowmobileworld.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif

Dan R. the Yammy has a dry sump which means the oil dosen't sit in the crankcase like a car,similar to 400ex honda atv.

exactly and the other thing is now a-days the advancement of synthetic oils there almost like water and should not be a problem.

Amsoil synthetic for that beast ....the rx1 is a great sled with its motorcycle engine but the doo rev has the motorcycle chassis and over 100 pounds lighter! *so both of these sleds have left the others in the dust. and those naw sayers too
