Had a trip up in Killarney this weekend, the wife and I arrived at the Sportsman inn we walk in the front door and to be honest to you it was a dump. One side of the building was peeling off and a coat of new paint would do wonders. I knew the wife would not sleep there. We unload the sleds and hers fires right up. My sled on the other hand, I must have tried to pull it over 50 times. I checked for spark yep all was good new plugs. I figured a fuel line was frozen so the owner of the inn got me a hairdryer and blanket after about 1 hour the line defrosted and off we went. About 1 hour down the trail we ran into a couple of club member busting up a beaver dam. They said we could go fore another 60km then we should turn around, as the lake was just no safe yet. We did all we could and returned to the in at 5:00pm we just decided to pay for the one night and leave. We never even used the room except to change but that’s the breaks. We drive to the inn-laws in Innisfil and decided that we would drop at the Barrie snowmobile clubhouse the next day and head to Orillia. The trails were great we had a blast we were about 20km from Orillia when we pulled over to read a sign and take a break. I try to start my sled and the recoil broke, now im pissed at my piece of shat sled. I got it going with the clip on the clutch and pull rope. Ride none stop back to my truck load it up and head to St Onge. I traded it in and bout and 06 MXZ 800 HO power tech. I pick it up next weekend. I had it with my 02mxz 800 in the short time I had it and the 500km I put on it was nothing but trouble. Still all in all it was good weekend. On my was back to my truck we came across a poor sole that managed to get stuck in a swamp I managed to pull him out so all in all it was good weekend and I never have to sit on piece of shat again.

That's too bad to hear! Maybe you shoulda gone Yamaha! :D
I'm just Kidding, Doo makes a great sled! I just returned from a trip up north (District 10) and virtually EVERY sled I saw on the trails was a Doo! I think I only saw one or two of the New Yami's out there. Not sure what years all those Ski-Doo's were... they all look the same to me now.
