I'm not much of a mechanic, I seem to do more harm than good, but if you can't find the spark plugs, you should pony up the cash and pay a good mechanic (dealer, friend, friend of a friend, or even someone from this site) to help you or save your sled for you. For me, the cash is well spent and...

25 years of riding Yamahas and only been towed once when a Jack Shaft broke. Can't count the number of times I've towed others.

All true, that's why we ride blue. . .

If the weather is clear I suggest a trip to Silver City and up to Lake of the Clouds. It is a scenic look out over a lake and valley that is worth the trip. Check before leaving, snow is sometimes in short supply along the coast, and watch your gas, it is always a question if there is an...

Also - Anyone riding on Gogibic - be careful! There are reports of two spots of open water and an ice heave just north of Fish Tails (the old Fisheremans Resort). Check with the locals before heading out!

Leaving Wednesday for the Root Cellar. $ 200.00 deposit refundable only if the trails are "unridable" - and they are the judges. Even if we've got to trailer to Houghton, it'll be better than going to work! Please keep the reports coming.

With all the money I'm saving not riding this year, (one cancelled trip and another not looking very promising), I will have more cash to put on the HID's and Yamaheaters I've wanted. The wife is going to Ho Chunk (casino) this weekend and just asked for some gambling money. There goes the...

"Taking new model development as an example, until now the accepted norm has been: "the cost of a new model = the cost of the current model + the cost of the newly added features that raise its value," This is why new sleds cost $ 15 K and are priced beyond most riders. It's about time they...

Read 5 pages of suggestions until I found someone who shares my personal favorite. Rode this once when they had groomed one-way trails with a 3-foot high divider in the center. Oh yea, there was also 18 inches of fresh powder on each side. It was so much fun we gassed up at Silver City and...

Pretty much all has been covered, but being the owner of an 07 Attak GT myself I just have to chime in. See the list of things I have done to mine and know that every one of the upgrades made a good sled better. The first thing I did was pull the skid and check for cracks. If you look and...

Below is from the Michigan DNR: MICHIGAN SNOWMOBILE FATALITY SUMMARY 2010/2011 SEASON: LOWEST SNOWMOBILE FATALITY COUNT IN LAST 20 YEARS. Making the trails less safe is a mystery to me

I think it would be great if we could search for members by zip code or location. It would be a great way to find people to ride with who have similar interests.

Because putting it back in by yourself is a royal pain!!!

I went with Bruce at Pioneer last summer, and this last winter was the best riding (in a short period of time) that I can remember. I weigh in at 230 dressed, and Bruce recommended the new spring along with the re-valve. Love my GT!

I've been riding in the UP for over 20 years and I have learned that the more chevrons preceeding a corner, the sharper the corner will be, and I can slow down appropriately. Now all corners will be marked the same, or not at all. The theory is that because I won't be able to tell the really...

Yamaha may be TEAM BLUE, but it will always be a RED sled for me.

Take it back to the dealer and let them troubleshoot and fix it. If they are stand up folks they will do it.

Was riding with a friend in the UP this last winter when we noticed, while parked at a gas station, that the nut was missing and the bold half way out. Seems to be an issue....

Had mine done by Bruce at Pioneer. No issues.

For those of us without heated garages, greasing waits until a warm day in spring, or summer.
