your really into the vintage sleds eh?

The rear skids are out of BOTH my F7 and my Dad's T-Cat ..... and my street had enough snow to take a rip up this morning!!!

..... although, I do have my buddy's 'Doo in my garage too ........................................

Unfortunately, the parts (springs and a wheel) aren't in for mine 'til tomorrow or Tuesday, and my Dad has the front skid shock apart for rebuilding/re-charging ... again, hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday we'll get it together .

just got the new track and 440 shocks done on my sled still a few things left. the wifes sled is completely pulled apart for powder coating and a complete colour change lol

That's putting it mildly....

I'm no where near ready.

My ZR9's track just came in on Friday and she is still sitting tore down to the bulkhead and the XC/SP is awaiting the track off of the ZR.

Then the studs have to go in and then put it all back together again.

Then the PV cables will be replaced and the valves on the XC/SP cleaned.

Clutches still need a quick once over.

Been busy putting in trail and as everyone can imagine there is a severe shortage of volunteers helping so those of us doing the work are not getting our sleds done.

It will be sad when the trails are ready and everyone is riding except those who put them in.

Waiting to get my rear shock back from Pioneer Performance. I had it sent down a few weeks ago to get revalved. Still trying to decide if I should put studs on the new Apex RTX, though.

Not ready either, waiting for my pipe to return from BMP and my clutching components from SLP, hopefully in another week or so, however I have to get some updates done on the sled soon too. Was caught off guard a little with this wonderful weather.

My engine is sitting on the bench in the garage, hopefully this week I will get it in and be ready for the weekend.

My sled is still sitting in the same place I left it in April! Ah, no, not ready one little bit.
But on a plus side... I went over the entire sled in the spring, so it sould be an easy prep.

Sled is down in the shop still hopefully getting it back this week. Im thinking friday then a nice long weekend of riding. Heading north any one been up around Haliburton for a ride yet?

What all ya doing to the 9er?

Finally got my edge skid reassembled last night, put the new hyfax on so its ready to go, this afternoon gonna work on removing the track hopefully have that out by later tonight then all im waiting on is track and studs, which i still have to order as i havent made up mind on stud size i wanna run....

Glad to see im not the only one not ready hahah

I take it down every year and clean and detail under the hood. Fix and adjust anything that I see that needs it.

So far I found the lower coolant drain hose was rubbing on the steering so I changed that and added some more convoluted tubing to protect the lower hoses. I was changing the coolant anyways so it was no problem.

I took my seat and tank assembly off and had it modded with about 2.5 inches of additional height added in with a denser foam and a new carbon fiber top with more grip. I also had an orange stripe added to the side. It is extended up to the tank with a slight rise at the front.

I ordered a new track, 1.25 ripsaw and 144 1.325 gold diggers. They have arrived and if all goes well I'll start that tonight. While it is out I'll go over the skid and touch up the paint and check the bearings and slides. Shocks are good to go already.

I also ordered a new set of C&A razors from Dan with 7.5 shapers. They should work great. They just arrived this morning. I'll unpack them after diner and have a look.

Yet to get new handgaurds and a 6" bar riser to replace the 4" due to the seat height increase.

I had one PV cable with a slight fray that I'm replacing. I have the cable and the valves are done already to go, just need to put it on.

Carbs are still boxed and in storage so they just need to be installed.

Lastly I will go over the clutching and make sure everything is good to go. It is all new late last year so just a look over, reassembly and scuff are in order.

Then it is on to the poo.
