Was out riding on the few trails still open in the Buffalo area today. Ride went very well. I have the ski lift and handeling pretty well taken care of. Sled still darts...but I guess I have to live with it. Anyway......I get back to my house and look over the sled....I heard some kind of a clicking noise before I parked it . I put it up on a stand and hit the throttle....everything sounded OK. I jumped on the sled and went into the field across the road....thats when the shit hit the fan. I jumped the snowdrift on the side of the road and landed in the field ....the track locked up as I landed and I almost went over the handlebars!!!! Engine was still revving, but sled was not moving. I'm pretty sure I snapped the chain or secondary shaft!!!!! Coulld have spit FIRE at this point!!I shut the sled off and got on the phone with the dealer. Good thing is they sent someone over within 30 minutes to pick it up and take it to the dealer for repairs. Shocked the hell out of me!! The sled was about 30 yards off the road in about 3' of snow, and the guys dragged it to the road and loaded it up on their trailer just like that. Dealer said they would look at it ASAP....guessing tomorrow sometime. Not yet sure the exact damage....chain case was still in one piece....so I'm guessing the chain is the culprit. I'll update as I get info. :wacko: :blink:
