Buying a Cheap Used Snowmobile

November 22, 2021 by Jim Tucker

1997 Yamaha Venture snowmobile

New sleds can be expensive, which made me wonder if buying a cheap used snowmobile is a solid alternative. Could an older snowmobile really deliver trail riding bliss on the cheap? The only way to figure it out was to play to my strength and look for a newer vintage sled to refurbish. Heck, I love to bring things back to life, so why not?

Greasing upgraded Snowmobile Suspension With Grease Fittings Zerks

If you want to increase performance and longevity, upgrade your snowmobile suspension with grease fittings, also known as Zerks.

Summer Snowmobile Storage

Do you have a summer snowmobile storage regiment? Spring is officially here and many of you have parked the snowmobile until next season or will be soon. Some sledders have a summer snowmobile storage ritual that borders on a religious experience while others simply leave the sled in the very spot they last hit the kill switch, maybe the front yard.

Towing Capacity and Maximum Trailer Weight

January 24, 2018 by Dan Gould

Towing Capacity and Maximum Trailer Weight

For years I had a two-place enclosed snowmobile trailer and never gave much thought to towing capacity and maximum trailer weight. As much as I enjoyed the nimbleness of a compact trailer, my teenage boys informed me that I should spend more of my hard-earned cash on a nice four-place trailer. That way I could haul their snowmobiles, too. Winter arrived with a few small storms followed by a … [Read more...] about Towing Capacity and Maximum Trailer Weight
