In Topic: Where is the best place to buy a KLIM Jacket?

12 March 2012 - 07:40 AM

Hi, A couple of questions I need help with.

First where is the best place to buy Klim products? Better than list. If I have to I will wait until the fall and buy one ant the Snow show in Novi, MI where they are always 10 - 20% off but I would like to just buy now at a competitve price.

Second I currently have a Klim Valdez Parka (for sale) and it is awesome, but it requires layering so I want to get an insulated Klim. I have narrowed it Down to either the Klmate or Keweenaw jacket. I really do not see much difference besides the price and slight style change. Any opinions would be great.

Thanks Rich

I looked at Klim but bought a MOTOR/FIST Redline from First Place Parts -they price-matched and it was just over $200.

BMP.  1-2 week turn around.

Chris Bondi at BONDI ENGINES in Ontario does a great muffler mod. with fast turn-around shipping - sounds throaty without the drone.

In Topic: Air suspension on GSX-SE

Anyone with any comments on the air suspension GSX ? I have never rode one or met anyone that has. Just curious if it's an improvement or simply something different or both

Just got back from 840 miles in Gaspe Que. on a 2012 GSX-Se 1200. Loved the ride/ handling/ performance BUT after- dark pulled on a stuck sled ( burned my belt ) did not take time to change it in the dark on the trail. The belt exploded and took-out the compressor air lines. Had to ride on the back-breaking bottom position over rough trails. BRP need to look at another place to locate that stuff or put some protection over it ! ! !

In Topic: GSX SE 1200 or 800???

08 February 2012 - 10:48 AM

my father is looking to purchase a new sled. hes been riding a 06 gsx 500ss for the past 6 years. he really likes the new gsx se on the xr platform. it looks kind of big if you ask me, seems alot of our riding is on narrow woods roads and trails. we dont have groomed trails around here. he had a look at the gsx le but thought it was too plane. anyone have a good suggestion for a good sled choice for him. and more importantly, which engine would you go with. 1200 4 stroke or 800 etec. there are no 600's available, that was the engine he wanted

Greetings, ( I hunt moose at Daniels Harbour ) have a GSX-se 1200 and love it. Added the 6.9 skis for deep snow ( only $20. more -dealer swap ).

Yeah, I'm pretty excited by it. Poor winter to buy but I got a pretty good price on it. Maybe I can get enough miles on it this year for break-in then drive normal next winter. I got the black one just like the picture above. After break-in, what would be the best oil to run in this thing? Are they burning much oil or can I get 1,000-2,000 miles before I need to top off?

I run Mobil 1 synthetic 0w40 get it on sale for 8 bucks and save some $$$.
