Hey all, looking for some insight to which sled would be right for me because I can’t make the decision. I am deciding between a freeride or backcountry xrs. I mostly ride flatlands but the only trail riding I do is to get out to spots. However I make trips out west and would rather take my own...

Hi all, so here's the situation: I have a 2013 Backcountry X with the 800 Etec motor. It's an XS chassis. In March 2022 I blew up the motor and as one that's mechanically inclined would do, replaced the motor. I dropped in a CVTech short block, cleaned EVERYTHING more then once and reassembled...

so My sled is a 2012 skidoo renegade backcountry 600 etec and i was riding tonight and my temperature light kept coming on i tried tossing snow on the tunnel and riding in deep snow to cool it down sometimes it’d go off for a bit but would always come back on a couple minutes later and one time...

Hey guys! So recently my neighbor gave me a 1985 Ski-doo Tundra, his family has a ton of new sleds and stuff and I've helped him with projects so he just gave it to me which is super cool. This is the first sled I've ever owned or even driven (I'm a dirt bike guy) so obviously, I'm learning...

Per title. Just made an appointment, but this will be the 3rd time replacing both mechanisms. I'd say this is getting ridiculous, but we're already well beyond that. Does anyone have any insights? By the by, if you happen to be in western NL and see someone clutch starting a Backcountry...

Sold my 17 summit x 850 - wanted something in 146". Options are limited this year as all the dealers in my area are sold out. Found a backcountry 146 so I bought it but it only has a 1.6" track. I would have preferred the backcountry x or xrs that have an optional 2" track. I know there are...

Hey everyone. Just picked up a 22' BC with the 1.6" Cobra, and was wondering what people do for studding it. Riding will be mostly U.P. and Northern WI, with any trail riding taking place in Northern WI. I've never owned this track, but does it need to be studded for trail riding? Concerned...

Just got a phone call from the shop saying my sled was ready for p/u. 2nd SHOT capacitor in 2 years. They couldn't replicate the recoil starter failing to engage and said that the vibration was 'normal'. On the last ride of the season, I simply couldn't make it home. The pain was too much. So I...

I was just wondering if anyone had a problem with the rear shocks adjustment knob hitting the track of the suspension if it bottomed out. Its hard to tell if its even possible for it to hit the track. My knob and and bolt broke off. The valve is still in place but now there is no way of putting...

Has anyone installed the knee pad door on their sled with the skidoo knee pads? Please post photos and reviews. Thanks

Does anyone own a 2020 backcountry x package in sunburst yellow that can message me their vin number? I am trying to order the white front bumper decal that says backcountry in black but none of the dealers including skidoo themselves is able to get the part number for it without a vin number. I...

I was at the Toronto Snowmobile Show and happen to see a set of Sly Dog 8"Powder Hound Ski's. Having never seen them before, I thought they were interesting. The 8" ski and more flotation concept seemed to make a lot of sense for backcountry riding. Not thinking of a lot of cons, I was tempted...

Who has ordered a 2020 Backcountry XRS 154 w/ 2 1/2" track. What accessories are you planning with your $500 Free Doo Accessories? Dupont Sliders Grab Handle - ridiculous that this is now an accessory after having it on my 146! Low Windshield LinQ Slim Waterproof Bag Rail Ice Scratchers...

Has anyone successfully fit a new chassis G4 146" in a 10" Triton enclosed trailer? The whole cover tilts up. It is a 2000 model year trailer, the clamshell is the same shape that they use on their trailers today. I know it would be really tight, but I'm just wondering if I can fit one in there...

2015 Renegade BC 800 etec. Stock 137" 1.75" track Riding hard the last couple of days. Yesterday I noticed I was pulling up to 8400 rpm, stopped and adjusted clickers back to 2. Noticed it was running off after the change. Juiced her and she spun up to over 8600 rpm, then was bogging after...

Hello All, I AM A NEW DOO AND DOOTALK GUY. Ok thats out of the way. I rode my first sled 35-ish years ago and Im 43. This is my first Ski-Doo and Ive always had Cats ... ok that also out of the way. Just took delivery of a 2019 Backcountry 850 and it came with the exact track I wanted which is...

How many miles? Likes/dislikes? Pics..?

Hi, I just got back into snowmobiling after a 12 year break. I purchased a 2014 Backcountry because I thought it was a good deal. Now I'm having regrets, because I feel I should have held out for trail sled. My BC has the stock 1.75" track, and I intend to stud it for WI trails. I think I...
