Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Someone really reported this thread? Who has time to click the report button?

Probably one of my posts too.

 

somebody got their feelers hurt. no big deal. that's why some of the rules exist I'm sure. there are always a couple of sensitive people everywhere.

 

I just bought a Snowmobile last week. 05 Ski Doo Summit 800 HO 144 track. Still trying to get the hang of the turning.

 

Lessgo!

Just curious...buying something like this as first time should be fine right?

 

I grew up in Douglas County, super nice area. If you're retiring you could check out the areas like Topaz Lake, Tonopah, Dayton. Although the last time I went through Dayton it was three times the size it was in 2008. Who knows how long Nevada is going to be a free state, I heard it went Communist in the last election

 

I'm not really a polaris person but... I think while that chassis has been improved upon a ton, they're not bad and theres a lot of them out there. The 151 is a good length track for our riding. I don't know a lot about that 800 but I've not heard a lot of good things. Might do some researching. Not sure how familiar you are with two strokes? Be nice if it had lower miles.

I think this chassis is a lot better and I've heard good things about the 700 dragons. Nice 155 track. Its more expensive but seems like a good deal, I think.

 

Whereas the 900 was not so good and maybe thats why its much cheaper.

Same seller incidentally

 

Good idea. I'm just trying to nkt spend more than 2k. Looking to beat it up and learn how to fix it before I get a nicer one.i also haven't heard good things about the 900

 

Fair enough. One thing I'll say about sleds is they're all pieces of shit and they're all money pits. So know that now. They're also one of the most fun times you can have, IMO.

I'd probably try to find an older RMK 700 I think... Look more reliable from what I've seen.

 

I also an s2000 that is also a huge money pit. I'm used to shitty hobbies

 

Saw a nicely built black DCSB on US-50 coming over from Lake Tahoe towards Carson City while I was on vaca last weekend, girlfriend was taking a time lapse of the drive from our rental on my phone, caught a quick glimpse! She said a woman was driving it. Cool story right?

 

@RelentlessFab yall staying dry this time? News says flooding in your area in sparks.

 

Yeah we're still dry, looks like it crested just a tad below the flood last month(as long as it doesnt crest higher again tonight again or something). At the shop now despite the 'road closures' so I'll be monitoring water levels all day and might throw the sand bags back in front of the doors before leaving tonight just as a precautionary measure. Plan to be back at the shop tomorrow working on @Mademan925 truck too so we'll be keeping an eye on things til the warning is over.

 

Anyone know anyone interested in steps?
Trying to sell and get some sliders
