View Full Version : Ben Comes Clean.....
Hey
I need to come clean.....I sold my sled at the beginning of the season and have not been out yet this year.
However, I have asked forgiveness of the snow gods and they have blessed me with the attached. Sorry JRad, I know we were Polaris bros and all but my profile has been changed to Doo. Should have it out on the snow shortly. BTW - The snow gods told me to expect snow sometime around the middle of next week.
Ben
Nice
Hope to see you out on the mountain. I know i'd be bouncing of the walls waiting to ride a new sled.

Went to the dark side.....Didn't ya!? LOL I'm a Yami and a Doo fan myself......But look @ what I own and what I'm building for a Mod Sled.....Polaris (I call them pulplunks or pulsh*!) :eek: LOL. They are all good and they all have there own sets of problems! It really doesn't matter...JMHO
By the way Ben......That is a real nice sled. I have rode one myself. I hope you get to use it. ;)
I am anxious to ride it, so it will be out soon. Even though it only has 50 miles on it, it needs a couple of parts and a few tweaks. All on order/scheduled.
Ben,
The next time you share some dialogue with the "Snow Gods", could you please request more snow!!! :D
Sweet sled!

Very nice Ben. My buddy just bought an 09 XP 146 and that thing is AWESOME! I am selling my XRS 151 and buying an XP this next week. Come on snow. You will love it.

WOW that's a nice looking ride you got there! I'm not sure if it's in your owners manual or not but it seems like everybody that gets a new skidoo has to post vid's of it on youtube catwalking...........you gonna??? I'd like to see it.
save your allowance for belts

The new and improved belt is one of the parts on the way.

we had to tow one out last weekend, just quit when it got back on the trail, no spark. Then I rode with three of them the weekend before, and they got around pretty good, all three of them rode my BF Dragon's and they said that his did carve easier.
Well Ben, we need some snow so you can check that new baby out.

I sold my sled to get a Dragon. This came a long, and it was a good deal, so I thought I would try it out. We'll see how it goes and if Polaris does anything next year to drop the Dragon weight even more.
first of all congrats...... but........DAMM Ben.. its not the switching sides that I am worried about.... its the ZERO riding time you have gotten this year...what is that all about.... i know you havent had a sled, but dont you have friends that have extra sleds? i know if i was closer you could ride mine...
anyways good luck with the Doo... i have heard good and bad things about them...you should let us know all the parts and ideas you have in store for the new hotness...

Yeah that would be nice if they could drop more weight on the D's like the doo's. I got to admit I like the weight on my sled, it's alot lighter than my old edge chassic.
Well anyway.... Welcome to the black side as everyone one else says.

Boy do I agree with you there. I suffer from withdrawals if I don't get to ride EVERY weekend. How could you possibly have gone this long without riding?
hey ben, Now that you have ridden the summit x what you think? still going for a dragon? doo dealer here offered me an 08 summit everest for 7900.00.
Crazy deals going on this year. Might take him up on it but waiting to see what Polaris does on incentives next week.

Riding tomorrow or Friday, and hopefully Saturday.
A local Doo dealer has a new 2008 Summit Everest on the floor with an advertised price of $7567 (or something like that). They were down to $7900 during the OSSA show, and have gone down since.
