[QUOTE="lostinnd, post: 149251, member: 1428"] It is a liquid cooled 4 stroke. I know it is a heavy sled but it sounds like the yamaha 4 strokes are good reliable sleds. I went through and greased everything I could find and trickle charged the battery and the sled starts right up even in this cold as long as I hit the choke. We ended up ordering some gmax double pane helmets from dennis kirk but depending on the fit and how they perform we might return for electric shields. I hear the skidoo modular helmets are nice but there are a lot of people out there that seem to have issues with them freezing shut when its cold too so who knows. Its going to be a cruiser for the farm and some ice fishing and with helmets we will keep it safe, if we like it maybe next sled will be a higher performance one. I already picked up some exhaust turnouts so I can use the tunnel to mount something to carry ice fishing or other gear and probably a backrest for the lady. Just waiting for the helmets and warmer weather to get it out! This year there seems to be plenty of snow on the ice to keep it cool but sounds like I might have to look into ice scratchers in the future to keep it cool. I do need a spare belt, anything special with belts out there or will any old one work? Thanks for the input guys [/QUOTE]
