What REV do you have?...........I'm jealous.......when I'm rich and famous, the 1st thing on my list to get is a brand new REV chassis sled........I'm still bombing around on a 95 Formula and a 80 Scorpion Whip .........having lots of fun on the old relics, though ........can't wait to get home tonight and make tracks!

I have a 2003 600 ho and love it. I already have 3200 miles on it, but get giddy each time I get to ride it. All this and no pain after a 300 mile ride..


happy riding everyone....

Well flashdancr, it's a Ski Doo (doo doo) and I am sure someone will post a pic. Radical new chassis design that riders either love or hate because of the riding style required. I haven't ridden one enough to form an honest opinion, but it's definitely different. (I have to say this, it's required by the Cat Code) Never forget that lemons are yellow!

As I tried to explain to the locals in Cancun when they asked about my broken arm... A snowmobile is like a Wave Runner with a track and skiis that runs on snow. Don't think they caught the concept.

OOOH thems fighting words. In 93, I was still content to run with the rest, rode a (oh this hurts) Polaris. Back to my racing roots with a Cat in 96, still got that one. Next sled will probably be a Firecat F7. Or an F6.

See I have this almost pathalogical (sp) dislike of SkiDoos. Goes waaaay back. But I even admit, that REV chassis is changing the industry. Nice to see SkiDoo doing something cutting edge in technology updates. Ithink the last time they did that was the switch from wooden skiis to steel .

Hey, they're all good when they run. It's just that I think Cats are the best.

Now, I will attempt to cause no more dissent, at this joyous time of year, but don't bait me. I can only be so good y'know. Only 2 more sleeps 'til Santa arrives and then I can go back to being obnoxious. . You did notice a change, didn't cha? Rick

.............I get the same feelings from my Polaris experience........have they ever done something cutting edge? ........sorry, I know it's the holiday season - don't mean to add fuel to the fire (well not too much ).......FWIW, Arctic scrap - I mean cat, does come in a close 2nd for me - I love those Fire cats..........but being a Ski-doo boy from way back, I will stick to dreaming of my new REV....... .........

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy holiday,

Cheyne
