hey iceman i would love to use it but find that it would be silly too. i use the bombardier synthetic oil, best i can use. i like to ride in ontario, usually 4 or 5 long weekends per season. dem dern canadiens no sell Amsoil in places like Cochrane or Manitouwadge.
my poor old oil would be mixed different every weekend. i know for a fact it has far better lubricating properties but i cant get past all the mixing, they say its ok, but i dunno? some trips we live off the sleds for 5 days, nobody can carry that much oil, the most we rode in one day was 416 miles, from Cochrane to Wawa, but that was a whole different nightmare......

use it if you dont ride in the arctic circle.

also if your interested i would love to get 5-6 guys from the site to go. i know some nice but inexpensive places to stay and some great riding.....

im getting excited allready

I also use bombardier syntheic oil in my sled.

DieselDude and Iceman,

I heard that the Snow Train is a killer ride. Think it leaves out of Wawa and heads east toward Chapleau. You guys every considered that ride. I am in.

That is if Iceman and I don't hookup that fishing and drinking trip with our cousin in the Keys.

hey goose, we almost went last year, i think the only hard thing would be sitting in a train for 8 hours
i know the riding would be great...
i guess if we had a group to go i would, atleast we would have some new people to b.s. with on the ride.

[dieseldude]

p.s. i also have inlaws really close to the FLA. keys too........ count me in either way. L M A O!

Amsoil is the way to go i've been using it in my sled for a few years now and love it hardly any smell or smoke if any body in the n.w. lower has trouble locating it give me a holler and i will put you in touch with the guy up here that sells it...

Hey Iceman,

I think I am going to stick with the OEM Bombardier Oil we have been running. Easy to find at most mom and pop stores.

I'm interested in finding out more on the Snow Train. Does anyone have any numbers to call to get more info??

Iceman, on the oil topic, I use whatever the sled manual recommends while on warranty then switch to Amsoil or Red line.
