Finally got around to getting a picture of my new sled. It's in my trailer right now, but will be heading to northern lower MI this coming weekend to it's new home. Got some accessories and stuff to add on once I get up there. Can't wait, bring on the SNOW........ revinmotion.gif

RV245, sharp-looking sled, 1200 correct?

 

Doo did right by finally fitting it with the XS bodywork!

 

Let us know how you like that 4-stroke triple, my 900 ACE is the best all-around sled I've ever had.

I got that 900 HO in my '15 SeaDoo Spark, I think they're more or less the same engine, although I could be wrong! I've gotta admit, that 900 sure moves the Spark really well. Really satisfied by the MPG too, it is amazing how little fuel I use on the water. Not sure if I would go 4 stroke on the Sled yet... 800 ETEC is on the wish list :-)

900HO in the Spark is the same engine as in the sled.

 

I haven't ridden a 1200, but I'm sure it would be nice. I'm sold on the 4-stroke, no more 2-stroke for me.

Shredzy, Yes it's a 1200. I wanted a 900X which Doo didn't offer. I wanted a 4 stroke so went with the 1200.

I had a 04 REV 600HO prior to getting this sled, so it's quite a big jump up. I have 2 14 900HO Sparks. One is a 2 up and the other a 3 up. Love riding them especially in the sports mode.

I'm sure with the RAS2 and R motion rear, it's going to be a great riding sled. I hit the big 6-0 this year so decided on a 4 stoke, especially after riding the Sparks. I had my share of working on sleds when I was heavy into vintage sleds. I'm hoping next year Doo does come out with a 900X. Cause if they Doo, my wife will be getting a new sled.

Corrisa,

 

Looked for you but missed you at the show. Hope you had a fun trip!

 

Got most of what was on my list at the snow show:

Studs and carbides for both sled

Jacket for me

Jacket for one of our boys

Oil

Couple shirts and sweatshirt for one of our boys and my wife

 

Just wasn't sure on a helmet, but put one in layaway at a local store last Sat. Wife also has a new set of boots and bibs in layaway.

 

Hopefully we don't need anything else for a while!!!

 

Just need time stud the sleds now!!! And get them ready for the season!!!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Average Assembly 4.8%   That's the likelihood of a light duty vehicle reaching 250,000 miles. Link below has the stats on this. Among pickups the 350 series (Dodge)  and higher (450 Ford) are most likely and nothing American built in the lighter trucks pegs a number higher than the overall average.  200K and up is the stomping grounds of Asian vehicles. Toyota Sequoia the leader at 39.1% probability.      https://www.autoweek.com/news/a68886903/vehicles-most-likely-to-last-over-250000-miles/   Likelihood drops dramatically at 100,000 miles of reaching even 150,000 miles. 250,000 is deep in the tail of the curve.    I've been told by the 'experts' that I don't need oils of the caliber I use. My high viscosity is damaging my motors. Ash content it to high and WILL foul plugs and kill cats and O2's. I don't need that much ZDP; my choice is over added and not cutting edge. I change it to often. I baby them to much.    Three Honda's reached 200K + and none used oil. All Red Line motors. All sold to friends or family. One Toyota reached 300K using oil, Pennzoil. Dizzy 300K using QSUD until it cashed the rings at 80K then whatever but often ever since. Did you know this engine still sports the OEM timing chain and is dead silent? Pepper spitting into the wind short of 200K, Red Line and changed often. Uses zero oil. A HPFP and a pinion seal. Still using most parts it left Fort Wayne with. So 50% of my vehicles have gone past 250K and 100% of the last half dozen past 200K. Of these two using "shelf oils' did so using abnormal oil and the four that used a premium boutique oil did not. There might be something there the experts have missed. 🤔

      “Service Emission System” & “175 miles until “65 MPH Max Speed”

      By ManyCamaroz · Posted

      It's not that it sits for extended periods. I drive it every couple of weeks. However, I did consider draining the DEF and replacing it.    Don't you get a "Poor quality DEF warning" if its bad?

      Try draining the def and relacing with new if it has been sitting for a long time. Def does go bad after a little while.

      2015 Silverado with HUD retrofit/upgrade.

      By Thestonedone · Posted

      Thanks @Viktorrocks15 if you are still out there.   I followed your instructions and worked out great, went to the scrap yard and procured 2016 escalade cluster, hud, bezel, and switch. Got lucky and found a Camaro in the u-pull with the HUD bezel.   I made my own harness with these diagrams: https://www.gmupfitter.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/23_Escalade_Escalade_ESV_Electrical_Body_Builder_SM_en_US_2022OCT25.pdf   I used escalade cluster because its the best one that will work IMO. Still need to get it programmed but it looks really good.
