How Much Mechanical Sympathy Do You Have?
What's your stance on parts and accesssories?
1. I named my kids "Carbon Fiber" and "Titanium"
2. I just love my OEMs PG&A catalog! It's got everything I need!
3. Lightweight mods from the aftermarket are the way to go, and they're often cheaper than OEM replacement parts
4. Zip-ties will fix pretty much anything!
What type of oil do you use?
1. Whatever's on sale at Lordco
2. The cheapest shit you can find at the gas station
3. A premium synthetic from an aftermarket brand
4. Your snowmobile OEM brand
At the trailhead, you:
1. Let your sled idle for 20 minutes while you get ready
2. Flash your sled up and immediately tear ass up the trail at 120
3. Bring your sled up to the manufacturer suggested operating temp
4. Smash yesterday's ice off the tunnel with a tire iron
What type of fuel do you run?
1. As specified in my operator's manual, 91 octane
2. VP Racing C12 to prevent detonation
3. E85 works just fine, I don't see what the big problem is
4. Purple gas is 10 cents cheaper, bro!
Trees are:
1. For traction
2. When I go to the arcade, I only play pinball
3. To be avoided at all costs
4. I stare at them and they call to me, but I will not be intimidated
How do you store your sled?
1. Heated shop kept at exactly 19˚C and 45% humidity
2. Covered, in an open shed
3. In a field. Hey man, squirrels need somewhere to live too
4. I built a little tent out of some 2x4s and a tarp
5. Only six months 'til riding season, it can stay in the back of the truck
How does your maintenance schedule look?
1. Say what? Come again?
2. I dunno, I pay my dealer good $$ to take care of that for me
3. The OEM suggested maintenance schedule isn't nearly comprehensive enough! I've personally torqued every nut and bolt on my sled
4. When something breaks, I fix it promptly
5. That's the next guy's problem once I roll back the odometer and flog it on Mountain Sledder Swapmeet
What do you carry for tools?
1. I have a guy who carries my tools for me (aka you are Chris Burandt)
2. I have a customized toolkit I put together myself
3. Only what came with the sled
4. A tow strap and the number for the helicopter company
5. Bolt cutters and something to scratch the VIN off
