snowmobile over water - badmojo - 02-14-2007
yeah I got to ride a snowmobile one time a while back, I did some jumps but never thought hey lets take it to the nearest pond or lake and try to cross it, forget that noise, to cold to be a water mochassin. then I see the dudes this year at the winter xgames on espn doing back flips, man they have some big grapefruits to pull that off, I mean what if you don't make it.
snowmobile over water - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-14-2007
thats a whole lot of sled to be whipping around lmao
snowmobile over water - Traxxas_Junkee - 02-14-2007
Actually you would be surprised. They don't have any electronic motor parts on sleds, maybe some of the new fancy ones, but my uncles friend fell through the ice a few years back, all they did was pull it up flush out the cylinders, put a new batt in, and fired it up, good as new. As long as you get it out soon enough you won't hurt anything. All of the gauges and stuff are analog, they were made to get wet.
snowmobile over water - motoxer4life - 02-14-2007
all that stuff is made to get wet. With the engine all you gotta do is rebuild it basically cause of the water build up that comes in through. I know that cause my stepdad once went into a little pond on his dirtbike and and fell and we had to rebuild it.
snowmobile over water - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-14-2007
thats basically what i meant, motors arent made to go under water get wet fine but not submerged
snowmobile over water - badmojo - 02-14-2007
yeah you would think that if they were sunk to long it would be like dirt in a nitro engine and tear it up
snowmobile over water - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-14-2007
just gotta make sure u dont start them with any water in them
snowmobile over water - motoxer4life - 02-14-2007
exactly y you drain it.
snowmobile over water - tim kasper - 02-15-2007
all you have to do is dry everything out, a big pain in the a$$.the seat is the hardest thing to dry and you dont usally have to rebuild the motor. i wont go into details but just trust me on this one.
snowmobile over water - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 02-15-2007
i wonder what bruce thinks?
lmao
snowmobile over water - badmojo - 02-15-2007
