Howdy! And welcome to "Feeder Country" where we ride high octane snowmobiles through the mountain. Subscribe to our channel for tech videos, riding adventures, and one of a kind snowmobile builds.
What about the XCR 800 the last triple Fuji with the pipes on it from the factory very fast on the trail very fast across the lake. I have an 800 twin with starting line pipes and a big airbox. I’m pretty sure that’s about 150 hp, but I think the Fuji motors were 175 stock and they were ripped you should have one of them. I think they were less weight than the storm heavyweight sled.
My son has a number of snowmobiles, and when he got a '99 Mach Z 800 triple, he then let me always ride his '97 Storm 800 triple. Yet the Storm never let me down for the past 3 winters, and sadly the Mach Z had issues and blew the motor last winter. I love riding that Storm.
@@FeederCountry I really love riding the Storm on our smoothly groomed snowmobile trails. We didn't have much snow during the beginning of last winter, but we still managed to ride the trail to Paint Lake. The ice was already thick and smooth, with only about 5 inches of snow on it, So it was fun ripping around Paint Lake well over 100 mph.
@@FeederCountry Thompson, it's in the middle of the northern half of Manitoba, Canada. So we do get a lot of snow, and yet this past winter, the southern Manitoba barely had any snow, so snowmobilers down there were quite sad. Plus Manitoba has 100,000 lakes, so we are crossing a number of lakes with our snowmobiles. And this past winter we were having some mild weather now and then, so we were hitting a lot of slush on some of the lakes. But the Storm can ride over slush no problem.
@@00AngelDog00 sounds like a great place to live in ride. I live in Lake Tahoe. We had a slightly below average winter with around 400 inches at 8,000ft.
@@FeederCountry I hope so! I have 6 XLT engines running now, 5 sleds from 93 to 97 and 1 in a Chinese side by side buggy, i called the GOOD LUCK TRIPLE. the most fun you can have with your clothes on.
you gotta remember, 50 year old riders were in their 20s when early mountain sleds started coming about (RMK 7-800, yami mtn max, vertical edge and escape) So they learned how to ride terrain and access zones on heavy older sleds most younger riders can only get to with the help of their lightweight turbo sleds..... these dudes may be old but they rip
I misread the caption and was waiting for a 50 year old sled to show up! But i also immediately knew that absolutely was not exhaust note of a 50 year old engine!! 😂
