Hi all -
Thanks to many of you on here who've helped me with the search for my first sled for my ice-fishing adventures. Yesterday I brought it home - so far I'm very pleased.
Introducing my 2007 Ski-doo Skandic Tundra V-800. 4-stroke engine. 18,900 miles.
Along with the excitement, there is a bit of trepidation as this my very first snow mobile and I realize the learning curve that lies ahead. I has some miles on it, but I hope it will serve me well, and by all appearances it should.
My first little setback is that my trailer seems too short for this machine - will have to fix that quickly. Just glad I manged to get it home in one piece.
Now that it sits in my garage, I plan on taking off the panels and having a good detailed look at all the bits and pieces. I need to find all the zirk fittings, give a general cleanup and make a list of wearable items to replace. I already know two of them: hyfax on both sides, and carbides.
I would like your advice on how to do the proper baseline maintenance - something I do with all the used vehicles I've acquire. An oil change is that's due in 400 miles. The PO has been using the 0W40 synthetic oil in the motor.
Meanwhile, here are some pictures I've taken so far:
Not sure why the images aren't showing up from google photo album (I've pasted shared links above).
I'm including the link to the whole Album, please let me know if that link works or not:
