I bought a used sled from a dealer in Shawano,WI. a couple of years ago. The guy I talked to knew the guy that traded in the sled that I bought. I got a very good sled in great condition. It helps to know your dealer.
The best luck Iv'e had was a dealer in Shawano,WI. I bought A used sled and the mechanic I talked to knew the history of every machine. He helped me out alot.
Just wondering, If you can't see a sled in front of you why should you be able to see a flag on the same sled? By the way, how tall do they require you to put that tree branch knocker in the air?
I know you love sleds, but wouldn'a three(triple) be a little on the heavy side? I'm not trying to discourage you but there are a lot of great twins on the market right now. Just my 2cents
