I posted this in the zr forum in the the thread i started but i thought i might as well post it in here too
We got down at the cabin around noon christmas day and i got to wrenching on my sled at about 1:30. I worked on it for the rest of the day and into the night when i screwed up the threads on the end of my cog shaft so i had to wait till the next day to go up to a friends shop up the road and he cleaned the threads up with a die. so once i got that over with the parts started flying on once again.
By the time it was dusk i pulled my sled out of the garage and finally got to take it for its first ride since blowing it up on lake winnipeg last winter. I took it for a quick ride that night amd then spent some more time on it the next day.
I spent the week out there breaking in my engine and looking over my sled and making sure nothing has come lose.
Anyways there wasnt much snow till the last day when it snowed about 10 CM and i got to try my hand at carving for the first time and i had some fun with that, reminds me of slalom skiing where you try to get lower and tighter. anyways here are some build up pics and some riding pics.
