That style cat has an ugly ass face 😂 I love the 2003 an 2004 fire cat modles they were the best looking also the older thunder cats an vintage el Tigre’s an panteras we’re sweet looking
Hey now, those F-1000’s were awesome for their time. My brother had a 2007, and it was awesome to ride. Not many sleds were competing with it. It was the baddest sled around in my area. He has a crossfire 1000 now, which is my favourite sled of all time. It’s such a good looking sled. 😂
Really. I had one and its the Barney sled for looks. Plus the diamond drive was a piece of crap. Its the sled that made me switch to skidoo after being a die hard AC guy.
@@richardcollins7351 It’s definitely not the best looking sled out there, that’s for sure. But my brothers was solid. He never had to do anything to it outside of regular maintenance, and replaced an A arm after he smoked a rock he didn’t see. 😂 It ran great. 🤷🏻♂️
I have Zero Snow ! Upper Peninsula of Michigan , Kingsford ! Home of the Flivvers , and VIKINGS ! Next time we have Snow ! Come here , We’ll Race ! And Party !
Cheers Pete another great video. My father in law has the 1100 4 stroke version of that ugly sled. At least it looks fairly simple to work on. Didn’t see any JR talls in this vid but I guess there is always next time.
cheers! ya I had to do a full service on a fellas 1100 like this and ya gotta take the seat and gas tank off just to get at the freakin spark plugs 🤦🤣 🍻
Love diamond drives. Makes it so much easier to swap tracks. I can do it in a little less than an hour on my 2011 Crossfire . What you did worked but I like leaving the caliper bolted in. Just take the big nut off the driveshaft and push the driveshaft towards the diamond drive side. Love your video's man!!
Good one guys. I didn't know they made a diamond drive with reverse, my 06 f6 had diamond without it. Was an excellent sled for me, she dangled until the clutch pooched.
Great video. My buddy is getting ready to change out his diamond drive. He changed his track and the track clips eat through his diamond drive lost all fluid. I guess you have to grind down the clips on one side of the track. Keep an eye on it
Cool video again Pete 👍 We got 2 days of riding down here in Wisconsin.. Got 170 miles on my old Yamaha vmax. Hopefully more snow next year. Cheers buddy 🍺🍺
Omg, Pete I really enjoyed your videos with your hot wife, my buddy Dennis has got a 1979 John Deere 340 he bought new, always been in the shed, helped helped him get it going, new carb belt windshield, waiting on a snow, and fuel pump, never rode one, about a hour out of St.Louis, Mo, Beer drinker like you and your friends, amazing videos, retired, love to laugh, you are good at that amagine that, hell of a mechanic, God bless you and your wife, 👌👍🍺
hell, yes Nice One another great video hope things are going good for you guys were i live in Lansing mi. we don't have any snow just mud well thanks for the video you're the man have a great day and God Bless
Those Cats remind me of the guy from Bettlejuice that stretches his face out lol. As usual, great vid Pete. Keep ‘Em coming. Btw love my hoodie, will be wearing it at sled races this weekend.
Ultimax for the Kawi's eh? Might have to look into that, my Drifter 440 has had the same old beat up factory belt on it as long as I can remember lol. Nice one
My first sled was a 2008 LXR version of that same sled. Kind of a tank and she didn’t dangle with the 1” track. Was fast for its time and did a great job of vibrating your filling loose. Like to say it was a nice one but it was kind of a couch
Should of went one step further and loosened that skinny nut off on the calliper side. Pull the shaft out of the housing and had a look at the bearing. Would not have taken long. Having two Cats with Diamond Drives and as far as I’m concerned they worked great. Just the secondary clutch needed aftermarket things to make them work right.
I was watching your videos you we’re doing Christine‘s driveshaft. You mentioned how much it cost at Napa. I had an auto body shop for almost 40 years I stopped buying from Napa like 10 years ago they’re super rip offs all the business I gave them they never gave me a good break on any parts, I had a part I needed for a Chevy truck. They want $550 for it. I got it on Amazon for like $135 .
Hey bud, get that secondary rebuilt asap. Theres a guy out east that does the hub mod in canada for Mel from Formula in the states. Also Arnie at Arnies Cat house here in muskoka does a cool mylar sheeve rebuild that solves that issue too. Its nutso good after that.
Thanks. You guys ever pull an engine to replace with a different one and sell the one you took out? I happen to be looking for one to play with. Thanks for sharing.
If you were going to name your snowmobile after a Fish , or Flipper Mammal , What’s her Name ? The thing that eats You ! Heart , Barracuda , off the table ! Think ! What ?
You Super Snowmobile HOSERS in Canada , ride with just ear plugs in , but before you leave ? 3 or 4 Beers , and Listening to Triumph , a HOSER BAND ! What’s the Snowmobile do to you ? Magic Power ! I’m a Yooper ! Fear Me ! I’m FAST ! Quick really ! Hold On !
Stud spun out, thats normal when you use a rattle gun to loosen nuts and bolts instead of a wrench. Rattle guns are ok but they will always spin out a stud when you cant get or it's very hard to get anything on the back. If you are not keeping the track to put on another machine, just cut it instead of fighting to get it off, save the fight to get the new one on Artic Cat 1000 @ 72mph, not very good. Big heavy machine . My brothers 81 340 Enticer deluxe does 70 all week long.
Oh man, I don't know about this sled, my single piped Yamaha MM 700 does 60 mph in 203 ft in 4,05 seconds. By 250 ft the speed is 63,34 mph and ET is 4,56. The MM is set for trail/powder use. Data aquired with racebox and the racebox app.
Ever been at that point of Ultimate Buzz ? And Alan Parsons came on , Sirius , Eye in the Sky Played ! I see GOD ! And he’s Riding a Polaris Man ! Through the Desert , and Snow just appears in front of him ! Beyond Magic ! Pin It ! Go big or go to Heaven ! God doesn’t like Pussies ! But I hear ? He likes Beavers !
I'm using the "Dragy" it cost about $200 for the unit and it links to your phone. it is deadly accurate for all the race info like 0-60, 300 foot, 1/8th mile, quarter mile and will give you speeds and times! only downside is it doesn't show top speed...unless you set it for 1/2mile and giver a squeeze lol 🤣 🍻
Those twin spar chassis are not the prettiest. I had a 2009 Z1 Turbo that lost a secondary. After I found out they didn't make them anymore and there was 1 new one in the country for a small fortune, I decided to sell it after I found a used one to replace it. I think replacement parts will be their long-term Achilles heal. I heard you can't get anything new for the DD anymore.
Those arctic cats got a face only a mother could love. 😂😂 Nice one🍻
That style cat has an ugly ass face 😂 I love the 2003 an 2004 fire cat modles they were the best looking also the older thunder cats an vintage el Tigre’s an panteras we’re sweet looking
Yo mama can love
🤣🍻

Pete that primary clutch needs some love bud

Great video again guys! ☃️👍👍🍻
thank you! 🍻
I roll the backcountry track as well, best track in my opinion, nice one!!
If that sled had a chain case instead of that diamond drive you would be pushing 100..Those rob so much power..You always make us laugh.Cheers!!!
cheers! 🍻🤣
My Crossfire 1000 runs out of gear at 123 mph. Diamond drives have zero downside if maintained.
Love the channel watched for long time …I also like that song you and me going fishing in the dark haha
haha thank you! cheers 🍻
Pete I'm so surprised you could stand starring at that suitcase! Omg lol
🤣🍻
Never less than 240 studs , Let’s go all the Way ! Good tune too

thank you! cheers 🍻
That Bravo dangles. 42mph is actually really solid when you figure 250cc that is as old as some grandparents.
🤣🍻
It might be the ugliest looking chassis but It sure is the BEST riding chassis!
it really does ride and handle awesome! 🍻
Those Cats remind me of the guy from Bettlejuice that stretches his face out lol. As usual, great vid Pete. Keep ‘Em coming. Btw love my hoodie, will be wearing it at sled races this weekend.

This is why I keep old 2 strokes. Shit my xc600 hits 105. 80 on a short stretch like that. Just crazy how slow the new stuff is

🤣🍻
Holy crap time for a run to the beer store you're down to the warning lable on both them 30 packs lol
🤣🍻
ya know what the warnin label is dontcha ?@@rednecksdirtyhands
Ultimax for the Kawi's eh? Might have to look into that, my Drifter 440 has had the same old beat up factory belt on it as long as I can remember lol.
Nice one
haha yeah I think it might even be the same belt as the old Bravo!! the list of sleds it fits was longer than the line at the beer store! 🤣🍻
My first sled was a 2008 LXR version of that same sled. Kind of a tank and she didn’t dangle with the 1” track. Was fast for its time and did a great job of vibrating your filling loose. Like to say it was a nice one but it was kind of a couch

We call those year cats DUCK BILLS in the states lol great video
cheers 🍻
I had a John deer spitfire 1978 it was direct drive as well it’s a similar test up .
Nice One! 🍻
U can take the belt and clutch off at the same time without going threw the work of spreading the clutch and put it back on
Nice one! Thanks bub!!
cheers 🍻
Seems like you were letting off sooner then when you had the ski door! You should put a cone out where your going to let off.
yeah thats a good idea! 🍻
Nice one, keep up the great work brother. Peace and love Turtle
thank you! cheers 🍻
I was watching your videos you we’re doing Christine‘s driveshaft. You mentioned how much it cost at Napa. I had an auto body shop for almost 40 years I stopped buying from Napa like 10 years ago they’re super rip offs all the business I gave them they never gave me a good break on any parts, I had a part I needed for a Chevy truck. They want $550 for it. I got it on Amazon for like $135 .
yeah the price of parts is just gettin way outta hand! 🍻
Nice work boys 👍🍺
Thank you! Cheers!🍻
You let off to early!!!! Hahahah
🤣 that's what she said! 🤣🍻
That primary looks like it could use some attention tbh...
🍺🍺🍻🍻
Twin Spar. 2006 what was Arctic Cat thinking. D-Ron must have got sled for cheap, "eh"
🤣🍻
Hey bud, get that secondary rebuilt asap. Theres a guy out east that does the hub mod in canada for Mel from Formula in the states.
Also Arnie at Arnies Cat house here in muskoka does a cool mylar sheeve rebuild that solves that issue too. Its nutso good after that.
D Ron's Last Call Cat! 🥴
🤣🍻
Thanks. You guys ever pull an engine to replace with a different one and sell the one you took out? I happen to be looking for one to play with. Thanks for sharing.
You were wrong about d Ron he seems like a good guy
My Old Lady goes both ways ! It’s called reverse Cow Girl
That still has the flip up gas cap there's a recall to have the tank replaced because they cracked an leak just had my f6 done
Sky !
She’s a beaut a Clark.
I chugged a beer every time you said d Ron
lmfao 🤣 jeez that's one way to crush a case! haha I think I said it alot so ya probably got a wee bit of a hangover today eh! 🤣🤪🍻
I just woke up who hit me
How about taking some of this snow we got here in cape breton ..see you can use some . Got 150 cm in 72 hours . Nice one!
Jeez that's alot of snow!! 🍻
Ultimax belt makes a 1000cc 4 stroke go faster than a 1974 Puma 440 ,
There used to be straight gears you could put in the diamond drive
You chose between torque or speed with a small difference
Cross threads are better than no threads!
haha well ya ain't wrong there! 🤣🍻
Looks like that truck from Wisconsin
If you were going to name your snowmobile after a Fish , or Flipper Mammal , What’s her Name ? The thing that eats You ! Heart , Barracuda , off the table ! Think ! What ?
What is it about the studs. Is it the studs or the backers you dislike? Are plastic backers better?
it's just that brand if backer...they are terrible for cracking and breaking apart. just a poor design and the wrong grade of aluminum I think 🤔🍻
Diamond drive looks like portal from a utv
yeah kind of the same idea..🍻
yasss
🍻
Beyond Reality ! Can you see it ?
You Super Snowmobile HOSERS in Canada , ride with just ear plugs in , but before you leave ? 3 or 4 Beers , and Listening to Triumph , a HOSER BAND ! What’s the Snowmobile do to you ? Magic Power ! I’m a Yooper ! Fear Me ! I’m FAST ! Quick really ! Hold On !
Jim or Billy?😂 🍻
haha both! 🤣🍻
Pete I see your girl likes her new jeep that’s because she doesn’t have to work on it you do😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
haha thanks! she does love it and she's more than willin to help fixer up! 🍻
At 12 to 13 beers , try Two Cellos , it’s Classical Rock ?
Stud spun out, thats normal when you use a rattle gun to loosen nuts and bolts instead of a wrench. Rattle guns are ok but they will always spin out a stud when you cant get or it's very hard to get anything on the back.

Artic Cat 1000 @ 72mph, not very good. Big heavy machine . My brothers 81 340 Enticer deluxe does 70 all week long.
Strange looking Helix’s in a Diamond Drive
i think my 78 john deere 440 liquifire would hit 65 mph on that run !!
Nice One! 🍻
Oh man, I don't know about this sled, my single piped Yamaha MM 700 does 60 mph in 203 ft in 4,05 seconds. By 250 ft the speed is 63,34 mph and ET is 4,56. The MM is set for trail/powder use. Data aquired with racebox and the racebox app.

I can’t actually prove it ? But Beer , makes a body Strong ! 2 beers is an 8 ounce steak , in Protein , build muscle , drink Beer !
Was that clutch moving all over the place was it just me?
🤣 yeah it looked like it was gunna take flight!! 🍻
This would have been the time to install Wahl Brothers Drivers
That Paddle track slows it down on the Top End! And that Sled is UGLY! Nice work!
Pete what drag app do you have bipity boo !
I'm using the "Dragy" it cost about $200 for the unit and it links to your phone. it is deadly accurate for all the race info like 0-60, 300 foot, 1/8th mile, quarter mile and will give you speeds and times! only downside is it doesn't show top speed...unless you set it for 1/2mile and giver a squeeze lol 🤣 🍻
thank u@@rednecksdirtyhands
i got a 2010 AC F8 SnoPro with almost 10,000 miles! they are ugly as all get out! i got a black low pro windsheild id sell ya!
Hey yo bud need ur help my belt went on my zr rr 8000 put new one on now my primary is making noise
Seems to be an awful lot of corrosion on those clutches.
Those twin spar chassis are not the prettiest. I had a 2009 Z1 Turbo that lost a secondary.

I think replacement parts will be their long-term Achilles heal. I heard you can't get anything new for the DD anymore.
For a 1000 that less than 75 is shameful. My 95 xlt which is a 600 will get 85 or better consistently
At 135 mph , Uriah Heep plays , song , QUESTION , good song , keep it Pinned !
Skäl
🍻
Get an ultimax neck tattoo
lmao 🤣 just go straight to the Tyson face tat!! 🍻
