Dang your vids are funny and entertaining as well as enlightening for sled repairs! Keep 'em coming.👍
thank you! cheers 🍻
Damn you made me LOL with the mag side cylinder being married for a decade comment! 🤣 24 years for me. I can definitely relate with that cylinder.
HA!...newlyweds!
lmao 🤣 Nice One! 🍻
I love this channel!! Great content and tips to help. Plus the comedy presented through your one liners makes your channel unique and fucking awesome!!
I really appreciate that! thank you and cheers! 🍻
Wow she is a looker, definitely a smoker and judging by your smiles, a stroker too lol good for you man
I will say this much! I can’t help but laugh every time I watch your videos. I like your sense of humor
I appreciate that! cheers 🍻
It was nice to meet you today at the radar runs On horseshoe lake your the best
thank you, it was great to meet you too! it was a beauty day out on the lake and fun rippin the sleds! 🍻
Pete. It's crazy but I feel like I know you and your friends. I've learned a lot watching your videos. I agree with the other RN DH Comentators. You should make your girl your better half. Keep the snowmobile videos coming.
haha great minds think alike eh! 🍻
Knocking back a Busch at 3am after work. Love the hang out vibe here
🍻
Man you need to have your own show and paid Big bucks !! Talented and Hilarious , videos keep getting better , nice shout out to Nish Guy , don't know him but obviously first nations like mysel.
haha thanks! own show would be sweet!!! maybe Discovery is watching lol 🤞 cheers 🍻
the exhaust can get real hot and is right up against the fan intake
Pete you are the most natural and talented mechanic on YT in my opinion. Youve been an inspiration to take on some projects for the summer. Picked up a ZR700 and a Kawi 440 Drifter for 700 for both. Lots of mechanicking in the future and your videos will be great help. 🍻 🍻 🍻
that's awesome! and thank you very much!!! I really appreciate the kind words, and I hope ya get them just a Danglin!! 🤣🍻
As a young fella I wouldn't
Of tried to do what you do
But watching your videos makes me want to get my teen boys repairing our old fleet
that's awesome! cheers 🍻
WOW Pete you are hilarious to watch. Loved the cylinder comparison 100% spot on. 🍺🍺
Thanks 👍🍻
Nice one Pete! Beaver trappens doing pretty good too! 🙂 I had one old sled that burned down the LEFT/ hot side three times in the 20 yrs. I had it,due to a mouse nest in the fan shroud! I just cleaned the aluminum off the nikasil with muratic acid and installed new piston! Never really hurt the cylinder any.
Greetings from up the highway in Peterborough. Love the videos. I was waiting for you to get a swat when you said cougar in the woods. Lol
Thanks for another Great Video. Also a big Thanks To your Girl Friend for all the behind the scene work that she does and working on getting the merchandise ready! As always Keep er Going and CHEERS!!!
Good video as always Pete . Lucky to make a living doing what you love
OMG! I had no idea about those plastic plugs under the bulkhead for the front engine mounts! Wish I would have known that last year. You rock Pete, thanks for that tip!
You bet! cheers 🍻
How else would they get the motor mounts bolted in the sled?
@@robertanthony9674 I've never removed the bolts. I've always just pulled the nuts and lifted the motor out. It is VERY difficult to get to the driver side front nut when you have electric start because the starter motor sits on top of the nut.
One of many 550 fans
Dude. You are a riot!
haha thanks! 🤣🍻
One of my favorite channels. And now with hot stuff showing up now and then. lol. Keep the vids. coming!!
haha well thank ya! 🍻
Nice one! Good Mechanic, and a Comedian to boot! What else could we ask for? Christina !
Sesame Street and cold ones in the same video is like watching a timeline of my life sleds included. I think checking the bottom end in addition to checking compression is a must.
🤣🍻
Had a 01' Z570 fan cooled, What an amazing sled! Always started, always ran strong. Never left me stranded, fouled a plug one time on a first start of the year! Powered By Suzuki!!!
Same thing happened to me. I had a '96 MXZ. Just died one day. Tested electricals .. all good. Carbs fully cleaned. All good. Tried a few other things. Nothing made sense. Then I glanced over and saw the plastic cap gone. Ugh. Drained the fuel, refilled, put some gasline antifreeze ... boom.
Another great video. Great to see Christine (spelling?) again. Goofy couple you two crazy kids make.
Love to come down to your shop some day :)
Great video Pete, Dam you are so funny, keep them videos coming bud, hopefully you didn’t get hurt in that love shack 😂😂
haha thanks! 🤣🍻
Lol that ending was hilarious
🤣🍻
Those Indy 550’s are pretty damn reliable.
big fan up here in Mount Pearl Newfoundland and having a beer or 5 watching the video! Cheers and keep the wicked content coming!
that's awesome! cheers Newfoundland 🍻
Great video Pete I love you're humor in your content. Keep us entertained with many more 🍻🍻🍺🍺
Thanks 👍🍻
You are one goofy Canadian…….and I love it! NICE ONE!!!
haha thanks! 🍻
Love the old sled content Pete, makes me look good to my Maine beaver trap when fixing up my old stuff! Thanks for channel
Right on! 🍻
Another Mainer who loves your videos right here 🤘Pete and ol Peg from zipties and bias plies are two northern neighbors I'd love to have a cold snack with
My 550 Super Sport Polaris didn't have a tachometer so I bought a used one from Ebay. Plugs right in to wires under the hood. Works great!
1:47 “this is a pretty clean looking unit…” as he points with his dirty finger. ROTFL keep up the great vids, Pete!
Just awesome, hilarious dude.
haha thanks! 🤣🍻
Pete , you are So Awesome. Great entertaining Vids.🤙
thank you! cheers 🍻
Always lift with your back in a twisting,jerking motion! Great video once again Pete!
haha thank you! 🍻
Great entertaining vids Pete. Keep them coming.
Thanks 👍🍻
Pete she gorgeous, any sisters? 😂😂😂😂 Syracuse ain't that far lol! Rock on Happy Easter
And that’s a Nice Beaver too. Used the old Snapper Trapper for that one.
congratulations from Spain, I love your videos
Awesome! Thank you! cheers Spain 🍻
I was looking for beaver but found a cougar instead. Lol. You crack me up. The Misses is a good sport. So easy to work on the older sleds, designed with the mechanic in mind for the most part.
Your analogy of new relationship versus old relationship sent me out of my chair.
Great video. Love the ending..... had me laughing pretty hard
haha thanks! 🍻
Hahaha Awesome Bros. Thanks For The Shout out ... ur girl Nice woman. THANKS FOR SHARING! lol jks. If I see any tricks that I know of that you don't. I'll comment to it. Ttyl

Love it . Your the man
haha thank you! 🍻
Love the vids bud. Keep em coming. A fan from Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. Love the SRX Yomama and the Firecats in ur shop
thanks! that's awesome, cheers Nunavut 🍻
Hey Pete, you must be eating your Wheaties, ripped that engine out like it was nothing! 💪
lol years of training! lifting all those bud lights 🤣🍻
You are so unpredictable great engine swap great humour and nice wife hup! Nice one.👍🍺😁💪
haha thank you! 🍻
Great video! I had a few breaks myself, it's so nice to hear the crack and hiss of break time. Not a Polaris guy either, maybe usually found more than 1 or 2 on the trails with their hoods up. I ride Yomama's LOL Thank again!
haha thank you! 🍻
Always enjoy your videos. If I could find sleds to work on a would have my garage full also .. problem being I can never seem to let them
Go after I get them all fixed up
Nothing like a little instant gratification and reward from your BUDS, eh Pete? I think I'll join ya (pssshhht) Cheers!🍻
haha cheers! 🍻
Pete, you're a hoot!!!!
Love watching you guys you always make me laugh
thank you! 🍻
Need a HONEY HAULER sticker Pete. 2-up Chump I’ve been called
haha Nice One! 🍻
Smarten up Pete…that shouldn’t be called a girlfriend any longer
lol yeah I think you're right!! 🍻
Lmao Steve said it !!
For sure... Way over chicked! Lol.
Pete you missed the best joke ever. Hole in the mouth of the sock gf. Lolol
Doner motor is a keeper! Tight two holes.
Nice sofa sled! I think Polaris is the only company to offer a fan cooled, 2 stroke with a pull start these days and the 550 is a good motor.
Yamaha makes the vk540 as well
The old, gas cap doubles as a funnel trick eh, been there. You know its bad when the whole thing is frozen and wont come out. Nice One~
Sleds are so easy to fix!! Great video 😎👍
thanks 🍻
Great flick man. Love ending
thanks! 🍻
Frickin Awesome!
Haha the red ones are pretty wild Pete !
Love working on sleds to brother ! Pei Canada ..watch your videos ..keep em coming I ride 04 f7 ;)
Thanks, will do! cheers P.E.I 🍻
I wish I could ride with you guys I love riding alone drinking beer I love working on sleds
The 550 fans were ALL jetted to lean on the pilot jet. The ones i see burn have been on midrange, never at WOT.
Awesome video Pete. nothing better than working on the old sleds even if it's a Polaris lol 😆
You got that right! 🍻
Nice one Pete! You crack me up 😂 😂😂 cheers 🍻
haha thanks! cheers 🍻
Found a cougar, and got beaver too. Lmao. Love your channel.
haha 🤣 thanks and cheers 🍻
Best ending scene so far 😄😄👍👍
haha thanks! 🤣🍻
I made a successful 120 mile run this morning at 0430. I'm like hell yeah another RNDH's episode😁 very good video. Every good man needs a good lady, it's good to see you happy all the time on the show now I see why😁👍👍
I sold my SXR700, now I'm thinking of getting that ZL500 i been eyeing. I do have a nice 151 skid and track that I bought at a yard sale for cheap now I'm thinking Low Gear TimberCat for this summer's project.
That is awesome! and thank you, every man does deserve a good woman and it's pretty hard not to be happy all the time with Kristina around! I appreciate all the positive feedback and sounds like you might have a good little project there! cheers 🍻
@@rednecksdirtyhands no problem Mr. Pete. Like everyone is saying get married to that great lady you got lifes too short.
Thanks for posting these high quality mechanic vids because they are very entertaining 👍
Best episode yet!😆 But seriously, where do I get the RNDH/"Nice one" decals. Must. Have. Decals.
haha thanks! 🍻 stickers will be available online soon
You must be related to Red Green. Cheers🙂
haha good ol Uncle Red! 🤣🍻
It's the trapper hat !! You might even find a hare or two .
You know why Polaris parts are easy to come apart?? ..... Because they're always being worked on lol. They also say Polaris is the way out! .... Yeah!!!! outside to your garage to work on it..😁
nice one pete.
Thanks 👍🍻
Its a edge 550. No surprise there. Those are known for mid range issues. Oil pump cavitation. Lost mine that way. Didn't wanna rebuild it. Slapped a rotax 670 into it. Now she dangles!!
Nice work Pete !! Always informative 👍
Another great vid.
I appreciate that! thank you and cheers 🍻
@rednecksdirtyhands being a fellow Canadian who also loves fixing and riding sleds watching the struggles makes me feel better haha. I'm not alone!

You need to come down to Nebraska and go for a rip with us and have a few cold ones dude love your videos keep them coming wooo HOOOOOOO
haha sounds like a good time! 🍻
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!🍻
Jesus pete for a guy that doesn't really like Polaris you sure drove that beast around a bit lol. Good job though Pete keep up the good work from down town stayner Ontario pete nice work .
Thanks 👍cheers 🍻
She's a nice one for sure
550 are notorious for piston problems and I believe they have a oiler update kit available
I can't drink beer anymore because of heart high b.p. trouble, Pete, will you have a breweries for ol 'Joe the Wisconsin old sled guy?????😢😊
good day sir! I'll definitely tip one back for ya 🍻 cheers to ol ' Wisconsin Joe
Thank you sir! Behind every sledder is a can of brewskie and a great honey like yours!!! Miss my beer but still have 4 sleds!!!😊🎉
ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK BOTH HOLES🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😆YOUR AN ANIMAL BUDDY GOOD TIMES CHEERS PETE 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
haha cheers! 🤣🍻
Let's get Pete to 20k subs!!! LETS GO!!!
🍻
Your lucky you have a women that enjoys winter sports. So many women hate the winter toys taking away some of the enjoyment of snow or ice. How are your feeling about the takeover of 4-stokes in the industry? I find 2 strokes so easy to rebuild if need be.👍
thank you! I am very lucky to have a woman as wonderful as Kristina! and the 4 strokes are awesome with the combination of fuel economy and power but ya can't deny the awesome sound and feel of a 2 stroke! especially now that they are all coming out with turbos!! 🍻
That's a shame they went to the nickasil bore on the fan engines. Go back a couple years earlier and they still had the old Fuji engines that look like they got pulled out of an early 70s Polaris. Not to mention the mono head and head gasket, not a plan. Tough to justify rebuilding one of those.
NICE ONE 😂
. Cheers from
Manitoba
Nice one! cheers Manitoba 🍻
GREAT CONTENT PER USUAL 👌
thank you! 🍻
You da man Pete!
thank you! 🍻
Are Polaris really inferior or is this more like Chevy vs Ford?
Common problem with those 550's! They run lean and blow. Need jetting to richen mixture or else it'll blow again! Too bad cause they're nice sleds but you couldn't give me one!
Lmfao Palmer….. funny as hell….. you’d fit in well with my riding buddies
haha cheers 🍻
Hey Pete I'm pretty sure that those aftermarket gas gauges do spin around on the inside, but hey who knows you might possibly break it
haha yeah they might, but my luck I'd probably break it 🤣🍻
Surprise a 550 Polaris blown up...
Great job Pete
😊 nice one Palmer😉
🤣🍻
🔥pretty sure the arrow/ notch on top of piston go to exhaust side. Looks like on the blown cylinder arrow towards intake? 🔥great video, if the trailer is a rocking don’t come a knocking 😂🔥👊🔥🏍⚙️🔨
cheers! 🤣🍻
