alrighty. finally got to actually take the bike out and look at/over it.
these are the things I was expecting to hear..... I figured them on my own just by looking at it. its a pretty simple setup and theres not much to them. but just in case anyone else comes across this:
1. replace/check the rubber bushing on the ski
2. check tension/wear of the belt
3. check tension of the track.
4. check the shocks somehow (not too sure how) as well as the bushings in the eyes of the shocks
5. make sure the chain sliders arent worn
6. make sure the teflon slide washers on the reactor arms on the back arent worn.
7. check/replace the carbides on the ski.
8. check the sprocket on the skid as well as the 4 bearings
9. obviously go over all the bolts.
pretty simple stuff really. can probably order all wear parts and refresh the skid to nearly brand new for around $150.
