hey guys this will be my first post, basically I am looking for the pros to tell me what I should look at when I go to pick this sled up and also what you guys think of the compression test he did for me.
Anyways its an 09 Snopro Le m8, its damn near mint with only 3000kms on it and he is letting it go for $4000 cash so he can upgrade this season. His compression test came back at 115-118, his elevation is the same as mine, just over 3000ft. I was talking back and forth with him and he has had the sled for 4 years and put 2000kms on it and has maintained it well, says the diamond drive was serviced 2 years ago but was only ridden a couple hundred kms in the last 2 years. It is completely stock and I plan to leave it that way besides minor mods like a can and pipe and possibly a new lighter seat.
If someone can tell me how to post picks ill post a couple.
So should I consider doing a top end on it for preventative maintenance or leave it for the season? whats the recommended mileage to do a top end??
Also as for the diamond drive im a little worried the sealed bearing hasn't been changed in the sled yet, assuming it wasn't is there anything I can do without tearing it apart to kind of check it? I hear by manually turning the track with your hands you can hear if the bearing is shot?
any input appreciated
