That is a loaded question without knowing why the comp. is low.

If its just the piston and rings then it will not cost to much to fix and I would buy it for that price. If it needs jugs and/or head work then it will cost alot more.

I would price out both options to see what it will cost. Realisticaly that sled is worth $900 to $1200 so you dont want to stick to much into it or its not a deal.

Right now here it's a $1500-$1800 sled, thats just what they are going for. I may get it just as a parts sled for my XLT or just a toy to build on. Right now it's just an idea.

is the "sledhead" starting to get into your blood now that your back into it esox? smile... i know exactly how that goes lol

Yea forgot how much fun it was and since quads are worthless here and I traded mine for my boat a few years ago I want a toy again. Plus I have this speed fetish thing. Already looking for a spare sled just to have around just for different conditions. And getting the wife something thats coushy and easy to ride. Keeping the XLT just to surprise and shock the newer higher HP sleds. Funny how they kinda sneer at my old 95 but are amazed when it blows by there new fancy ones.

It might be worth your time to come up here if your looking for another xlt or ultra, because it is fairly common to find them in the $1000 range in good shape and mileage under 5000.

Ultras are not exactly cushy and easy to ride. Bigger triples are typically not the best trail sleds because of the heavier front ends. They dont ride or handle like an XLT (lightweight triple) by a long shot.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
