PJ,
I have done both spring, and winter, rides with krabid. The few winter rides I have been on, you see more quads on the snow trails than sleds.... I have to tell you... it is a blast, and we can ride the quads right into town as well... Bonus!!

Jack, Yup the gent from TX called and is sending his shock to me for repair, Thanks
PJ, The only shock I stock parts for is the Prairie rear seeing they have so much problem leaking the oil. When I had my Prairie I had that problem and see that they were a rebuildable shock I was determined to repair it. The problem that I run into was getting the replacement parts. Kawasaki doesn't offer them and the shock is built in Japan. If you are in no hurry for your shocks I will attempt repairing them as long as you don't want them tuned. I don't have a shock dyno. I can reseal, rebush, recharge and new oil as long as I can get the parts and info needed to do it.

Ahhh.... I was thinking maybe you did them for everything / full time. I am likely taking them out of the sled this weekend or next week and I am going to take them to Hygear.

PJ, sorry just reseal and recharge the Prairie shock at this time. I own and operate an Auto repair business and also do some work on ATVs. I find that ATV parts are hard to come by unless you want to stock $20,000 inventory. Most companies don't want to sell to the small guy and I don't see enough ATV business to stock parts. I like to order what I need when I need it.

I know what you mean. Totally understandable. You own your auto shop?
