BIG upgrade for Noah's Trailfire

Post by Jekyll »

Noah's Trailfire got a BIG upgrade today in the form of a Sportfire/Liquifire seat. What a huge difference it made!

John's Upholstery hit another home run with this seat.

Special "THANKS" go to Keith Bylin (Norton) for supplying Noah with a donor seat foam.

Later,
Roger

*As a plus, Noah learned the "hold the snowflap up with your head while you tighten the bolts" trick.

Wow Roger & Noah,

Last year at the RWTC I send home with you a very tough looking 1980 Liquifire seat. John's Upholstery made it look like new and your right, a great upgrade to a fun (and underrated) sled.

Thanks for the compliments everyone.

Joe,
My plan is to be back on my Polaris TX for this year and use the Trailfire as my backup machine.


Rob,
Noah already rides it like it's stolen, and honestly, I'm struggling with how fast he rides. My father said something to the effect of "what comes around goes around". lol

Later,
Roger

Yup "no fear" Roger. My 12 y/o rides same way. Although he was a little hesitant on my 83' sporty today. I think his words were "dad it alot faster than i thought". He said one turn at the end of the yard he was up on 1 ski. Lol.
