Not bad for late March

Post by Blown 331 »

We had some rare late March snow on Saturday and are supposed to get 3-5 more inches on Tuesday. I just thought I'd share some pics. I thought for sure the season was done a long time ago, I'm fairly far south. Be sure to click on the pics for full images.

I can hear the BANG now when thet LF hit the snow from that jump :P

Well winter is pretty much finished where I am unless we got more snow...although where we were fishing last week they were still grooming trail....but the Ol LF made it for all 3 days of fishing and ran great...it's done me well this winter.

Good eye. Those are actually 2 different Liquifires. Check the windshield as well.

LFs are such beautiful machines. Looking to replace my Sportfire w/ a LF but am worried the LF is going to burn alot of extra fuel.

I can't comment on Sportfire fuel consption but the Liquifires really drink it, in my opinion. For a good day of riding I'm gonna want about 15 gallons on hand. At over $3 per gallon it gets expensive pretty quick. I don't really mind though, its totally worth it in my opinion.

Here's a couple more pics including one that shows both LF's at once.
