Taking possession of the 2015 Ski-Doo Freeride 800R E-TEC 146

Finally !  We officially came into possession on our new snowmobile on a cold day of November, thanks to our partnership with Ski-Doo and TY Moteurs, BRP dealer on south shore of Québec City.  This is our 10th season of collaboration with Ski-Doo and for 2015, we get off the beaten path as we are going to test the very sexy Green/Magenta Freeride 800R E-TEC.

Every time we take possession of a new sled at TY Moteurs, one of their experts offers to new owners a 30-minute presentation of its features.  This special attention shows the customized service offered by TY Moteurs to all their clients.  It happens too many times that I meet some snowmobilers on trail who just bought their machine but do not know how to adjust the engine RPM by the pulley or simply, how to adjust the suspension.

Following this happy visit at our dealer’s, it is now time to bring back the beast to her enclosure and to prepare it for our first ride.  There are still some steps to come like the installation of the LinQ System for the fuel tank and the luggage bag.  Finally, this long wait for our first ride will give me the chance to analyse in detail the features of the Freeride and then, to present to you my pre-ride analysis of this new snowmobile.
