Does anyone have one if so what are the pros & cons? Does it have decent power? I need help friends say get AC z370, it has bigger motor but only one carb. I figure that edge w/ 2 carbs would make the same power. Any thoughts? Sorry this is so long. ???

You could throw in the 380 MXZ also, they are all going to be about the same. They are all beginners sleds and you will probably outgrow them quick. They only go 60 MPH or so. If you are gonna get one, go with the one you can find the best price on.

i read a test in american snowmobiler and they said it was exactly like riding any other xc sp edge except with less power.they also said it was the way to go as far as the small displacement sleds go.i would take it over the cat any day myself.i know it will give you years of trouble free riding.that 340 twin has been around a long time and it is very bullit proof and as far as chassis,ride and handling you can't go wrong.so get it i would.there will be very little difference in performance of the cat and poo but i'll put my money on the edge.plus it will have good re-sale being a smaller sled.

I would stay away from the mxz 380 being it still rides on the outdated sc-10 rear suspension. They all have similar power. Just because the Cat has 1 carb doesn't mean it's slower, cause it isn't. They all get excellent fuel economy, and will provide countless hours of trail fun for beginners.
I'd go with the cat myself, the polaris second, and the skidoo 3rd.

The Z370 also has an outdated skid it is not the same as the ZRs skid
The Edge340 is the heaviest fan cool but also has the best engine plus it comes with steel skis,you win some you lose some :p
The MXZ 380 is the lightest and has RER(electronic reverse) as a bonus :sly:
I would chose the MXZ 380 2nd Edge 340 3rd Z370
Best thing to do is ride them 1st before buying :sly:
