Welcome to the site.
Your post leaves a lot to be defined.
You are saying, that basically you ride all situations?
If there is one thing I have learned , it's that you can't have your cake and eat it too. A more realistic definition is in order. Do you have a favourite sled? Like the way one looks? How do you ride 90% of the time? Are you looking for a two up or are you riding on your own?
There is incredible knowledge on this site and I'm sure we can help you out. SWRules

M1,
welcome to the site, Cory pretty much laid it all out for you.

when you get out of the witness protection program you can put in your location.

LOL Paul. Dont worry M1 he does that to everybody.

M1. Welcome to the site, it is a great source of information, operated by Corey, who keeps everything in order and is doing a great job at keeping this website clean and informative. Hope you find it very useful.


I would have to agree with CORY9 on this one. It depends on what you are doing the majority of the time. Do you ditchbang more than lake run? Are you in deep snow more than you are on the traiL? etc...

Also depends on what look you like better? Yammie, cat, doo, polaris. I know for a fact you will get MANY different opinions on what sled is better, reliable, faster, etc....

What year of sled are you looking at? I know the XC600 in '95,'96,'97? had some crank problems.

My suggestion would be the Rev-Renegade as well. You will find out that two of our members on this site (Permafrost and Machzzzz1) raced they're MXZ-Renegade 800cc paddle track against a new Mach Z 800 and the Renegade beat it in all different sorts of sprints and long-distance runs.

Go for it. They do like nice. Polaris did a good job for 2004.
