1995 Ski-doo Summit 670

[Good2Go]

I just found a good deal on a '95 Summit 670. It has 3600miles and is in mint condition. Just wondering if these had any problems? Apparently they are fairly heavy so would they be good on gas? How about going through deep snow? thanks.

I dont know in the snow...but if its like the one on my signature...not good on water... Should be much better than the old mx. Those where really heavy on the front end. Should be sa fast or faster then the mx and better in snow than the mx too. If the price and condition is right go for it!

Well thats what i'm thinking. The sled is in MINT condition. It better be faster than the MX. 200cc's more! Its a summit so it should be good in the deep snow which is what i hope.

Its a step up from the PRS chassis- not the best deep snow sled(it is 9 years old) but it still is better than any 121" sled and the 670 is a good motor-BJ

Can't go wrong with the 670, great engine.

That F2000 chassis is really heavy though, and the rear C-7 skid is a back breaker.

If you're looking to carve trails with the occasional deep snow run, you'll be fine.

Did you get the sled? I also just bought a 1995 Skidoo Summit 670, upgrading from my 1990 Polaris Indy 500. I am looking for specifications and any magazine reviews on this sled. What lug height is on your track, I believe mine is 1 1/4" but I'm not sure.

P.S. The first thing I did on my 670 is replace the recoil starter assembly with a newer version that has a larger diameter pully for the roap. This makes the 670 easier to pull over.

As mentioned, their a little front end heavy but the power and the long track make up for it. I would add a good set of, light weight wide skis and a after market silencer to get some weight off the front end. On the plus side they have good trail manors, no darting and inside ski lift.
A good reliable sled, you can't go wrong!IMO

Was the summit really hard to pull over when you got it? Mine is too. It takes two hands to pull it over and I am keen to find an easier way, was it hard to replace?

Not quite understood but the thing that it's so heavy then you better consider not to buy it. Thanks.

Welcome to the 670 two hand start club! lol.... Personally I love those engines. They have alot of potential and for a long track deep lug sled you couldnt ask for a better torque engine. Dont believe all the heavy sled rumours. That chassis and the s chassis are almost identical. I have taken the s chassis bellypan, cowling etc and used it on a F chassis. The rivet holes even line up. As for water runs.....seal the bellypan to chassis openings with silicone to prevent belt slippage and away you go. PS. most hit the water full throttle...back off throttle slowly till you find the sweat spot and youll feel the sled pull. keep it there.
