before I go out and snowcheck a new sled. I''m coming off a 02 xc 700 edge. I liked the power but always wanted to go faster(don''t ask why). It''s sold and now I''ve narrowed my search down to a new F7, ZR 900, or a REV. I''ve checked out the ZR 900 and find it fits me really well(6''2" 260lbs). It fits my riding style with the ammount of torque and speed. But I also like the F 7, I''ve sat on it and I didn''t mind the seating as it was indeed different from the ZR. I figure it''s a more aggressive style. I also like the REV and have climbed aboard one. It fits me fine and I like the styling(IMO), but I can''t seem to get used to the fact the the 800 is just about the same as my xc700. Like I stated earlier, I like to hit the trails at a good clip while having some friendly competition with my friends, but I also like to rip across a lake every chance I get. Some question about the F7: 1. How will the metal steering post studs hold up coming out of the plastic gas tank? 2. With the TSL not being in the F7, how will this effect the overall ride? 3. Will there be any type of grippers on the running board? 4. How will the front A-Arms hold up to the "Tabs" holding them? 5. Why isn''t Arctic Cat giving the 2yr. warranty with this sled? 6. Is there any truth to the prototypes having bad frames or engine problems?
I''m sorry for the long post but I use these post to gather as much info as I can in order to help me in my decisions. If you weed out some of the B.S. I''ve learned more on these forums than at any dealer. I really like the F7 and it''s new look and technology but dependability wins the race. Thanks.
