Hi Guys,
I think that I have made my mind up to get rid of the Mach. Seems like whenever there is snow on the ground something is wrong with it. I can't do my own work, and don't know a whole lot about sleds so I think it is best that I stay away from the triples. Don't get me wrong, I love the sled when it is running good, but it's really finicky.
Anyway, I think I have narrowed down my choices to two. What would you rather have, a '99 MXZ 670 H.O. or a 2000 (or maybe newer) MXZ 700?
I mainly trail ride, but always seem to find myself drag racing with my buddies at the end of the ride (mainly a Formula Z 670 and a 700 Wildcat).
Also, Please keep in mind that I do have a budget. I am sure that the MXZ 700 is the better overall machine since it is in the ZX chassis and is pretty close to the 670 performance wise (heard the 670 is a hair faster). So the $1500 or so I would save by getting the 670 counts for something.
I'm kinda leaning towards the 700. I haven't ridden anything in the ZX chassis, but I have ridden my buddies '98 Formula Z which is the same chasis as the 670 (is that S2000?). I think the ZX is sharper looking, and the look of the 670 doesn't really turn me on, but that is just minor.
Also, is there anything different between the Tony Haikonen addition MXZ 670 H.O. or is it the same as the regular H.O. ?
One other thing that I am still thinking about is an MXZX 440. I don't know if I will be able to find a decent one around here in my price range, and the whole mixing the gas could get annoying (I have to do it on my ATV and it is sickening when you are in a hurry). Also, like a few people told me before, the other sleds a are a little bit more diverse which is nice.
Or do you think I should just keep my Mach?
Any info or opinions you could give me would be great. Thanks for the help.
