Secondly, I need a better set of of side running boards. The ones I have pack snow in too easily because theres no holes in them, making it tough to stand. They're also too narrow, I have a hard time getting my feet in them to stand up...
Third, is there some thing out there that would allow me to strap a couple snowboards on the back of it? Besides just a couple bungees?
And lastly, I need handlebar risers or taller bars. The stock position is just too low for me since I'm relatively tall.
Any help or guidance is always appreciated. Thanks

I can't help much with the other things but I do have some input on the two-up seat idea. When I bought my brand new crossfire 700 the ONLY stipulation my wife had to be ok with it was that it had to be able to seat 2 for when we go ice fishing, a reasonable request for sure hehe.
I shopped around to figure out how to get 2 ppl on a 1 person sled and found the following out. A complete replacement seat to make it 2-up would be VERY expensive, hard to find, and if I wanted to ride alone would look dumb or take away from the looks of my nice sled (haha I know it's superficial). I talked to my dealer and he introduced me to what's called a "seat jack". It's an awesome idea.
It's a 2 up seat with a backrest that quick connects onto the sled. It's CHEAPER than a complete replacement seat, works beautifully, and it's 100% removeable with the twist of a few quick releases. Here's what it looks like:

It takes about 2 seconds to remove it and about 1 min to attach it.
