Vmax
Honestly those specs are no problem for those old quads. I rode and wrote off one many moons ago (dealer demo) and it did go like hell (in it's day it was amazing), but if it's something you want to ride anywere other than across the lake you might wanna steer away from it.
Here's one - This past weekend I was fortunate enough to demo an Apex Mountain c/w Turbo, 260 hp (pump gas) and 162 inches of track. HOLY $HIT is all you need to say to describe this badboy - actually the $$$ is enough - $14,000 + $9000 for the extras installed - this badboy hauls like nothin' you've ever seen !!! Launch is redefined.
One thing no one will tell you is how friggin hard it is to get parts for these things once they're 10 years old. I can call up my polaris dealer and get parts for a TXL in a heartbeat and anything from a Doo dealer for my Everest in a couple of days - The Yammy is a hunt, peck, scratch,
Mcguiver, beg, borrow and steal ordeal.
I own a Vmax 600 (which I bought - heck I nearly stole it - honestly by the time the dust settled I was 200 bucks on the plus side), It's a super reliable sled but stock and aftermarket parts are a friggin pain - It seems like the Lada/Yugo of snowmobiles. Plus side it always runs (sometimes cold it can be a workout to start 'til it gets a wiff of gas), bad side is the low center of gravity, low bars and again the parts ordeal. My recommendation dig up a deal on an older XLT/RMK or a Doo.
