HI guys and gals I will be looking at a 2005 F6 EFI sno pro with 1800 mi this weekend.Add says in exc. cond for $4350/bo. This will be my first time buying a real sled, Ive had a few beaters in the past but nothing this new. What I would like to know is there anything particular to this year and model that I should look out for or any general info on evaluating a sled THANKS AL

FireCats seem to eat up idler wheels, so check those. Ask if shocks have been serviced since sled was new. Ask if all factory updates/recalls have been performed. You can check this by taking the sled's VIN to a dealer & have them run it.
That is a very nice sled & the price is in the ballpark!

Check out the Recall stickys at the top of the Arctic Cat forum.

Im a little nervous about going for this sled with only 3 replys. Was this not a popular model/year for the F6? Thanks AL

It will still run with the big dogs and give you a nice ride.
The EFI is the best thing about it as you will never have to mess with it and make any adjustments for temp and elevation. Just pull and go. The F6 was not quite as popular as the F7 due to its slightly tamer setup.
For the price that you are getting this for, It's a steal.
