Hey guys, I was wondering if you had any info on 2005 570's. I know they are good performers but is there anything to watch out for. Thanks, Liener

Friend has a 2004 Z570LX. Nice sled. It will almost do 100 (speedo reading). Pretty much bulletproof, just add gas and oil and go!

I have a 2005 440 LX it sits on the same frame as the 570. Just watch out for the LX they have a high windsheild that kinda sucks but is a quick fix. And i had problems with the ampage regulator it blew all my lights and my electiric start. dealer said they were having a couple problems with that. other then that i love it.

My first new sled was a 1996 Z440.I pounded the living daylights out of it for 6 years.The worst thing that ever happened was that a head stud broke and it blew the head gasket.(Repaired it for under 10 bucks)Other than that I replaced the wear bars a few times, and the rear shocks the last seaon I ran it

You should get a lot of running out of those 2 machines

i read a review on the new fan-cooled sleds in that size, ill try to find out what it was in. all i remember was that the polaris was the worst due to performance and metal skis.

Hi All,

Just bought a 2004 570 Mountain (136" track 1.250" lugs) I LOVE this sled... Outruns buddys Yamaha's until about 55 or so. Been in below zero and above freezing and it starts/runs fine in both. Simple and fun!!!

hey guys, thanks a lot for the info, also do you guys know anything about the 2002 ZR 600 EFI Cross Country sled. A dealer near me has one for $4,195 with 630 miles. Thanks, Liener

Doesnt sound like a good deal to me!! My mom got my 2005 Z440 Lx for $5,075.50 including tax registration and trail permits.

Yes that does sound like a good deal to me! Could probably get it for atmost 3900 with some talking! Will the dealer let you ride it? If i were you i would get that over then fan cooled.

i've got a 2004 z570 and so does my buddy. there really nice sleds however his "muffed" a piston after just 600 miles according to the dealership. Burned a hole right down the middle of it... but what i don't understand is they siad they didn't have any idea on how it happened, we warm up the sleds, and it was a zero degree day when it happened and we had only been riding for 20 miles. Anyways hopefully mine will have better luck, and you 2!

absoulut great sleds my dad has 1 and the only problem we had is he left the parking break on and couldn't get the track to spin but after 2 hrs. he found that out by the way that are fast as hell
