My situation is as follows, i have no brand loyalty, looking to spend between 2k-3k CAD, (i'm in Ottawa, Ontario if it matters) I don't mind going into the US to get a sled. My riding would be mainly trail ( I like ditch banging too ! ) I don't really care about how fast it is on the lake, i'm more of a bomb through the tight trails kinda guy. I just want something strong, comfortable, stable and reliable. Would also like reverse/e-start but not a must. I have been looking mainly at 01-03 mxz's and have heard that the 600 and 700 are strong motors, but my friends keep saying stay away from the 800's ( they say the cranks/bearings fail alot /shrug) Is there any truth to this ? Any and all comments are welcome !

( Previous sleds were a 1989 MX470, 1995 XLT SKS and a 1997 SX600 but I have been out of the game for a few years and am looking to get back into it )
I would like to thank you in advance for any advice and hopefully I have given enough detail about my needs/wants !

I just acquired a sled built by the zollinger race team. Its a 2009 AC m6 HCR with a turbo and fuel controller.

Ive never had a sled with a turbo before and would really like to hear what you all think I should really know. Im talking to the guy i bought it from regularly but feel like any and all the more info the better.

its got 700 miles on it and I believe it has been taken up the hills in HCR events before which does seem kinda sketchy for me but Il never abuse it like they do.

The claim is that the turbo is a pump gas turbo, and Im just wondering how much of a pain its gonna be to find fuel for it too?

Whatcha all got? ]]> General Sled Chat Rinky http://www.snowmobileforum.com/general-sled-chat/51425-2009-hcr-m6-efi-turbo.html http://www.snowmobileforum.com/general-sled-chat/51422-i-want-put-rotax-my-polaris.html Thu, 02 Sep 2010 08:52:58 GMT I just bought a 617 rotax complete set up for 75 bucks 749 miles on it and I want put it in my 92 Indy .

I would prefer a touring version and was looking at some T-660's but recently read about potential valve problems and overheating issues and the fact that they stopped offering that engine makes me leary. I want something that will last a long time, not too worried about very fast top speeds. Are the larger displacement engines better than the smaller turbo ones? I am thinking something in the 4000-6000 dollar range and 05 and up model years.

It has 3700 miles and is in completely mint condition. The track shows little if any wear. It has 3 studs per lug (I'm gonna pull out the outside belt ones) and has exactly 120 psi on both sides. The previous owner was a polaris dealer and in his 60's. It looks extremely well taken care of. I paid $4350.
