i would go with the 670. they are solid motors. but are those prices canadian? i see that its miliage is in km but $3000 u.s. seems like a little much for a 98. I got my sled a 98 Formula iii 700 with 1400 miles for 2500 last year.

I would have to think that the MXZ has the better suspension, and like SEG said, fuel economy also.

My bf suggests that you go with the MXZ. He has had one for 6 years (just sold it to move up to a bigger sled) and he never had any problems with it. He says it's a solid built motor. Not sure about fuel economy because he never rode Yamahas to compair-

Should be a no brainer. Newer, lower-km's, 670 (bulletproof motor), and only 600 bucks more. I would go for the MXZ  |
