New Mt. Sled - Snowmobile Forum: Your #1 Snowmobile Forum

My friend wants to get a new sled. Now last year he had an RMK 700 with the 136". Unfortunately he hated the sled because of the problems he had with the chain case going a mess. So now he's looking at either an M7, or the ZR 900. He can get the ZR for an incredible price because of being a left over and the dealer lady being his cousin. However, he wants to put an extension on the ZR if he gets it, so in the end, he's not much short of an M7 by the time he's all said and done. I think I'd go with the M7 ony because it's all set up for the mountains.

I would go with the M7 cause its all set up for the mountains.

Yep, id take the M7 too. From what i hear they are tough to beat in the deep.

Yeah it seems like it's easier than doing all the changes.

The m7 is a great sled. Id pick that over the zr any day. The only difference is the power. I ride an 800 and its about the same power as the 700 (around 140) THe difference is the torque. The m7's suffer a bit if you are a big enough guy. I like the grunt of the 800 better. and the 900's have lots o power.

I have a zr900 myself and honestly its no mountainsled and its way to torqueful then it is horsepower.thought my sled still hases the 121inch long track.i pic M7 anyday.I bet the M7 has much lighter friend end weight then the 900 and a more comfortable setup for the standing rider.

GET THE M7 GET THE M7!!!!
