Hello everyone, I thought I would make my first post on this site by showing off my new sled. The seat is not installed in this pic, its just resting on the tunnel.

I agree. Nice purchase that sled looks really nice with the all black look. Hope you like it and welcome to the forum!

nice sled you got there bud

sledneck27 · 10-01-2004, 11:23 PM

Thanks guys

Cazwell · 10-02-2004, 03:45 AM

did you custom build it or order it like that or what, some specs would be real cool.

This is the sled I started with, a stock 05 600 S/B. So far most of my Mods have been cosmetic in nature. I got rid of anything that was red and replaced it with black. I ripped off all of the stickers except for the Polaris decals. The parts I have added are as follows; a Tri-City Polaris Big wheel kit, a Heel Clicker 2 Speed Clutch Kit, a Boss Lightweight Flatop Highrise Seat, Rox SpeedFX 2" Risers, and Sportech Speed guards. Thats pretty much everything I am going to do to it this year. I want to leave the engine stock for at least one season while its got a warranty. Next year I am going to turn it into either a Struthers 660, or a Fett Bros 693, and also do a few more performance mods. I'll post another pic when I am completely done with it, all I have left to do is add the black mountain strap.

Heres a completely finished pic.(It's a pretty crappy picture, I need to figure out how to use my camera a little better)

Cazwell · 10-02-2004, 06:33 PM

thats sweet, i want to get my hood custom painted.... i just wonder how much its going to run me, it has been repaired once in the front and still has some bubbles in the fiberglass, and the color didn't quiite match but you can;t tell unless you know about it, ne ideas on the price of a custom paint job?

sledneck27 · 10-02-2004, 07:30 PM

Some of the coolest looking paint jobs I've seen are from Kowboy Kustoms. They seem to have some pretty resonable prices for what kind of work they perform. I dont really know of that many other painters, but it should give you a good idea of what to expect for pricing. I personally kind of like the "minimalist" look, hence the all black S/B.

the all black look is sweet

other than that

btw welcome to the forums !!

G-ForceJunkie · 10-04-2004, 04:12 PM

NIIICE Sled!

and welcome!

Steve-o- · 10-04-2004, 10:17 PM

Nice! This is quite possibly the very first Polaris that I like the looks of! They are starting to get better! But, you can't forget the late 90's XCR's. I loved them things even though I am die hard cat. Looks nice! RUBBER SIDE DOWN!

Snow Freak · 10-05-2004, 07:12 PM

Wow sledneck that is one of the best looking sleds i have seen. That is a sweet sled! Congratulations on the new ride man!

sledneck27 · 10-05-2004, 09:08 PM

Thanks guys, I'm starting to feel a little guilty though. I think my old sled is starting to feel neglected, I tried to start it today and it gave me a hard time. She always used to start on the first pull, oh well, out with the old.

beavernutts · 10-05-2004, 09:18 PM

NICE RIDE

gEXTspecial · 10-05-2004, 09:30 PM

nice stealthy sled, lets see some pics of the old sled too!

sledneck27 · 10-05-2004, 09:50 PM

I had to track a pic down that I posted on another forum. Here ya go. I think I am going to rip all those stickers off, I might leave the HSP on there.
