[QUOTE="TB-F, post: 843596, member: 16115"] You'r gona be surprised at the power of a 500/600 if you'v never riden a sled before, sleds just plain get up and move, not what you would expect to do on snow. For a good first sled, and yourself beeing a yamaha fan, I would look for a 2001 or newer yamaha mountian max 700. Came with a 141" track with 2" padles and a 700 triple. Now myself [I]not[/I] being a yamaha sled fan at all, I like arctic cats, (FYI snowmobilers have to be the most brand-loyal people ever) I would sugjest if you can aford it getting a 2005 or newer M7. Mine is the nicest mtn sled I have ever ridden, lays over nice in the pow, lots o power, light, looks cool and handles trails well too. Next on my list would be any year ski-doo summit REV. The REV chasis is excelent and they come in displacements from 550 fan to 1000 twin. I would ride a REV if cat hadnt come out with the M's. ski-doo is the only other brand of sled I have ever had, I had a 2000 summit 700. It was a good sled, rode nice but I broke the hell out of it rather quickly. Let me just say TRAILING-ARM FRONT SUSPENSION SUCKS!!!! avoid it if at all posible, but it wont be easy, all sleds except cats had trailing arm front suspension untill 2003, when cat's A arm patent ran out.
