NEED SOME HELP
ok so once i converted to ski doo we sold my yamaha and my mom sold her yamaha and she now has an 06 500ss gsx, my dad has now sold his yamaha, and gave me the chore to finding what ski doo sled would fit him the best. hes about 6 foot and 250 and we ride pretty aggressive, im thinking the 600 2-tec, i think a 500ss adr would be alittle small for him. i also think that the renagade would be good. i figured what better site could help me out with this. your input i will take into consideration. thanks in advance.

The 500ss motor is the old 600 motor, definetly enough for him....I would say a Rev chassis 600 adrenaline should do the trick....Or even a 500ss Adrenaline....The only difference between the 500ss and the 600 is the 600 is a high output (ho) motor and is an sdi (semi-direct injection).

600 SDI spanks the carbed 600. easy starting goes right to idle. 19-20 MPG.andybob600 said:The 500ss motor is the old 600 motor, definetly enough for him....I would say a Rev chassis 600 adrenaline should do the trick....Or even a 500ss Adrenaline....The only difference between the 500ss and the 600 is the 600 is a high output (ho) motor and is an sdi (semi-direct injection).

I can't wait to get my Summit X-RS 151 800R! Can't wait to find someone on a new Yamaha mountain sled with the 162" track. They will understand they made the wrong choice.BTW, what are ya goofs talkin about!?! He should be buying a yami, remember, their the best thing since sliced bread!![]()
I came across a 162" Yamaha mountain sled with a 2 rider seat option last year. Owner said it was 700lbs. He and his girl friend was struck in about 4 feet of powder. His girl friend or wife? was just standing there watching him try to get the sled back on the trail. I was on a 600 ZX summit and my son was on the old 583 summit. We stopped and help him out. Afterwards the guy actually asked us if he could ride in front of us because he didn't want to smell our 2stokes. I told him that would be fine, but if his over weight 4 stroke got stuck on the way, our old school 136" skidoos were going to keep going.
It just rubbed me the wrong way I guess. I wonder if most of the 4 stroke owners are stuck up snobs thinking they are better than everyone else, regardless of the performance of their sled.
I just looked up the weight of the APEX 150HP Mountain Sled and it weighs about 600lbs dry! I think the Summit is something like 460lbs. I just can't weight! That's like adding a 140lbs. rock with weak mid range torque.
Nice! Got a ride on one when I was around 13 or 14. If I remember right, it was Orange and had 3 pistons. Our 300cc Eskimo that had room for 3 people didn't fair too well against it.cheftim1987 said:
But I still think a Summit or Gade would be much better.
