Apologize if this is in the wrong category. If so could someone point me in the right direction.
Looking at buying an older (96-2000 ish) snowmobile. Looking at those years and sleds mainly for money purposes. I’m only going to ride up at the cabin on weekends. Just cruising the lakes and trailers for a couple hours on sat/sunday, etc. Won’t be putting on a ton of miles.
Question is. I’d like something in the 500cc range, have been looking at a couple of 500xc’s and what looks to be like a perfectly maintained 97 440xc. I’m looking for something with a little more giddy up than the old 440 super sport I rode back in the day. But wont be riding it like I’m 22 and racing all the time still. Anyone have any recommendations on a great overall model/year. I’ve heard the XLT’s (and triples in general) are a little less reliable and as I don’t know how to work on motors I’d like to stay away from that.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
