Puzzleboy Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Looks awful. I think a kid would rather ride an old Phazer...... Lol Is that their innovation for the year, copying the SnoScoot? Edited January 6, 2018 by Puzzleboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtybeacher Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 409 dry is a tad heavy for the target rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladefever Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Maybe I should have said young rider..... 550 fan engine / 121 track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irv Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Great price too, What are they thinking? I can't see many people flocking to those but I am not familiar with the price of the Yamaha/Cat ones though? My son would like to upgrade his/my old XLT, but that isn't going to happen anytime soon based on those prices! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poncho Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 The machine is aimed at next gen sledders, all the other riders are just creeps that don't ride and post on Freedomsledder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure what I would purchase for him next other than the entry level, carbed Doo 600? Of course he would like something more modern, with the latest cool suspension and all the other gadgets, but that isn't going to happen unless I find a smoking deal somewhere?

irv Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 What size is it? CC's? Likely too small for him but that price is ridiculous for an entry level sled in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irv Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 He is on my old 600 XLT SP now, not sure what is out there, other than suspension, that would be an upgrade to him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to think back to what I was on as 16-17 year old. Damn I was silver spooner like ACs kid at that age. But like Dom my old man loved every minute of it and now laughs at me for the money I spend on the latest shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats carbed. The indy 600 puts out more than your vector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electronically controlled speed set at 50 mph. Which can be adjusted as rider gains knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted the Vec is a lot heavier than the XLT but it leaves them in my dust. Not bragging, or trying to be all Yamaha and all, but my Vector works real well for a 600 class sled. He rode it a bit last year and couldn't believe the difference in power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poncho Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 It's an EVO. It means as the rider evolves they can up upgrade the power. The machine has more equipment than an ETEC 800, standard recoil....lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After we put 1000 miles on a demo the year before and loved it but he still couldn't go the 4 stroke route. Well he did and put 18k miles on that thing. Sabercat went 7k miles before I burned it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was referringbto a efi 600 indy. Same engine as my son's Rush, 120hp, he would blow past me on the lakes vs my old yami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
