I would consider a 6 if I wasn't riding Maine tho. Back in NH I wouldn't waste the xtra $ on the 8 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I start riding Quebec again I would probably want a little more than a 600. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a small fleet of modded 292 Lynx's that I used to race from time to time . The Panther is a bone stock rider for when there is local snow and we just want to go horse around . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good score This is my vintage sled now, a buddy who bought it new just gave it to me, so I freshened it up. I'd take this thing anywhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its got one rash on the hood from my buddys idiot nephew putting it on its side at a road crossing. Short of that, the sled is mint for 17 years old, and only has 3000 miles on it. I may sniff around for a used set, someone must have a set laying around for short money. Drive train is all freshened from new track, jackshaft/drive bearings down to the clutch springs.
