The 6-7 years had a lot of advancement in sleds. There really wasn't much in the early 2000's until the Rev came along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of a first yr cat beond the 12 that was bad beond a cheep fix . that said I will never pay to test a first yr sled again ever . hence the reason I did not buy a alpha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially the 1000s the 6 and 8 did not have issues I had both . and the 1000 was the 4 weight clutch causing issues for some reason . the guys who swapped out to the old 3 weight got the normal 2509 to 3500 mi you expect out of a 1000 2st Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
