Only year they made the 440 in the fchassis they ripped. We had a 96 when we were kids and that thing smoked a lot of bigger sleds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Posted April 9, 2020 Author Share Posted April 9, 2020 From what I can find the 94 mxzx was a dealer installed factory option? Made the 470 around 80 hp? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchy Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Just now, ACE said: What years did they make those? We’re they consumer sleds? 93-97 I think. They had a consumer variant. I think (could be wrong, Tom would probably know better) the ones with the clear tanks were the race models and not meant for recreational use.

s pump Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) 12 minutes ago, frenchy said: always like the Poo XCR 440's Had both of those. I took the 440 over a frozen dirt jump on our mx track and it landed like a dirt bike rather than a crate of auto parts. Great suspension for its day. I think it came with fox shocks. Edit: Just noticed the white one is a 440 too. I had a 600 in that style. Awesome sled. Waaaaay better than Doos in that era.

I thought I read somewhere at one point that up to 97 manufacturers had to use consumer available models to compete in snoX. @AKIQPilot probably knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had the first year liberty 440 VES motor and it was a beast. I believe the red one is a 98, may be a 97.

And I think youre pretty close on the vintage, 93-98 maybe. From what I remember dealers could buy them and sell them to anyone. They could also be ordered through the race department. These were built in limited numbers. At one point in the mid/late 90’s ISR rules mandated that manufacturers had to build a minimum number of these sleds so they would be eligible for SnoX racing. That min number started out at 300 and went to 500 by about 2002 I think. The red one was bad ass. The motor had charge ported cylinders and exhaust valves. Race head and a pump gas head. They made around 100hp with the race head and 90 with the pump gas head. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, he wrecked it. I bought it off him for my boys. It was previous year Championship sled with big carbs, head work and clutching. Thing ripped. My boys rode the skis off it literally. Wore the plastic skins right off it down to the metal web on the slp skis. Edited April 9, 2020 by s pump 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
