Hey everyone!
I am looking into purchasing my first sled. I am looking at two used options due to budget/affordability.
#1: 06 RMK 600. 144 track. A few broken plastic clips on side panels. Seat is slightly torn. Skis are not stock, but spindles still are. Only 1154 miles.
#2: 2008 Polaris Dragon 700 155” Track. Said to run well with no issue. Comes with under Seat Bag , Spare Belt and Plugs, Heated Goggle Storage, Muff Pot Food Warmer, Extra set of Lower A arms, Left hand throttle, track in Good Shape. Has 3832 Miles. (Post says the motor has been replaced once 3+yr ago).
The 600 is 500-1000$ cheaper, so I am leaning toward it but want to hear some thoughts about reliability before going for the cheaper deal. I am a smaller person at 5'3 and 140lb. I will be riding in Montana. Trails occasionally, and powder. I have ridden friends' sleds before, but I would not consider myself a good rider yet. My goal is to see how I like the hobby and find a sled that will get me started with the hopes of keeping it long-term if it works out.
Thank you for any suggestions/tips!
