looking forword to seeing this one
Dude, save yourself some work and just look for a fairly low mileage (they're out there) 02, 03, or 04 Polaris 700 RMK. They'll kill that XLT thing you built and you won't have to do anything besides maybe changing to a better track if you want to. 9500 KMs, really??

Thanks for the input rider much appreciated. I ran the sled all winter and loved it, yes low on power but a good rider is worth an extra 20 hp any day
I'm actually building the mod 700 doo this summer, I'm shooting a full mod build series for youtube with each process broken down into segments so people can see how to build their own mod sled. The price was right on this sled so I had to go for it.
The 700 will give me more power and still be reliable, and I am also piecing together a watercraft motor for another build - 230 hp should do the trick.
The xlt with 9500 kms ran perfectly all winter and I probably put another 1000 on it.
Thanks for watching my vids!

I say keep doing what you're doing if it makes you happy. I personally like older mod sleds a lot more than newer ones. Boosted yamis, m-sleds, pros, and xp's are all great at what they do, but they have no character. They're almost like an appliance. They make things too easy sometimes.
I've watched and enjoyed every one of your xlt videos and the 540 sled ones too. I watch most of the rest of the vids that people put up, but in the end I always find myself thinking "meh....another pro going through the trees....next"

i have to say i love your videos. i really like what you are doing here, taking not top of the line sleds and modding them to the hilt. i hope you continue to do more builds, and i cant see how companies wouldnt keep sponsoring you, these videos are addicting and fun to watch.

great cant wait to watch, id vote for the edge, i love that chassis :face-icon-small-hap

Hi Guys, Instead of the usual picture thread showing a custom build I thought I'd do what I enjoy and I made a video series on the build, it's a little rough and most days were shot after a long night shift but we got through it I'll post more vids as I edit.
Episode #1 in the series, intro!

Episode #2 700 goes to the dyno!

Episode# 3 Engine removal and cylinders come off.
