What is your favorite if all time sled you personally have owned? Not the best. It would make sense that’s the newest, but the one you had the most fun on.

For me. 2003 Polaris Vertical Escape

2000 Summit 700.

For the time, fun, simple, capable enough for what is now barely a crossover. Compared to the 80's and first half of the 90's, spectacular.

My current 19 cat has been fantastic. Performance, handling, durability is all better than the twelve others I've had.
Well my 99 mxz 600 was real durable too but this handles and has way more powa. The 09 summit 860 was pretty good but panneld out often.
Definitely have a place in my soul for my mach z mod sled but it only performs at sea level.

Toss up between my 96 longtrack MXZ and my 09 M8.
7,500 mi on the MXZ and 4,000 mi on the 09 M8.
Both very reliable and dependable.

Found nothing wrong with my long track 1990 Phazer II, it got really fun when I switched the stock 136x.75 with a 136x1.50 Summit track, it went anywhere I thought. Just finished another Phazer II with a 141x2 MountainMax track, still a lot of fun and goes anywhere, but this old body likes the newer sleds so the Phazer is for sale, if interested call 253 297 0153

have to say my 96 ultra mod, when it was running right, still havent been all the places that sled took me in my early 20s, lack of balls basically now that im older.
I have a replica now i take out at least once a year (spring) and its a brutal trail ride in but still puts a smile on my face on the hills. Theres just something to being lower to the ground.

My first brand new sled was a -04 PROXR 800. Wouldn't mind having one of those again as a spring sled.
Bought it brand new in the summer -05 at almost 40% off, probably the best sled deal of my life regardless of how long I get to live!.

Grew up on a 1990 500 SKS with a 136"x1.5" summit track on it, that was a fun little sled. I wish I would've bought it from my dad when he sold it a few years ago.

I also love my current 2016 Axys, thing is an absolute blast to ride

My favorite of all time is my current sled 2019 Poo 850. The motor mount system is fantastic which makes it easy on belts. It doesn't eat clutch rollers or flyweight bushings like all the 800's I've owned since 2012. It doesn't appear to hammer the ring locating pins out of the pistons like every 800 I ever rode. It launches like a freight train, floats over the powder like a dream, and handles much easier than any Poo I've ever ridden. So far it's been gas, oil, and rock and roll, just love it.

Twin pipes, Live Rear Axle M-10, 151” track, handlebar riser and Badass high rise seat.

Still the best sled I’ve ever ridden in the trail. And used to embarrass King Cats all day long.

When it comes to memories, its hard to beat your FIRST SLED.
That would be a Yamaha Nytro for me.
Certainly not the best mountain sled, but DAMN, what great memories I have of my first year of riding on that sled with my sons.

It's a tie between Dad's 1997 Polaris 700 RMK and the early 80's Yamaha Enticers. Started on Yamaha Enticers (We had a Bravo too) when I was a kid and could make those things do anything I wanted well in to my teenage years. Then Dad got that RMK when I was in my 20's. Suddenly it seemed there wasn't anywhere I couldn't go. Even today those sleds are something else.

1981 el tigre 6000 I kept that sled for 10 years of mountain riding, I cant even remember all the changes we made but it was alot. Then sold it to my cousin and he ran it for a few more years. That sled had character and went like hell. Those were the days.
