if its stock..stock track etc...its fine for trails/lakes...abit of ditch banging...if he is real light then some deeper snow and he will learn how to dig himself out which is a fun and essential part to learn...

imo a grand or under is fair with new rebuild top end..

We have a 96 cougar 550 MC ... it's a 136 and is still a pretty good sled. Both kids have learned to ride on it, friends still tag along on it.

Stock it's good on the trail and spring tag alongs, I added a 1.5" lug track, moved the steering forward a few inches ( this is done with all stock parts ) and a 2" riser and it's pretty darn capable with the kids on it. Running board traction was a real problem for my son when he started riding it, but some cheap ebay traction fixed the issue.

My son was 9 when he started on it.
