06 600 rmk??? good or bad?

[Cujo]

Have a friend who is looking at a 06 600 for his friends and chicks to ride. Was wanting to know if this sled had all the problems that the 900 had. Should he steer clear or would this make a nice sled? It will be ridden mainly by girls and newbies. Thanks.

I have one and really like it, sure others will say the 07 and 08's are better which the did make a few changes, but the 06 is still a great sled , no it didn't have the problems the 900's had.

We have an 07 in the group. It is a real nice sled, but he is not needing one that nice for his friends. What about the belt issues? Did the 600 have the belt issues that the 900 had?

I got two of them and a 900. They have got to be one of the funnest sleds Ive ever ridden. No probs at all, the 9 made up for both though.

correct me if i'm wrong someone but this sled has a regular engin not a lay down like the 900 and polaris has goten away from. i have one and love it. i really do it;s a great sled and would highly recomend it. gave it to the wife and i am now getting the 08 800 but i think that the 06 600 144 really brought the fun back into jumping and droping stuff for me i have ridden the crap out of it and it just flat out runs good. buy it ride it and no prob.

Great sled period. Buddy has two of them. Buy it, replace the front skid shock spring (heavier) for easier steering, a can, scratchers and go wit it!!!

My buddy has one and loves it. No probs w/ it. It's a little heavy steering, but seems to be really fun riding, has a 144 2.4.
