Buying a used sled, need help.

[Marty117]

I'm looking at buying a used sled. Right now my options are:

1. 04 Summit 800 HO X w/ 4600km on it - $5000
2. 05 M7 w/ 1700km on it - $5000
3. 03 Summit 800 HO w/ 1800km on a rebuild - $4000
4. 03 Vertical Escape 800 w/ 100km on a rebuild - $4000

I'm looking for some feedback on these sleds. I know this pretty vague, but any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance,


Marty

Prices seem a bit high, where are you finding these??

I just sold my 04 Rev today with 1600 original miles and with an 06 motor. First guy that came along had no problem paying $5000. Sold in 2 days. Huh maybe should have asked more LOL

 

[Depsnolvr]

im a doo guy, but being the low mileage on the sled, i would offer a bit less for that M7 and hope he takes it

I'm in Edmonton, primarily finding them on Kijiji.

M7 for sure. Reliable, bulletproof wicked fun fun sled.

Skidoo Summit X - St. Albert Snowmobiles For Sale - Kijiji St. Albert Canada.

Check that out, just rebuilt after last season, runs great. Should be able to get it for around $3500. Worth taking a look at.

m7 best all round ride and resonible pricing for parts and services
easy upgrades for the do it yourselfer

 

[macronut]

M7 hands down!

M7 hands down!

Either the REV or the M7, both are good and have their own merits. Stay away from the older trailing arm chassis' of the 03 Summit or EDGE. You will have way more fun riding a modern chassis. As for the REV make sure that the front end and bulkheads are straight. The REV's have quite a reputation for bending like noodles.

Take advice on here with a grain of salt, you will find that many people on here are very brand loyal.

[magnet]

yep i would go with the m7 and i am a doo guy. lol. is the 03 a rev? they changed halfway through the year that yuear did they not. seems a little pricey for a zx.

 

[sledhd88]

repo.com calgary has a 07 rmk 155 coming up, probably get that thing for a decent price

 

[tex78]

[northernguy]

M7 is the way to go!

 

[slednek]

Have always ridden doo but for the mileage and comparable price I would go with the M7.

 

[Deasoninc]

I have an 05 M7 , great high miler sled , you can't go wrong.

 

[mel.h]

I'm a doo guy, but go with the M7, shouldn't pay more than $4500.00. JMO

 

[kenvb]

I wouldnt sell my 03 VE for that?

 

[mxznitrorider]

its already been said but i am a doo guy and i would get the m7 just for milage purposes lol either then that i would love to say rev but.. cant in this situation lol
