Snowmobile Shootout! Old VS New

1997 Polaris Indy XC 600
2012 Polaris Switchback 800
Two instant classics go head to head in this battle of the millenniums. Not a lot of snow yet, hopefully we will get some fresh pow soon. There was a drag race planned, but the GoPro died on the way to the starting line. Watch to the end for a sick cold start bonus clip.

ive got a '97 XC 700 wonder how that would compare to a 600 triple

[@RedlineRollers]

I had a 700 rmk same year the thing was a rocket compared to the 600 triple. This xc has the high port 600 though so it was a bit better then the old xlt's. Is yours a wedge hood then? I've always wanted a wedge 700

[@ianronning4185]

@@RedlineRollers mine is a wedge with the square purple head

[@RedlineRollers]

That's a sick model, got pipes or any mods done?

[@ianronning4185]

@@RedlineRollers no mods except deeper lug and shorter gearing. Also ive heard there is only 500 sleds like mine made

m10 is not for racing.. LOL Or Big bumps. haha Your inexperience is awesome.

[@RedlineRollers]

This is not a factory m10, this a FAST m10 skid, the shocks have had the shim stacks modified and the nitrogen charge level has been increased 20 psi in both shocks for more aggressive riding, to handle some hard cross country riding, the fast skid has higher quality fox shocks then the Polaris m10 and there are tons of adjustments on the skid itself to suit each riders needs. The shock angles can be changed depending on riders weight, I have it set more vertical for a heavier rider which helps suck up some bigger bumps. A vast improvement over the oem equipped polaris skid that came with this sled. Have a merry Christmas
