Looking at 13 m1100 limited with 1400 miles roll over valve blow off valve and pipe. Mint condition $6500. Want to try 4 stroke but scared to invest $15000. Will this give me a good 4 stroke to try

Just bought the same sled this year as well and love it. Evo BRV valve, Speedwerx air intake, Jaws full exhaust, Jaws ecm reflash, clutching and slydog skis are my mods. Sled hauls azz.

I have a 2013 M1100T that I purchased new. Love the sled, it is modded (Big Chute turbo, etc.) I've had one failed hand warmer, a drive chain, and a starter solonoid. They are heavier then a 2S, but if the suspension is set up right and you don't have super aggressive skis on it, (I use Polaris Grippers) they mask the weight well when riding - I prefer the sled to my 2013 big bore 925 M800 for almost all riding conditions other then tight tree riding, but it can do it if you're in shape.
A word of caution - you need to "learn" how to ride a boosted 4S, as they act a lot different then a 2S on the snow. Throttle control is critical, and power delivery is way different then a 2 stroke - but once you learn it, you'll be stuck a lot less then on the 2S.

Biggest difference I found with riding my 14 heavy mod 4 stroke is the front suspension . Installed a 2016 front end and new Evo 3 shocks which brought my ski stance to 36 inches . Now the sled dips like a 2 stroke . Love it

good advise, legit statement. Being able to ride a 4S on day four tells you if your in shape or not. If you learn how to ride one you can make the machine do the work... Once you get into them you'll be addicted to them like a drug fiend !! Nothing like running 340+ hp in a mountain sled and knowing how to use it!!

if you had deep snow to ride an extra inch or two doesn't matter on your stance..skinny snow any sled sucks and a 4S its just that much more work to throw it around.
