This will be the last year for the old 120 in its current form. Will be looking at upgrading the motor over the summer. What are guys running? Honda? Powerfist? Brigs? Pretty straight forward?

thanks

Consider a motor from Recreational Motorsports. A little pricey especially with the exchange rate but it will save you a lot of headaches. Pretty much drop in, change the gearing and go. Tried the Powerfist route, screwed around with the carb for who knows how long and eventually gave up. Their motors make more power than a stock 200 as well.

Sell it for the 2-2500 you’ll get and buy a actual 200.
Hand warmers, easily add thumb warmer on if not a 21’
Will go through 4x the snow a 120 will. You can ride it and tow the kids
Cruises along and can ride with big sleds.

I was really impressed with it. Towed kids on the lake in 12” of soft snow no issue. Daughter (7) was able to stop and take off out in fields up north where it was 12-18” soft on top of a base. Really just an impressive kids machine
As you can tell I quite like rippin it around too.
