A friend of mine is selling his and his wife's sleds. She is on an M6000 Alpha, not sure what he wants for it or if it has sold yet, but can find out. PM me if you need some info and i will get a hold of him.

it’s the mid size axys pro taper bar parallel to
the post. It’s easy to flip over, but compared to a new cat or xm there’s no comparison. They are definitely easier.

That’s what I figured. Most of those sleds came with the mid height bars. Unless she is 6’ tall, I would suggest the low pro taper bars. The lower bars will make on edge work much easier. And as others have said it may take some tweaking on the suspension.

I have never found a Doo tippy but I’ve rode Polaris for so long now that I just can’t figure them out when I ride them. I look like I’ve never rode a sled before. The steering location and counter steer just mess me up. To each their own.

I am in the same boat when it comes to doo. I have tried a few new doo’s and I honestly feel like I am retarded for not being able to ride it comfortably. I know I sure as fawk look retarded trying lol so I stick with what works for me.... the brand that doesn’t have a factory turbo and who stole their steering from razor’s scooters. Poo poo for this guy.

The doo xm or g4 is got to be the easiest sled to learn on . I put my boys on them at 9 yrs old.

Yes I will. I’ve had a few guys pm me about it. I’m currently installing a 144x2” track to finish the year out. The 1.25 wasn’t cutting it for off trail. Here’s a question for you guys what is it worth? I’m not looking for covid prices ...it has around 5200km. I bought it with just under 5k. The dude I bought it from wreck the original gauge so this one only shows 350ish km.

Hard to say, usually see them from 3500 to 5500 but knowing who owns it I wouldn't be afraid to spend some money on it

Yeah that’s the range I was think....somewhere around the 4 mark. It’s a awesome sled for new riders. I love riding the thing on rough trails. lol. Smooth as glass. Very stable and easy to steer with the wide stance. I didn’t want the mtx to tippy.

Would go 151 then probably. Think to much for a 14 year old girl? Lol.

Man you could easily fit a 3” track in these things. Lots of room around the drive shaft.

The mcx kits run well? Could you run low boost without the headshim? Probably keep the wider front end for stability.

I see there’s a mpi super charger for sale.

mcx stuff works really well. As for max boost without headshim I would contact MCX
