I was wondering what your guys opinion is of the 600 switchback? It only as a 136" 1 1/4" track but other than that?

what are you gonna use it for?? It would be a good ditch banging and it wouldn't be to bad in the mountains just make sure you don't drop into a bowl that you wouldn't get out of. get a leased a 2" track if your going to the rock.

you better off to set yourself up now for mountains cause a mountain sled can be ridden on the trail where a trail sled like the one you arte talking about won't go far at all, you will spend all day digging yourself out, just my thoughts.

yup just go to the mountain sled, once ya hit the mountains the trails kinda suck...
but if you are doing 80%trail/flatland riding that switchback would be a great sled...

I've got a 2004 700 Switchback with a 144" track. Changed the track lug to a 2" lug and regeared, I can enjoy both worlds. I enjoy the machine, good luck sled shopping.

In my head
It's a great sled. One of the guys I ride with at Goose Tower, and have raced against, runs one and it does really well.
