    the new sleds look.....

    I really don't like the look of the new sleds.... I like the old sort of 'wide" look to them. The new ones are really tall and skinny, looks kinda wimpy to me I guess (not to mention ther're 4-strokes, but thats a whole other subject ).
    Does anyone else feel the same, or is it just me??

    I also like thr look of the 95-01 body styles better, a more sleek look. Especially the 94-97 zr, 98-99 sno-pro, and the 95-98 zrt body styles. here's the 98 sno-pro.

    I prefer the old sleds. So far, my favorite sled I have drove is a 19?? Moto-ski 800 Bullet

    Followed clocely behind is my old Scorpion sno pro, i sold it about 3 years ago to the shop i currently work at and they stripped it down for parts. I take a pic of the shroud, its the one i am buying for my sno pro sled.

    I wouldn't mind seeing one of the tall skinny and ugly sleds in my garage instead of this dinosaur.

    I kinda think that the older sleds look too fat. Don't get me wrong, the '98-'99 ZR chassis looks great, but I'd rather take a Firecat. The one real exception is the REV. I still think that the ZX chassis looks better than the REVs.

    I think the best looking machine ever was the 81-82 SRX and 83-88 V-MAX. Some years had better color schemes than others but the body style is the same.

    I like the looks of that Polaris Indy Sport. I guess its just me. I've owned 1970's skidoos, 1984 Arctic cat pantera and a 1986 Arctic cat EL Tigre. The only new sled I've ridden was a 1995 Thundercat and that thing was insane. 1000cc Triple I believe. I guess its time to upgrade to a new sled.
