you only live once. do it

Well.....I'm settled on a 137 now. I have come to terms with that part. I know deep down the 600 would do the job - but there is still something in the 800+ range, it's really nice going down the lake with it. The deal on the 600 is really hard to pass up. We're talking a 9-10k swing - is the extra 258 cc's "worth" that. I think so, but I'm struggling with it. Watched a bunch of Youtube videos on the 600 last night - again, realize it would be a great sled and do the job. Will I be satisfied with it? Not sure yet.     My son is on a 550/600. He's just turning 17 soon - so I'm keeping him there for a bit still while he gains more experience, but he's already talking upgrading next year ( on his own dime   )  

Age old debate of 600 vs 800.....knowing where you ride mostly, the 6 should be great in the tighter trails, but the lakes I assume might be the the issue. It seems you ride mostly alone or with your son, family, etc.....and if they are all on the same size motor, 600 is good....running with a group that all have more CC's can be an issue.   Not really a bad thing, knowing you can buy a new sled and just need to decide between the CC's and/or track length  !

Similar to truck shopping.....

3 days is perfect in my opinion. Huntsville to Quality Inn North bay ( just north of 11 & 17 junction) day 1.  North Bay to Petawawa or Pembroke day 2.  Back to Huntsville day 3.  We have done it 3 times starting at Dwight clockwise and counter clockwise.
