Howdy, new member here, just joined.
This year I've decided to do some research on snowmobiles with hopes of finding one that fits my needs later this winter or even at the end of the season. Would like to find something used in about a $3000-$3500 range.
I live in Denver suburbs and frequently head up to the high country to go ice fishing. Would like to find a sled that's not too heavy, has a seat for a passenger, some good storage, has good power and does relatively well in deeper snow as well as on patches of hard ice. I don't plan on racing up the steep mountain face or bang through the snow filled ditches. I want a comfortable, dependable relatively light sled that can get me to my fishing spots and back without drama. I think I'd like the Reverse feature, because I'm pretty new to this. Electric start would be a plus but not a must for me. Probably a 2 stroke to start with. Something that is pretty easy on the fuel and has good low range power.
I'm not loyal to any brand at the moment. I've looked at some ads on local Craigslist and liked the esthetics of this Yamaha Venture.
Also, this touring Polaris looks like a pretty good sled, though it's showing some signs of neglect.
I've seen some snowmobiles on trail today with 2up setup and Wide Track - looks like that would be a useful feature to have for deeper snow on the lake.
Looking for some recommendations on Brands and Models to look for. Thx in advance - James
