Whether you’re using your snowmobile for towing or just scouting new spots, it’s important to have the right sled.
Let us introduce you to the two top models for your BC needs in 2008:
Polaris 800 Dragon RMK (pictured above)
The 800 Dragon RMK was designed to provide superior performance in deep snow at an outstanding price. Weighing in at a light 487 pounds, the 154 hp 800 Dragon comes standard with all the features you’d expect in a high-end sled, like electronic reverse control and hand and thumb warmers.
Price: starting at $10,599
Ski-doo Summit 800R Power T.E.K.
At 439 lbs and 151 hp, the 2008 Summit is the first-ever mountain sled to break the 3 pounds per horsepower barrier. The 2008 edition is almost 50 pounds lighter than its predecessor and even stronger. This sled comes standard with electric reverse and a Brembo racing break.
Price: starting at $12,449
