Snowmobile for icefishing
#3
Cant go wrong with a phaser. No need for a long tracked mountain sled. Air cooled sleds are lighter and you want oil injection. I've owned lots of sleds and the 1980s and 90s Yamahas are very easy to start and operate. They were ahead of their time. Currently I have a skidoo 800 rev and it is not something I'd take out on the ice, it's just way to much, it belongs on a Mtn going straight up. My wife can't pull the rope due to the high compression.

Buying tip: always check compression, make sure both cylinders are the same and over 100 lbs. No triples, they sound cool but they break, a lot. Electric start is cool but batteries can be hard to find for older sleds. If it don't start first or second pull, walk away, if dude says it's easy or cheap to fix, why isn't it?
