I'd look over that thing good if I were you. You need to be really careful when you buy other people's mods, quite a few are sketchy half-assed heaps if they are bad mechanics or think they're good ones.

I like the sled overall. Although I am not a big fan of how the front looks. IT needs something on it. Maybe you should put on some big polaris decals along the side (Like the 2005's). That would make it look nicer.
Nice sled

It's still there, and it is bigger than mine...
I think they look really good low. It isn't that great when your in the mountains and you have snow flying at your helmate, but it still looks sick.

Nice sled. Looks great. But like said above just make sure to look over it good considering it has some pretty drastic mods on it. But ya if all good it should be a badass sled bro.

How did you break the trailing arm off so clean? the welds break? I cant say i've ever seen them break in an easy spot to fix haha

yup, I was ditch riding and was showing off for a few friends, all I can guess is when I jumped a drive way it broke. The welds broke clean, so I pulled the bushing out welded it up replaced the bushing (while I was there I figure I might as well) and kept on riddin!
heres a better pic of the trailing arm.

My Buddy did the same thing... jumping the driveway.. except he caught the ski loop in the culvert and bent the trailing arm straight down and back and it cracked in half. Seams weird that the welds would break I would have never thought.. It's a lot cheaper to fix thats forsure

looks like a great sled, but be careful if you don't want to pay for the mods. you don't have too... try lowering the price if you don't want to pay fo them all

Congrats on the buy. the only thing I would have say to do is when you get a little snow get it out on a road and open up pretty good then kill it then pull the plugs just to see what color they are. That’s one of the first thing I would do. Also make sure your oil pump is lined up for at idle there are too lines that have to line up the only reason I say that is because no one ever does it soooooo. Good luck and I hope all this makes sense and have fun.

Thats crappy advice. You should never wail on your sled right away after summer. Your supposed to take the first 15 - 20 minutes nice and easy. Your engine will last a lot better that way.
