my buddy just recently bought his first sled a 2001 xc sp 700, its in good shape cept the bellypan is cracked in a few spots il just fix it for the season then hel get a new one and a few little things need to be done. but it has no VES i was always under the impression that these motors were equiped with VES. was it just an option for the sled or what.

in 01 the 700 was originally a non-VES motor. late in the season they released a VES 700. so in 2001 there was both. the VES 700 had special graphics on it, they look like the regular graphics but in black and white instead of color. i dont' think there are very many 01 VES 700s.

Not many around. A friend of my dad has one. I thought it was special graphics edition till he opened the hood.

interesting thansk for the help. i saw one in a dealership a while ago, and then one on autotrader so at first i just thought it wasnt the original motor then decided it could have been an option but thanks again for clarifing that up.
