our 600 edge is 380 lb.s it's can be done. and it's turning a 136" track. it's a pro-stock. here is some interesting figures. the stock rear 121" suspension weighted 57 lb.s the wahl rear skid 22 lb.s the stock track 45 lb.s the speed track 22 lb.s the suspension and track weighted less than either the stock track or rear suspension? but yes a lot of coin in this sled.

Yeah, we had pro stock wedges that weight, but these are legitimate trail sleds were discussing, not with a ultra lightweight chassis/hood, and everything else to make that weight. If you ever tried to take these sleds down a rough trail, they'd fold up.

If you are thinking '07 IQ, then certainly avoid the CFI and get the carb model instead. Otherwise that chassis and motor are good. That year had a glitch in the fuel injection mapping and there was no fix from Polaris. I had one and it was expensive for burn downs. there was a lean spot in the mid range. Had to unload it. Actually my last Polaris after 7 in a row.

F6 is a better all around sled IMO. You have to check the chassis for cracking if it's been banged around. The IQ will probably be a better riding sled though with more tame handling/ride quality for "regular" trail riding.

It's a toss up depending on condition.

those 600 edge sled always beat my doo rev 600's. liberty 600 is no joke.

the wave of "baby triples" was ebbing out when I got into snowmobiling, but I recall the srx 600 and some years of the zrt 600 went pretty good too..?
