Powered by a liquid-cooled twin 669cc Rotax and two 40mm carbs is the Grand Touring SE. The new, 30-degree footrests add comfort, while the C-7 rear suspension and DSA front suspension flatten bumps.
Included are a bi-level seat, heated throttle and handgrips, side-view mirrors, an 11.1-gallon gas tank, electric start, reverse gear and hydraulic brake.
The Grand Touring 580 comes with a 581cc liquid-cooled Rotax and TRA Clutch. The SC-10 suspension and DSA front suspension comfortably support any riding duo.
A SC-10 suspension that provides 10 inches of travel, and a liquid-cooled, 499cc rotary twin are standard on the new Grand Touring 500. A 40-inch ski stance delivers balance and the 30-degree footrests enhance comfort.
The 136-inch long track and light aluminum chassis enhance the ride. Value-added features include the self-adjusting mechanical disc brake, steel skis, 10.6-gallon gas tank, heated throttle and grips, speedometer and tachometer.
All four fan-cooled touring models come with a self-adjusting mechanical disc brake, a 10.6-gallon fuel tank and electric start.
The 503 Touring SLE is complete with the new internal driver system with the Lite Clutch. SC-10 rear suspension provides a superior ride. A 40-inch ski stance delivers stability.
This sled has reverse gear, electric start, passenger footrests, two-up seat and large a storage area under the backrest.
The new, 436cc powerplant of the Touring LE uses two VM 34 carbs and works with the T.R.A. Clutch. The two-up seat with backrest, footrests and heated throttle and grips add comfort.
