We could only ride these two test sleds at the same time for test purposes, but there are other good 120-horse snowmobiles you might want to compare in this category.
Arctic Cat covers both sides of this argument with the Z1 LXR 4-stroke at $10,999 or the F6 Sno Pro on the 2-stroke side for $10,299.
Ski-Doo offers the GSX LE with both a 2-stroke 600cc E-TEC engine at $10,549 or a 1200 4-TEC 4-stroke model at $11,499.
We’ve ridden all of the above and each has its benefits. The Cat 2-stroke F6 is the value leader here and delivers a mighty comfortable ride, light handling and throttle pull along with good wind protection.
While the GSX direct injected E-TEC is simply one of our favorite sleds, offering light weight, minimal oil consumption and superb handling at a good price.
