2007 or 2006 Rev/ Need help

[palmerc]

Got 2 good deals out there for a sled....

I own a dragon and this '06 or '07 Rev would be for the wife and a back up sled for me...

Is there any reason to go with the '06 or the '07, like reliability or anything I should be looking for?

The '07 is 500 miles and $5000
The '06 has 1700 miles, alot of upgrades, no turbo, well taken care of $5400

Let me know please

thanks

As the 07 is the first year for the 800R and the reliability issues that went with that motor I would go for the 06.
I have heard that the 06 was the best Rev ever built.
I have more than one friend that had multible burn downs on their 07's unless of coarse they got the updated 08 motor installed from BRP.

If your buying an 800 I'd buy the 06'. The 07' has had nothing but problems and with only 500 miles it's going to burn down if the motor hasn't been replaced, even if the motor has been replaced I would still go with the 06'. My 07' has had nothing but problems this year. The first 1000 miles on it we're great and trouble free, but not now. If your buying a 600 I have'nt heard anything bad about the 06' or 07's. We have an 05' 600 and has been bullet proof, never had a problem with it. Hope this helped a little.

As said go with the 06. My buddie has the 07 with no problems whatsoever and over 2000Km but there have been lots of issues with the 800R as stated.
