It has been terrible the past few years. You can't buy a sled without having major problems. Just like the old days, drive it for 3 hours and work on it for 2 days. I would say the early 2000's and even late 90's sleds were all very reliable. I put 1 belt and 4 plugs on my 2001 XC 800. Never touched anything else in 4 seasons of having the sled. Also had a 99 XC 500 and that sled was bulletproof, you could easily get 7000 miles on one now your lucky with 2000.
What? Buy a heavy Yammi dog? Naw, don't want to strain my back lifting it when it gets stuck, and have to carry extra fuel due to their smallest gastanks in class. What a joke! Suspensions that are mediocre at best to say the least.
I'll just stick with buying what works for me, and keeps on going all the time. 600-700 Polaris.
