I know this is a Polaris section, but my wife and I started on M7s (EFI) great sled. She's still on it. When it's warm, she can pull start it fine, and even cold, it's not that difficult. My only regret is no reverse. (load/unload) I'd likely still be on an M myself, but it was time for more power, and the local Cat dealer here sucks. Just my personal experience, good luck!
