Ski questions

Will the stock xp skis (pilot 6.9's??) fit an 02 700. Are these skis much better than the stock zx skis. Would the skags on the zx skis fit the xp skis? thanks

I put pilot 5.7s on my 2001 mxz. It was a perfect fit all I needed was a longer bolt. I replace all the bolts on my skis with stainless so it wont rust.

IMHO they are one of the best skis on the market and the price is decent if you shop around.

I'm running 6.9's on mine, huge improvement. The saddle is the same width, but the rubber bumper might give you some issues. My sled had tri-keels under it when I first bought it so the bumpers were different than factory.

They are a great ski, good flotation and the little bit of trail we have to ride they don't seem to be too bad. And they're cheap! so try them before you jump to a simmons or SLP.

I put 6.9 pilot skis on my 02 800 summit and really like them. Easy swap over and fit perfect. If I remember had to go to a longer bolt (not 100% sure ).I have not been a simmons fan, but the wife and kids think they are great. My 6.9 have only 1 set of carbides.
