What snowmobile is better for trails and sometimes of trails Arctic Cat or Ski Doo?
Posted on Mar 12, 2010 under snowmobile parts |For the most part i ride trail, ive had all Ski Doo’s and want to be sure that im not missing out
To be honest, I have never had much luck, with Arctic Cat Snowmobiles… I have had them, since 1964, and, even then, they were not much. On the other hand, I have also had Ski-Doo Snowmobiles, since 1964, and, even though, the Arctic Cats were faster, they were no good in the deep snow. They were ok, on the trails, where they were groomed, but, once you got to where they weren’t, then, they would bog down, and become stuck. Where as the old Ski-Doos, were not as fast, but, they were very good, in the deep snow, and, also where the trails were groomed as well. It seems to me, that any of the sleds that had a single cylinder engine, were better, in some respects. So, to answer your question, I would have to say… The Ski-Doo is better, for trail riding, as well as off the trail.

Have owned both Arctic Cat and Ski-Doo, since 1964, and have had much better luck, with the Ski-Doo Snowmobiles. In fact, I am now running a 1967 Ski-Doo Olympique, and, it has not been touched, except to replace the drive belt, and the spark plug. Otherwise, it is bone stock.
