How Much Will You Spend On It?
Step number one for any purchase is a realistic budget. You'll want to crunch some numbers to come up with a figure you can afford, but that doesn't limit you too much. Check around online for general pricing and consider a used model if new ones are too expensive. Remember also to factor in additional costs like maintenance, safety gear, accessories, fuel, and other general upkeep.
How Will You Use It?
Once you know what you can afford, it's time to ask what you'll be doing with your new snowmobile. If it's a workhorse, you'll want an option with more storage and torque, possibly with lower speeds. A utility snowmobile should also be equipped with tracks that will help it tackle tough terrain. If you want something for recreational riding, you might prefer something sleeker with better control that will handle well on a trail. And if you want to race, you'll need a more aerodynamic model that leans more on speed than anything.
What Features Will You Need?
Figuring out what you'll be doing with your snowmobile is vital for figuring out what your model should be equipped with. There are two broad categories that snowmobiles now fall into, each better at a specific range of tasks. These are divided by engine power and track length.
Snowmobile engines are either two-stroke or four-stroke engines. Two-stroke engines provide a higher power-to-weight ratio, but the power has a narrower range. These are also lighter and more compact, great for a light-weight vehicle. Four-stroke engines are heavier and bulkier, but provide a wider range of power.
Track length determines what terrain your snowmobile can handle. Shorter tracks are best on smooth and even terrain like a race track or trail. Longer tracks are better at bumpy and messy terrain and tend to be better with traction and flotation.
Now that you know your budget, what you'll use your snowmobile for, and what features that use requires, it's time to shop!
