2010 Polaris IQ 550 Shift

Great sled for the price!

Like All the big reviewers say the 2010 iq 550 shift is not a strict beginner sled rather a sled that could even be good in a experienced riders hands. I own this sled and it is good.......to a point, for an example after a hard day on a hard trail you can feel the shocks getting soft and the fan co...oled motor slowing to a max speed of 60 mph. If you cross a lot of lakes this sled is not for you because of the fan motor that mabey on perfect conditions you would get 80 out of it, then apply powder and you got a mess! But if you don't cross large lakes and instead go on winding grommed trails the sled really stands out and makes you feel good. If you are new to the sport of snowmobiling this might just give you a soft spot In cash and gets you get used to these powerfull and capable machines. However some good things about the sled. The 550 fan motor delivers just enough power to spin the track, you can even pull off a wheelie to show it off to your buddies! It gives you a good feeling on the trails, with the exemption of some under steer. It has great fuel consumption! It is the perfect weight, nice and lite. This sled is good.... To a point, I believe some people are a bit adamant about this sled but it is just fine, and again the only way I can describe it is one of those to a point........ Kind of sleds Read Full Review
