Before the highly anticipated launch of the MX Z 670 in December of 1995, the rumormongers had a field day. What would this new sled be? What could it do? Well, it didn't take long for the lucky few who bought this limited-production snowmobile to know they had a winner on their hands. Now, in its second full year of production, you stand a slightly better chance of riding this yellow streak.

A familiar favorite is back in a leaner, lighter shape. The Formula Z is now housed in our sleek S-2000 configuration, decreasing its weight while lowering its center of gravity to hug the corners like never before.

The Formula 583 may be the best all-around value in a trail sled. The many reasons why begin with its power source, the same 581cc Rotax engine that powers the Formula Z and MX Z 583, only with dual VM38 carbs.

Check the features, sample the performance and you'll find that the Formula 500 De Luxe provides the best all-around combination of comfort, convenience, value and sheer trail-riding fun, hands down.
