Overall Length:
Typically over 110 inches for touring models to provide stable ride and passenger comfort.
Overall Width:
Standard snowmobile width, around 48 inches.
Track Length:
Often longer than standard sleds, potentially 136 inches or more, for improved flotation and traction.
Dry Weight:
Likely in the range of 550-700 lbs, reflecting heavier touring components and 4-stroke engine.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating:
Significantly higher than dry weight to accommodate rider, passenger, and cargo.
Crash Test Data:
