A mini snowmobile is simply a smaller version of a full size snowmobile designed to be used by younger or smaller snowmobile riders. Most major manufacturers offer a mini snowmobile model such as the Ski-Doo Mini Z snowmobile picture above.

Mini Snowmobile Specs: The 2005 Ski-Doo mini Z sports a 120cc 4-stroke engine, a 1.8 gallon fuel tank and independent front suspension with 3 inches of travel. The mini-z also comes standard with steel skis and a 68.9 x 10 x .63 inch track. Standing just 27 inches off the ground and costing $2099.00 brand new it’s not hard to see why its an attractive model for young snowmobilers.

Mini Snowmobile Safety: Never allow children to ride their sleds unsupervised and call them on an risky behavior you see them performing. Mini snowmobiles feature just about every piece of safety equipment available and it’s important to use them all as instructed by the manufacturer. Don’t disable the mini snowmobile tether cord or bypass the speed control and know that the motor is isolated for safety reasons, leave it that way. I don’t want to sound harsh while I harp on safety but it’s no joke, it will only take one accident to take the fun out of snowmobiling forever.
