Vehicle Information
Polaris Custom II 398 Snowmobile (1974)
The 1974 Polaris Custom II 398 is a classic snowmobile from Polaris's lineup, known for its robust design and performance in its era. This model was primarily offered with a 398cc, 2-cylinder engine, though a more powerful 530cc, 2-cylinder option was also available for the Custom II. While specific horsepower figures for the 398cc engine are not readily available, Polaris's strength in 1974 often came from its advanced clutch systems, which optimized power delivery to the track. The "Custom II" itself served as the main model designation for 1974, with engine displacement being the primary variation. No further distinct trim levels were offered beyond these engine choices. For 1974, Polaris engines were largely consistent with 1973 models, with main enhancements focused on exhaust ports. There were minimal differences in body styles and parts between 1974 and 1975 models, aside from minor details like hood badges. FAQ:
