Description
The Shaper Bar takes the wearbar design and performance to a new level! This bar offers a unique shape that provides much better turning than conventional bars and offers a 20% weight savings too! The concave side profile on the Shaper Bar grabs and holds snow rather than allowing snow to slip by like other wearbars. While the shape of this bar improves the turning radius of your sled on the trail, the large 60º carbide provides great control and wear on hard surfaces. The "Shaper" Bar is the original and still the best handling wearbar in the industry since 2002. Made from "cold rolled steel" to the patented shape with large 60° degree cutting carbide for durability and precise handling. The concave side profile grabs and holds snow for better and more precise turning. NOTE: Now E-coated in a corrosion-resistant black finish (may receive zinc plated bars -depending on stock). Sold in pairs.

Vehicle Information
Yamaha V-Max 700 Snowmobile (1997-2002)
The Yamaha V-Max 700, produced from 1997 to 2002, is a high-performance snowmobile, distinct from its motorcycle namesake. This model was powered by a robust 698cc triple-cylinder, 2-stroke engine, delivering an estimated 110 to 115 horsepower, making it a popular choice for trail riding and mountain adventures. Key trims included the Vmax 700 SX, known for its agile handling, and the Mountain Max 700, designed for deep powder. The 1997 model year marked a significant evolution for the V-Max 700. It introduced an entirely new trailing arm design, enhancing handling precision, and featured Yamaha's pioneering triple-cylinder engine in this segment. This period also saw the transition from Yamaha's older TSS suspension to the advanced "Pro Action Plus" independent front suspension (IFS), solidifying its reputation for reliability and performance.
