Seems like it would be a really good sled and I'd definitely get one but what are the chance of them actually teaming up?

I think polaris should give full refunds for everyone who was sucked into buying there crap and yes that includes myself. Just glad I can afford doo's as well.

Why does everyone want a 4 stroke turbo? Have you ever rode one? They SUCK! Cat/Yamaha already make these turds so you have 2 different shades of brown to choose from. They're expensive, heavy on the skis, the power kicks in 4 seconds after you needed it, your riding buddies will hate you, and the effort to get them unstuck is probably double.

Don't think you'll see much change this year just graphics and maybe belt drive on assault and regular rmks. Can't ever see a manufacturer having a stock 2 stroke turbo. I think next year we will see some big change for poo. Just my 2 cents

If there is any major changes from Polaris it will come in the engine department. They will work on fixing the issues they had with the 2013. I don't think there is any way to lose more weight.

Ya I agree... I think any significant changes will have to be under the hood... If Polaris thinks they will get away with solving a few issues and some BNG for 2014 there sales will take a licken.... IMHO I think the XM has pretty much yanked the carpet out from under them this year.. I personally have never liked BRP, but that XM handles unbelievable :( I am sure that this will give Polaris a push in the right direction!!

Agreed. If the Pro didn't have the issues it did this year with the drive shaft and the belts stripping, I'm sure that the Pro and XM would have been neck and neck this year, but those issues knocked Polaris flat. I have nothing against BRP, and have thought about switching over to an XM, I'm just worried about the lobotomy that comes with that purchase. I'm concerned about the life of my engine in my 12 Pro.

Oh, no doubt the Doo has been awesome this year. I just don't want an extra 'o' turning up every time I type 'do' or 'doing'. My sled has been awesome, and it has run with only one issue, which so far my best guess had been bad fuel causing det. I'm just reading about others having engines blow up, and it worries me. If I wasn't away at work, I would be at home riding my sled instead of typing away.

I heard a rumour of a polaris first for 2014, a reliable large displacement twin..... But im guessing its only a rumour as that sounds impossible for them

If Maxwell has an issue you can be sure it will "not" be posted on here..... by him anyway!!!! lol but that being said.. I don't think the XM has had any real issues other than there fuel line fitting!!! As far as issues with my 2011 Assault... it has over 2400 miles and O... not one issue!! and so far my 2013 Pro has run unbelievably well.... I will keep my fingers crossed!! :)

Ya Polaris and big bore???? I don't think you will find anyone able to say that without a lump in there throat!!! lol But I did hear a rumor of a factory 600 two stroke turbo!!!! Can't imagine it happening but it would be a game changer for them ....
