Yah like wtf polaris. Step backwards on that unit.


I know one guy that has one that wanted the steel shaft and chain case.

I know 3 others that got the 2.6 for the belt drive. 1 has the 3.2 installed, 1 the 3" saw tooth and the third is putting a 3" on next year.

Hopefully polaris got their heads out of their asses and have a belt drive 3" this year with a 36" ski stance.

New doo is looking good, really good. Any word on the narrowing of the side panels for less body drag?

$15500 + F&PDI for a 165 x 3.0 pull start. There's a lot of value here. I don't mind it.

Coming from a non skidoo guy, but why don't the premier models (xrs, freeride, backcountry, or t3) get the updates?

 

[Caper11]

Unreal! They released the 850 in a sp! They will be cheaper in jan.

No 174 with the 850....

 

[High Velocity]

Looking at the specs, it seems they're only offering the 174" with the 800, not the 850. Did I miss something ?

174" is in the XM with 800 engine. Only 154 and 165 in the SP or X model with the 850. The white and orange is nasty.

Wonder why no 174?? Have to wait till next year I guess.

Why the 3.5" pitch now, that means less paddles on the snow...

I think Ill wait for 2018.

Yah looks like it. Maybe the pro riders didnt think its necessary with the new chassis?

10 lbs lighter track is why 3.5" pitch

Strange what they did with the front spindles. It looks like that would steer like crap and really torque on the ball joints but who knows.

Next year

 

[takethebounce]

SO much negativity on the forums about this sled from so many Doo faithful!

New motor, 10 more hp, 25lbs lighter, new clutch, new chassis, better ergonomics, beveled/taper tunnel, smaller seat, no more stupid S-module the overall look is growing on me.

Haven't been able to confirm pricing but based on some comments it appears on par with other new sleds. I'll be trying one out.
