Re: 2019 release dates ??

I wonder what happened to the sled rumours website? It's still up, but hasn't been updated since 2015.
They were a pretty good source of info.

I think that was run By the dealer Rexburg Motorsports.

They were too accurate and probably got their pee pee slapped by the manufacturers.

Re: 2019 release dates ??

i spoke with a dealer in bc(wont name names) that said ski doo has another big unveiling to do this year at the dealers show.
He said its as big as when they released the 850. everyone knows the way the 850(when working right) is set up for a turbo so could this be?
In my opinion, if it is a turbo, it will only be offered on the "x" snow check models. for the last 2 years was it really worth it to snow check an 850?
the only real difference was shock which most people switch out anyways and boards which i have ridden both and i dont feel a huge difference.
i am guessing they will so something to set the 2 apart besides shock and boards. turbo is my guess.

Historically the Doo dealers have no more idea what is coming at the release than Joe Blow Public. I would take what he is saying with a grain of salt. He's just trying to stir up some snowcheck excitement unless he was somehow involved in the development.

i honestly cant say i would snow check another sled even if it was a stock turbo. Its everything we have all been waiting for but will they hold their value or be the same as an aftermarket turbo. Plus the sleds gonna $21k..... fml.

If they release a factory turbo option I doubt they will offer more than a 1 year warranty that will be there loop hole

Re: 2019 release dates ??

They cant even get belts to last on the stock 850, just imagine a turbo 850. Put a turbo on at the factory and the engine magically becomes a wear item. Lol no thanks.
If you spin the clutches faster the fins on the clutch cool better. Duh
