Loft, no fault on the sleds part, I need to learn how to do re-entrys sometime.


And both of those disappeared as quick as they showed up. Lol

You're not wrong - Yamaha did advertise them at 180. Independent dyno testers quickly found out that Yamaha definitely did not over-promise when they made north of 200 hp right out of the box!

if your gonna pull that card, independent dynos have found the 850T makes 178hp...

I had a king cat with 270 hp tune, CaI and straight pipe. They are not for everyone, including Me.
Pro’s: very powerful, sounds awesome in the deep snow, very reliable power,
cons: very heavy, even that much power doesn’t mask that fact, it helps, but doesn’t hide it, cannot run upside down or flopped over on its side, no oil pressure, much more fun to get back upright when you can’t spin the track. Not real great in deep snow,( granted it had some other issues that didn’t help) it would trench bad in certain situations, I suspect mostly due to trying to push that heavy front end around. Any way it had its moments, to give you an idea, I lined up with my Uncles 15’ 174 T3, hill was 3’ of fluffy fresh snow, I let him get 1/2 way up before I left the start line and beat him over the top by about a sled length, and im about 40 lbs heavier than him, so yeah they go good. Just didn’t fit my riding style ie: (upside down alot lmao) So i sold er and am going down the 2S turbo road now see what thats all about. I wish I could afford a new Doo 850T, but this ol’15 xm areocharged girl will have to doo for now.

Take this for what it is, I owned a Winder for 4 riding seasons and as some of you know it was far from stock, 270 tune and a 174 3 inch track with shocks, clutching gearing etc, the sled was amazing to say the least. Here is my take on my new doo with the 175, it is a good sled but not in the same ballpark as my Winder and I have been working on getting my head wrapped around the massive power shortage. That being said the doo handles much better and feels lighter to throw around forsure but in my opinion not a huge difference, throttle response is amazing which makes this doo deadly in short bursts but it is not fast like my Winder, like not even close, chevette vs Corvette kinda thing. I have 300 k on my doo and it is growing on me forsure and now I will start to clutch it and work on the rear suspension to improve where I can, as it stands now I have rode with a couple aftermarket turboed sleds and this machine is close, really close and in the super deep maybe better but mostly cuz its the 175 track. In summary I am not in love with this machine and I will probably be putting it up for sale in Feb/March for what I payed for it since there seems to be a demand for them and see if anyone bites ha ha, just not sure which direction to go next, that is the problem.

Good comparison, I feel the sidewinder is so under rated. The new doo rocks and you cant go wrong but for the guys always looking for more power I am not sure its enough.

Doolaide upped the alcohol level apparently lmfao. End of the day we’re all R&D monkeys for the manufacturer’s.

I haven’t ridden yet since I sold my 998 turbo cat. I know my “ new” areocharged xm isn’t gonna be the torque monster it was, but Im really hoping its a close middle ground between crazy powerful, but a pain in my arse for my riding style, and still fairly powerful but alot more flopped over and upside down friendly not to mention lighter. I went to the 998 because I too was board of how slow a 800 2S is in deep snow with my 270lbs on its back, so hopefully this turbo XM is the answer, sounds like I can expect 220-230 hp out of it at 7 lbs, so here’s hoping! Ps: i could never go back to stock. Rode a buddies 163” 850 axys back to back with my 998, that Polaris was literally like riding a half wore out lawn tractor..... yawn. Lmao. Thats not a dig on Polaris, its just the comparison from stock to 270Hp.
