Dealership I ordered threw had sold over 100, tslesds.. cut oil back on a certain amount and one motor failure out of all of them, it was not the reduced consumption sleds..

Said the one that went down was over heated 6 times, pretty good record..

Not sure if things have changed. My t3 overheat comes on at 100 degrees Celsius. I’m not saying that’s a bad number to kick the dummy light. I just don’t think kicking the light on 6 times if you stop when it comes on. Will cause the engine any internal damage.

I seen this last week there is two over heat codes that come up.. one says Over heat and the other severe over heat that does not allow machine to rev up

Pretty sure he was referring to latter

As for the sleds in revy, Facebook group and I recall this happened back a few years and it was fuel Purchased at same supplier

2 year warranty sucks
Track that falls apart sucks
Skid that cant hold the power sucks
Seat sucks
Price sucks
Clutch calibration sucks
If u are fine with that, the rest of the sled is awesome . I don't see any other sled out there that can compete stock for stock. Its at a different level. Booooooost

2 year warranty sucks - its 3 years

Track that falls apart sucks - keep it less than 80/kmh on the trail and dont drive like an azzhat and they can actualy last quite long, they are light but certainly could be more durable, that being said who wants a heavier track?

Skid that cant hold the power sucks - Not sure what this means i havent broken a skid yet from the power? these arent built for straight up climbing all day, they are built for technical riding and a light front end to maneuver in the trees properly. if you want a skid that goes straight up and doesnt wheelie thats on you. Most of us dont want that.

Seat sucks - yep sure does for sitting down, but again it sure is awesome jumping back and forth side to side, i wouldn't trade it back

Price sucks - Show me a sled with 165hp at 10,000ft with 3 years warranty for less than 21k

Clutch calibration sucks - It really doesnt, it works great for majority of riders, it has great belt life, great bottom end. Is there more on the table? sure there is, but as a mass produced product the calibration has to work for everyone in all regions

If u are fine with that, the rest of the sled is awesome . I don't see any other sled out there that can compete stock for stock. Its at a different level. Booooooost

but yes i agree, nothing competing stock for stock right now.

Maybe the reason Dave knows all this is they were his turbo's? He is still building turbo G4's.
That’s why they were stock 850t turboed sleds but between you and your boyfriend maxwell you guys know it all I could really care less I have one and like the sled but not so full of doolaid that I’m so closed minded not to help a fellow sledder

Give us something other than the CNN version next time. Peeps will take you more seriously.

If you have never ridden one I would suggest you try it before you buy one. They are a different animal. I do notice the added weight up front from n/a summit but that disappears once you light it up. They are lots of fun but may not be for everyone.
