Uh huh, torsion springs, quick clickers, drive chains, fat wide side panels, worst running boards on the market , and 40 ish extra lbs to make it last, t-motion bandaid to pretend it's a mountain chassis, uh huh, industry leading !!!!!
It's still an 08 XP, first Pro came in 2011 , first proride Cat in 2013, lots of issues with both but they're both moving ahead.
The Doo works well , and no doubt they'll be coming out soon with a new release, and maybe then they'll get to lead again for a while, narrowing ski stances and putting flex joints in skids ain't leading, it's hanging on . They're gonna lose quite a few riders this year, Cat and Poo are trying hard to gain share and it's working.
But I know it's pretty hard to see clearly if you're wearing the doogles !

Sounds like you need to lay off the keyboard and go outside. Ride what works for you, sheesh.

Sounds like you need to read back thru the thread and maybe comprehend what it's about, and I do ride what works for me, always.

Skidoo has one main advantage. 16" wide tracks. That's why I ride one. I'm 240 and it floats me better and I can keep up with the little fellas.

It was fairly constructive until you came along and had to beat your "I hate skidoo and everyone that rides them" drum.

It's an opinion , You know, kinda like you're doing now. And I don't hate skidoo, they have some great qualities, just like the other brands. It's the thin skinned, uncertain if my choice was right, it must be the greatest cause I own one, crowd that seems to get butt hurt and whiny. And if you only own one brand, how the hell could you know it was best ?

i agree, but I also think it's not always an advantage, like most features, they're good and bad in different conditions.

Blah Bla Bla chirp chirp...You are sounding all butt hurt because you had to spend 5 g's to make the cat work properly.

One breath you say you like them, next you say gimmick... What colour pills did the doc give you this time Lenny?

(P.S thanks Luke you bastard.. LOL)

Welcome to the 15/16 season... HEH HEH

I don't know Lenny personally but from seeing his posts over that last few months, I think that he owns a doo XM and a polaris.....I could be wrong....

You're pretty wrong from the little I know. He rides a cat.

I love my xm it's a nice sled, it might have "band aids" but it works. But if I bought a new sled it would be the new rmk 155. That's a 160+hp sled and with a can would be under 400#, that's crazy! Just hope there motors last I am a little gun shy because of my Dragon.

Doo has a 8 year old chass. They have to change soon to keep up to the competition.
