I just don’t want to break his heart but nothing changes when your boost breaks in
Goes pretty good as is.
Snow conditions were just not there to do a comparison with the T-doo today.
Not much difference in sleds performance.
Handling is different, that's for sure.

Uh oh. Gonna get Maxwell bent out of shape.
I think Max knows how it is.
My brother is a die hard Doo all his life, no desire for anything else.
Likes his 165 850T for sure.

He takes my Boost for a ride and first thing he says is HOLY CHIT IS THAT EVERY A NICE RIDE.
Said it handled better than his Doo after only 15 minutes. More Doo-ers should get the experience.

The real question Randy.... how many spark plugs have you gone through in that 195k? 😁
None, although I have two along just in case. Snow was quite set up and surprised how easy on fuel. Burned the same amount as the Doo T and we have very different riding styles.
If the Poo stays together its a winner for sure, arms a bit sore today from hanging on.
What ever you wrap in tin foil is cooked on top of muffler in about 15 minutes.
By far best snow was well past Spirit.

does that new clutch have a bearing at the bottom? belt may have been a little tight?

I have had a clutch break when removing it from the sled. I have also seen one break after dropping a sled off the truck deck and landing on the clutch. Not common but can happen. I hope the new clutch from Polaris on the Boost turns out to be good but never had a real problem with the P-85.

Looks like matryx 850 N/A, can tell matryx chassis by clutch tool location.

I believe the Axy Clutch tool is there as well, that’s why I was asking. I haven’t paid attention to the Matryx tool location but the side panel slots are different on the Matryx. That looks like the Axy belly pan.
I’m mostly curious if it’s an 800 or 850 crank.

Good Gawd man!
Sometimes you make some real "crack" comments!
lol

He is not wrong. Torsion spring suspension give way more options in rates, and adjustment than a coil over, and they ride nicer.
The downside is weight.

Polaris has every Manufacturer beat in the functionality of their gauge. That is cool tech.
