Max, you gotta do some seat time on this new Pro to truly appreciate how exceptionally agile it is.My last 3 sleds were Doos and I liked them a lot. I waited for 3 seasons for Doo to come out with a big bore in a different chassis other than the XP. It didnt happen. Then Polaris introduced the Pro and I was impressed enough to snow check one. Well I am very pleased with its performance . 850 miles this season so far. My last Polaris was a 95 storm with a 136 x 2 track. I think with the SAME rider ,the XP and the PRO hillclimbing a straight point and shoot would trade highmarks back and forth depending on which sled managed to gain that little bit of extra traction on that particular climb. In the trees, the Pro will out handle the XP easily. I also think the Rev chassis will out handle the XP in the trees too.

spent some good time on a few of them this season. they are nice sleds.

have you been on a 2011 xp? i would say it handles just as good as the pro with the new stance.

im not bashing the pro all im tryin to get accross here is that the 2012 doo comes with the factory 2.5 track which from my testing with that track on 2010/2011 sleds it will work better in the deep than the rest. handling and power is still anyones to own. a pro would be my second choice hands down.

It is indeed a very good track and any sled that runs one will work better. Not so sure about the new CE though. Time will tell. Have Fun!!!!

Not sure but I think I saw a couple posts that said new polaris 800 engines are junk and alot have blown up ? New cats well they have new options like they stop and go into reverse when ever. Dealt with this twice this year moisture getting in the conections the ones a pain behind fire wall plate. Doo's Etech has been doing well and the track change on the 12's will make them a stock stand out.:beer::d
