I saw one guy with more than 1500 kms on his 850T trying for 18K......LMAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

well it sold so pretty funny.

dont really see whats hilarious about dropping the price 6k for 1500km of use but hey, if you actually priced one out and did the math 18k all in no tax is not a bad deal.

People that know me realize that my stuff is meticulously maintained, stored indoors, trailed enclosed and its never a tough sell.

I bought a holdover 2020sp 3 yr warranty and dumped a good set of shocks into it.

I think they have most of the gremlins worked out now.

I'll ride any sled, not brand loyal at all.
So how much do the good shocks cost ballpark. Which are worth it?

Re: Longevity of the 850T Motor?i

your 3000-4000+$ into all 4. Elka, Raptor Fox, etc Have had good sucess with Raptor and Stock KYB40s

So you are saying, T850 at $22,500 + $2500 for 4 year warranty + $4000 for upgrading shocks = $29,000?? Why wouldn't a guy just get the Free Ride and have the better shocks and be done with it.

Agreed, if expensive shocks were still
Important to me you can’t beat the value in the freeride. But there isn’t much wrong with the new Expert shock calibration for back country riding.

I had raptor shocks on my 2014 xm. I spent 2 winters adjusting them and never got them to ride as nice as my uncle x with stock shocks. I wouldn’t waste my money on them again.

Well at the prices being put out there better off to get a new sled.....the theory of getting an sp and upgrading shocks appears to be the worst way to go
