I've never denied an XP might take the highmark, but what I get a laugh out of is how many more calories an XP rider burns trying to keep up to a Cat or Poo in the trees. Ya, they can do it, but why exert that much energy when there are better options available ??
Sent from my iPhone when I should be working.
so why do off brand sleds always try to bring up trees, guess they have to find somewhere they can ride there sleds, ditchbangin may be one but not the steep and deep.
frick you are such a liar you'd ride skidoo if they came out with a set of pedals instead of a engine. you think you're fooling anybody with Your "I only ride the best" fag talk. I really get a kick out of the brand wars but you being MAXWELL have to take it to the next level. If you weren't out to stir ch!t why didn't you post under the skidoo section? if it was only an advisory for the team you ride with. being a good rider doesn't automatically elevate you to being a good person
Jeffg463 You're an idiot and you've obviously missed the reason this thread was started.
Quick question Quintin, why was this thread started? Maybe I'm the idiot, oh ya it's because Doo rules and everything else sucks balls, cause Maxwell says so.

I didn't create this thread to start a brand war. Jjust sharing the findings in my group.
Pg 1 Lanko.......
I think we all need it to SNOW !
Maxwell I think you should weld those pistons together and paint them gold. Make a nice trophy out of them. Than all the smack talkers can come and try to take it away. We did this when I was jetski racing and we fought over the crappy weekend warrior trophy more than real racing. I'd even like to see ride the rainbow come take a shot at it.
no problem, i realize it may be hard to see that i wasnt actually trying to stir the pot. because thats what i usually do LOL. but not this time.

now warhawk, i for one had an 08 with 5,500km on it. i also rode with ya, the 08 xp outclimbed ya by a very conservative 150 to 300 ft higher as in run out of mountain, with me or my young lad riding, it was his second time, i recall you were on a kitty, you want to try it on yer polaris, you seem to blame everything on the rental xp you bought, it may not have been looked after as well, anyway i'll still give ya a go uphill or on the flats.
LARRY HELLO LARRY. If you remember that was my FIRST time for me in the big hills in SIX years. I will be the first to say that i was not pushing myself to the limit that weekend that I rode in Golden with you,your son and MODMAN. I was just happy to be out and still have a sled to take home with me.
Last year i was in the mountians 9 times and yes i have a little more confidence in my abilitys.
ALSO the summit had a brand new engine put in it and was set up with a dj clutch kit it was GONE thru completely. Not sure if you remember i do work on these products for a living. My problem with the 2010 was it was hard to lay over (my opinion) comparing it to a 08 m8 that i had and also comparing it to my buddys 2010dragon. I LIKE the feeling of how a cat and polaris ride. Yes the polaris engine might be a ? and im hoping it will hold together for a couple thousand miles. It seems that they have it fixed for 11,12 time will tell, crossing my fingers.
In the end larry what did it cost you to put the SHORT BLOCK in yours? just curious. yours was also a rental from the same place i bought mine. Yes you got alot more k than i got out of mine and yours was a 2008.
I pulled my engine down as a percautionary thing as i know that brp has had a few issues with the 800r engine. THIS is the only reason i feel that mine didnt gernade completly. Probably if i would have left mine alone it might have made a extra 1000kms like yours.
I also would of had to POSSIBLY bought a short block for 3+ grand. I didnt feel confident in leaving it as when I go to the mountians i like to take every opertunity to make sure i have as RELIABLE equipment as i can.
Writing this with a cast on my foot. I will take you up on this offer Larry to ride with you as well. It will have to be late feb/early march
Maybe if Maxwell is reading this I can hook up with both of you and enjoy a ride. Like i said before if high marking is a way to tell who is king of the hill im not really interested. I look at the overall feel of the sled how it handles etc. This is why i bought a pro, rode one last year and LOVED the feel of the sled when i was in the trees, LOVED the sidehilling ability of it as well. Was it powerful ?? felt like it had abit more power than my 08 cat but felt really clean. The 2010 summit i had had good power and i liked it for that. i didn't like the handling of it, felt heavy up front. Yes from what i have read and heard from friends that say the new narrow front end has made a huge difference. cant wait to try one this year. As for the engine I still have a ?mark about the 800etec/ptec it is still the same crank time willl tell how it stands up.
Hopefully we can all hook up and have a ride together. would love to give somebody like maxwell or larry that ride the mountians lots my sled so they can show me what its capable of. I am just a flatlander trying to play a mountian mans game.
love this site
