Haha absolutely, then bitch when it gets compared to a 9R, or a turbo summit X saying it's not an apples to apples comparison....

They seem to forget that most people also compare things in $$$$

For the everyday guy dollar for dollar they are a waste of time, but for Muskoka I think it will do well for his channel. You can already see all the die hard cat guys in the comments sections jerking each other off..

It's really quite hilarious.
I love that fact that cat guys do nothing but pick apart POO/DOO sleds then get served an absolute POS and try to justify how great it is.

Looks like it would be a fun sled if it works.
I have a few buddies that have been putting 175 tracks, carbon skids, and air shocks on 165 or 154 stock turbo G5s. Even with out the weight loss, they describe the sled as a weapon. The 165 track and carbon skid on a 154 with air shocks is pretty impressive. I can only imagine how it would work with a some Ozempic treatment.

Im not sure if its just because lots of these riders havent ridden a skidoo or polaris. But my 858 vibrates so bad. Paul has ridden it a ton. Your feet and hands start to go numb. To me, that doesnt seem like a well engineered product. You can make scramble eggs by the time it gets to peak RPM and bogs constantly, even with the new flash. Time will tell, but i dont think they will last long with the bad harmonics and poor design.
You should measure the crank run-out.

In the new video where Keith Curtis bends his rails and they cut the track off and tow the sled out, I'm left asking:

Did they need to cut the track? Did they just cut a $2500 track just to make the tow job easier?

I doubt he buys his own tracks. That’s probably why he cut it. lol

For $2500 … wouldn’t it have been cheaper to get a chopper? And easier?
Chopper can’t get everywhere.

We saw Back40 recoveries go by towing a sled out of boulder today. Gotta be a reason he drove all the way to revy to recover a sled.

Guy was in toilet bowl Don’t think anything wrong with sled. Prob could have got a skilled guy to ride it out of there for half what it cost. Bak40 does do some cool recoveries tho

Muskoka has done it on one of his vids i think the time of the year really depends on how a person will fare going down there ive
Looked down from
The top and it doesnt look bad but i think thats what gets guys into trouble
I think they should send Caleb to the bottom of Toilet Bowl and do a vid of him getting out. I’d watch it lol.

I saw that vid but the conditions were favourable for getting out if your a good rider.’

I was kinda thinking to same thing, but towing expensive sleds out with other expensive sleds you can rack up $2500 in damage pretty quick.

Or maybe the track was bitched and broke a few rods in the creek ride. Haha
