There is a little button on the top right hand corner of the reply box that says "spell check".....

Whatever sled you choose I would not be happy with losing a month of riding. You say it's okay? If I had a machine with 10 miles on it and it broke and I was out for a month I would not be okay with it. You may have a backup machine to ride, the majority don't and would be SOL.

Thanks Dustin. I don't know why either??? Seriously.... I have always loved Doo!!! But IMO the XP's suck ass!!! ( and I can say ASS, because you ALL have posted worse :D )
But after reading this site for countless hours, I don't think I'd ever own another Doo. Because for me...... Doolaide = Dudelaide :wetpants:
I can't get over the obtuse writing of some!!! And not speaking as a Super Mod.

Amen. Obtuse is an understatement.

thats what cracks me up is how lenient some people are. oh your 15,000$ sled broke on the first ride out? no problem if its down for a month..NOT OKAY if it was my machine.

Had a polaris good sled but it was junk bought doo good sled but it was junk got rid of doo bought new doo its junk too but you know what its my junk and I like it. Buy what you want what you perfer cause they all have issues, they all break and they are built to last for a couple seasons and then toss them except for yamaha but they weigh as much as the titanic but a little more durable then it.

Cats are doin good. The advantage of that sled is at least you've got the same hp as the Etec they do pull hard.

If I was buying an 800 I would be buying a cat or doo. It would be hard to buy an 800 and ride it stock at 140 horse. Reminds me of the early revs where they were selling bigbores like crazy to get the sleds up into the 160 range. The day Polaris can produce an engine, it will put them on top. Although they are priced reasonably.

Would you buy a sled that didn't come with or that you couldn't put a 16 wide flipper underneath?

No I probably wouldn't, I put an 16 wide on my zx, I'm a believer that it makes a differance.
