yours turbo'd? fuel controler? this is the key to keeping them alive!!!

his units, note i put plural as he has more than one that he has set up, have all of the above. the key is maintenance, warm up and good oil. imo. i know lots of guys with big miles on their poos and never an issue.

but the guy that leaves the trailer with the throttle barred before the recoil rope is even back in is the first one to beotch about poos suckin azz. they all have their issues doesn matter whos product you ride.

have fun on your new sled, the 800s are strong engines, they pull hard and not to bad on fuel/oil.

x2 we finally agree:d:beer:

I guess i'm not the only prick on here. :drink4: Bought an Assault last year, had one good ride on it. Next ride out it made it about 100 yards from the parking lot at Lucille. Hope you have better luck than I did. On another note though, 2400miles on my 04 Rev and blew up a 3rd motor yesterday.

CanAm650,
Enjoy your new ride! Over the past 25 years I've tried every brand and have had issues with them all. My conclusion is the best sled it the one that get's you back to the trailer at the end of the day. We rode with a guy on a 800 Polaris and it worked pretty good with just v-force reeds and a can on it. Have fun!:)

Where the hell were you guys brought up? Like.... JESUS! The guy just got a new sled... Probably a big investment for him......If he would have been asking... What do you guys think or this sled Im think of buying it... Then give an opinion... HE ALREADY HAS IT... Let him enjoy it. Nice Sled man congrats!:beer:

Great sled. Buddy has one, was on it lots handled great, good fuel mileage,looked good and darn it was a blast to burn donuts and pull mean wheelies. The motor ran great for him, never a burp or hesitation. Don't ride it like a grandpa. This sled is way too much fun for that. It was such a good sled that I bought myself a Pro RMK . Quite the upgrade from a modded 1998 700 RMK. Hope you enjoy your sled because it's FUN!!!.:d:d:d:d:d:d
