No diet for Skidoo?

[oler1234]

If you take 30 -35 lbs off the Doo from stock weight
What is the cost of this weight loss program

$3000 dollars

Anyone really know

birdie

I figure I can do it for 2000 and 35lbs. Stay tuned for the summer build thread.

ya.. 10 extra hp, t motion skid to assist in making a heavier sled feel like a lighter sled, an
d that MASSIVE flipper they just added for traction. i would say they are refining and trimming the XM chassis slowly and we will continually see 5-10lb weight losses every season. and i think with this 174 3" track they are setting themselves up for adding an aditional 10-15hp out of the etec in a future realease. THAT would be a monster.

Soon doo should be onto the glue thing also. One never knows it just may stick ?

Gotta admire a guy who speaks his mind without hiding behind a ficticious name?

HaHa I was meaning that summit 1974 is not hiding behind an alter. Keeps the site entertaining I guess. Lol.

Freeride vs Summit? How much heavier? Freeride max is 154...

Skidoo builds a great sled, but to say that we dont want them lighter is ridiculous. Get a sled close to the 400lbs mark and the fun factor goes up huge in my opinion. Not saying they will get that light from the factory, but at least polaris is trying. Be nice to see doo do the same.

i dont think anyone can deny lighter is better. but at what cost and at what pain to the consumer?

ive smashed my xm off alot of trees stumps and rocks and its still ticking so can it get lighter? sure....as long as its as strong or stronger and not just on paper. the PRO RMK is not stronger but it is lighter. you can say things like the materials used and the structure design is more rigid with higher strength materials but until you start twisting, bending ,smashing ,jarring ,vibrating them around you dont know forsure.

Not sure how you figure the xm is stronger than the pro? I have owned both and I can tell you the pro has a stronger front end for sure! I hammered a lot of trees with my pro and it held up great. Bump one tree with my xm and now I have a twisted tunnel I still think the xm is a better sled all around. I would just like to see it a little more durable.

its definitely twisted...now what?? is it written off?

Have watched a couple videos on sled comparison and wet weight vs wet weight apparently the pro packs a lot more snow under the chassis up too 100 pounds + apparently and weighs the same as a Xm packed full of snow with less horsepower.. Could be a bull**** article but then again o.o

http://youtu.be/LtjsylwWboc interesting video, even the snowest editor says the doo feels the lightest over them all

I think we might see a couple guys at the end of the year climbing monster on a stock t3 174 doo next year o.o

Im gonna ride it for the rest of the year then start tearing it apart. I'm hoping it's just something in the front that's pushing that side of the tunnel up.

Monster has been climbed in the spring on stock sleds shorter than a 174.

 

[sewell386]

When your Ski is pushed back like that then your spindle is more vertical which will make your sled sit uneven

Sure hope thats all it is.
