ya, I suppose in the event a guy was out of fuel I could see that.Also when being towed out by a Polaris, on the downhill sections it is higher.

on that note, 9R loves to drink fuel, maybe its from revving at 8400 but it is noticeably more than my 850ya, I suppose in the event a guy was out of fuel I could see that.

I am still on break-in so probably part of it. Finally getting back out this weekend after healing up from an injury.That's surprising, I didn't notice much of a difference from my 850 to 9r for fuel consumption, just slightly more but nothing like the boost. Feels like it uses a fair bit of oil when it's deep though. I had one day where I had to tip my sled to give gas to my buddy on a boost that was double stacking jerry's.
I'm older than Maxwell and can second that a turbo helps me get to the places my son and the other silly tree riders like to play while I drive around and warm up my lunch and keep an eye on all of them. Couldn't justify a Gen 5 though. Doesn't matter which brand it is; a turbo keeps things interesting at times.I think the G5 turbos are awesome, helps the old timers like maxwell keep up to guys like Johnny on 9R's

Does anyone know the hp of the 9R and boost?
This should get interesting quick.....

So Maxwell does it piss you off when JH schools you in the trees on a sled that you don’t know the horse power of? Asking for a friend
Back in the day people would put sleds on the dyno.
Guess nobody does that any more?
3rd party dyno results have proven to be inconsistent. What I'm interested in is what the manufacturers are willing to publish because if they are willing to put that number on the line against their reputation you know damn well its not going to read any less than that number on ANY dyno
You mean like when Doo said the 800 etec was 160. Then the 850 was 164, 14 more than the 800. Oh and had a smaller fuel tank than XM but you could actually fill it up so you got more fuel. Kind of like that?3rd party dyno results have proven to be inconsistent.
