xps? don't ya mean xrs?

not bashin the xrs just the track.....

everyone has a opinion which is fine.....

oh ya not a hole bunch of mountain ridin down there...... but lots of trails [ fernie - crowsnest..... u should go to like middle b/c where its at man

Youd chit your pants on the back side of the three sisters. Clearly you have minimal knoledge of the actual mountians. fernie Cranbrook Castlegar have some of the best sled terrain in the world. I hope you do end up havin the balls to show up I will have the Gopro 1080 HD to record the thrashing I will lay on you and your Rev. The valleys we drop into your 151 rev won't even make it out of so bring your wallet if you show you might need a heli to help out.:d

Have rode all over Sicamouse. I highly doulbt you have seen much of Fernie or you would know better. I'm sure there won't be any shortage of XP's willing to educate you this weekend. Pretty sure you will run into some XP's cause they will be the majority. Like I said you ever want to put your money where your mouth is I will be happy to meet you and educate you on how bad an XP will kick the revs azz.:d

i don't want some numb nutz comin in here bashin doo's etc.

i'm tryin to decide, if i should upgrade to a xp or just keep upgrading my rev. ride and power wise what's the difference?

i really don't want to read about some guys cool new pro that makes doo's look silly.... :rolleyes: so thanks for not bashing doo's and not tryin to convert me to the "dark side".
:beer::beer::beer::beer:

Go checkout Over The Top Rentals Tim can rent you a new XP for a good price and he runs a great biz. I think that after you give it a chance you will agree the XP platform is better.:d

Im HIGHLY doubting you NEVER sit down...and last time i checked you have to TRAIL RIDE to get up to the "big" mountain areas.:eek::eek:

...and usually in the "big mountains" your sitting when decending down VERY steep inclines! With your feet & legs forward more you have better support and control over the sled...:twocents:...:d:d

I don't sit down when I trail ride on the way up, and I definately don't sit down on steep descents. Too busy throwing it on its side, Carving it up.
I think the seat is for eating lunch!

I don't think you know chit. This is direct from Doo press release it clearly states that the XP came after the Rev they developed the XP chasis when they were developing the complete rev pkg. The XP was the first computer designed sled. You should spend more time here talking to Doo owners. Your comment about not being as tough wrong again read the article 37 % stronger.

We are lighter than everyone else by a lot. All the parts are different. It is not a REV but is a completely redesigned snowmobile. It is the first snowmobile designed strictly on the computer and after it was physically built loaded with sensors. Then the sensors were
read to see the weak points. You can build anything on a computer but does it really work? Ski Doo then remodified the sled. In shedding all that weight the chassis is now 37 % stronger than the previous REV chassis, noted Oitzl. You put the virtual world and the real world
together and there are components you don't need. We have taken out 106 parts out of the steering mechanism alone. Weve given 8 inches more leg room, taken the secondary and put it up above the primarily and taken the brake off the chain case and moved it right on the
driveshaft. Everything makes more sense and is simpler and less prone to problems.
In the WPSA Pro Open class Blair Morgan ran the new chassis and won Valcourt and Lake Geneva. We are in the business to stay in the business not to play games in the business. They started developing this chassis the year they developed the REV so are forward thinking.
The next generation sled is coming for you and Ski Doo are working on it right now.

We get it. You hate xp's. They aren't for everyone, I agree. But its a whole helluva lot better than the rev imo.

Better to be a tool than a fool that spews chit and knows even less. I think the reason you ride a Rev is your a block head. Like I said little soar that you thought you knew. You know what thought did? I think you did the same on this post. Cheers have the last word jacazz I know you will I'm done now point proven.:d
