As the title says. Still waiting for the call. I was hoping it would be this week. I know they had a couple sitting on the floor at riverside on Monday.

I was torn but went with lighter X pack for $2K less

I didnt need adjustable shocks or wider boards or 30lbs,, the bracing sounds nice but I can doo that,, but man I was tempted

why did you go freeride? Im short and light lol so 30lbs is like 15hp haha

When I compared pricing the x was 500 less not 2000. It was a no brainer for the extra 30 lbs in bracing and suspension. All my riding so far could use the better suspension and bracing. Plus the fact that everyone and their dog has an X. Not many freerides out there.

buddy went and got his today!!
Which dealer? I am going in there with the cheque tomorrow and ask where it is. It will be easy enough to pickup next week if I have to, but getting the cheque next week will be a pita compared to tomorrow.

Heard from a reliable source today that a truck load of new Doos was stolen in Saskatchewan. They were X's and probably can't be replaced any time soon!

How's that for a load of bad news.......

154's and 146's FR's arrived Thursday, still waiting on a few E/S FR's,and a few more X's and Tundra's though.

As for the stolen sleds, WTF are they going to do with them ? They will not run unless a dealer codes the DESS keys, all those thieves have is paperweights,just proves how stupid criminals are.

You are right. I went onto the site and do a comparable build and came up with the same numbers. I was positive when looking at the numbers the x wasnt that far off. Either way I am still glad I got the freeride.

AND.......went into the dealer today to pay for it. Sled arrived and will be put together this week. Should have it in a few days.
