Aren't you lucky. And I don't argue he doesn't put that many miles on either, he did switch to Polaris. HA!

Heard of guys having problems with cats going into reverse on there own. Known issue of moisture getting into connections. I've cleaned and di-electric greased all mine and never had it happen.

Polaris pays for his rides now Cat a year ago whoever's flipin the tab thats what he rides:d
Modman, that vid was hard to watch,,, if that's boondocking,
Sorry, just an observation.
no that was not boondocking, that was just him playing around in a little flat spot on the road. Point was to show some people that yammy's are nimbler than they think. Why was it hard to watch?
Sorry, I have more vids but I hate youtube and their crappy music, so all my video is just on DVDs. I will try and pull some of the other clips and upload them.
I've been reading this post the last couple of days and can't help but to throw in my 2 cents.
My point of view is of a person who was (and maybe still is) a Diehard Doo guy. My last Doo was a 2008 XP 800 146". Owned from new and loved this sled! This year I sold it just before Christmas in hopes of picking up a new E-tec 800. There were no E-tec's to be found in my area sooooooo, I made a drastic change and picked up a new 2011 Assault 800 155". I have not regreted making this decision for one second since then. The handling, the ride, and yes the even the motor exceed what I expected from this Polaris. I know, I know 2007-2010 POO motors are junk, but I think this new 800 is different. I am not going to sit here and say that this thing is bullet proof by any means, but so far I could not be happier. This sled is bone stock (with the exception of making Primary Weight changes for elevation) and it does everything and IMO more than what my doo did- In the hills and on the flat. My DOO cost me alot of money in after market goodies to get it to perform to my liking, My POO is bone stock, Gas and go!
And just as another note regarding all the comments on all the POO motors going down.........I had the top end on my DOO let go last season and that cost me alot of money (4 weeks off warranty and no BRP help), and now I read around this year on here and over on Dootalk and am amazed at the amount of posts I read recently of how many more DOO motors going down that are showing up yet it seems to be the POO failures that repeaditly keep getting brought up...............just sayin.

I was more referencing the fact that it is bone stock, and besides I think we have more than covered in the past the 146"x16" vs. in this case a 155"x15 in regards to floatation. Overall machine length difference is like 3 or 4".

I will agree with you on this. The 09 Summits are Harder to handle than the Pro RMKs. However if you Compare 2011 Summit to 2011 Pro RMK the Summit will throw a Chit kiicking to the Pro RMK. The 2011 Summit almost feels like a whole new Chassis when you ride it.:d
But i will agree the Pro RMK is Very Nimble.
I am running the VES Gold, not sure if that is a good or a bad thing?????

...so if your driving down the road in your truck and you smoke a rock as big or bigger than your vehicle your gonna be mad at the manufacture when you have all kinds of broken? NO! so stop bitching....sleds arent meant to be driven into rocks...
As per the ride...always ridden doo and always love them. To each their own, but from what ive seen the new pros seem to rip pretty good right out of the box! Good for polairis! They have needed a good sled release for a long time!
