  1. So you think the handling of the G4 XRS is bad but you drive a 144" assault which is a 50/50 crossover?
  2. Yup, and adds unnecessary weight and takes away room on the running boards. I got mine for ride quality. I hate spending time adjusting a suspension on the trail.
  3. Another 900T XRS. Same sled as mine only with the goofy running board adjusters.
  4. Mine is by far the best handling sled I've ever ridden. But I rode a dealer demo yesterday and the darting was horrendous. I'm guessing the stock carbides & skis and people fucking with the suspension settings had something to do with it.
  5. I can't tell if you 2 are just trolling, or are really just dumb as a box of rocks. Wow.
  6. Those Elites bring crazy $$$. Seems like whenever I see one for sale it's $20k+.
  7. What a clown show. Butt guy is clearly the most likeable guy and I think stands the best chance to beat trump yet it looks like the libs still want the socialist NYC Jew who hates rich people.
  8. I can’t believe how much better my new XRS rides than my 2016 X. I mean I’m sure having 12,000 miles on at the end affected the ride but man, the XRS is amazing. It used to be a poser sled but now it’s great even for non-aggressive riders. But again, this is all about Ski-Jew trying to make more $ off of you by forcing you to get the premium sled. Fuck them. I really wish Polaris would make a sled for me.
  9. I’m happy with my 1.5” IR so far. I’ve had studded sleds since I started riding almost 20 years ago. Never thought I’d change. But it was cheaper and I figured my luck was running out with studs. I’m now a little more careful in corners, hills, and I make sure to get a good start loading onto trailers. Avoid the ice cobra though. Lots of guys are having cobras fall apart lately. Plus that has less studs in it. The IR is just enough.
  10. Impossible! All I’ve been told is that people from other countries laugh at us because of Trump.
  11. Seems like just hype to me. I remember when Doo revised their front suspension the last time (was it called RAS-II?) and honestly I couldn’t tell you the difference if you blindfolded me. We’ll see though. I’ll probably go to the 2021 demos here next week.
  12. My favorite time to ride is in March when it’s in the 40’s and sunny. Ridin in a sweatshirt and with my shield up listening to the motor. 
  13. Had some incredible riding this week in northern nh. Looks like it was peak though as the long range shows some 40’s for the next few weeks.
  14. For the price, nothing even comes close to chuck eye.
  15. Agreed. I think it’s all about Ski-Jew forcing you to buy the top of the line model or motor so they make the most money they can. I’m pretty sure the new gauge/gps is only available on the 850. What kills me is besides the 4 strokes not being available in a 129, you still can’t get a 900 Ace with decent quality shocks or gauges because there’s no X package. I could go on and on, but Doo is becoming an extra greedy company and I wish Polaris would come out with a motor I want.
  16. They gotta be doing something right, don’t ya think? I hate the company, but my last 3 sleds have been Doos because they make what I think is the most reliable sled and have some great dealers, at least here in the northeast.
  17. I dropped $15k on one last fall plus another $1k or so in accessories so I’m good for a few years. It is def getting out of hand.
  18. I don’t think it’s possible for Polaris to overtake Doo unless they come out with a 4 stroke or two. But if they do and it’s halfway decent, poo would def jump to #1. Come on now To buy a brand new Cat, you pretty much have to piss green. No brand neutral person is going to choose a decade old tech and still unreliable Cat over a poo or doo.
  19. Nice sled, but the motor’s already over half it’s life expectancy.
  20. I think the release sucks...yes they did some stuff...just nothing I want. The rmotion and new gauges were already great, and nav from the factory is stupid. I think they need a customization program like Polaris for spring order sleds...especially colors and track choices. And they need to shave some weight off the trail sleds. -5 lbs is not enough.
