  1. Never had any issues starting, idling or at any times so I’m not going to do the reflash. Have read the SA and it should help for issues like you describe though. Post in this thread if you see any other changes after the reflash. Thanks
  2. No bog, no starting issues, no fouled plugs...nothing...almost 1700 miles, original plugs, original belt. Fuel mileage is very good, oil consumption is much lower than other 2 strokes. Rear skid is great and front end is still best in the business. 850 is smooth (it has no vibration like other 2 strokes and is smooth like a 4 stroke) great power band without the boat anchor feel of a 4 stroke sled. 200 mile day on twisty trails (not rail lines) feels like nothing with this sled. The ECU reflash was not a recall and did not apply to all 850s, mine was not affected. The other 850 that occasionally rides with us also has had no issues and has close to 2000 miles on it. Original plugs and belt for him as well. No bog, no starting issues. Im sure there may be some turds (they sold a ton of the 850 engine models) but the ones my dealer sold have all been good and any I’ve met on the trail have also had no issues. No complaints from me and I’d recommend the Poo 850 engine without hesitation.
  3. Yes...and the part I posted is right in the link you posted but you conveniently posted the parts you like...but the results clearly state: Revenues from Seasonal Products decreased by $46.2 million, or 9.4%, to $443.3 million for the three-month period ended January 31, 2018, compared with $489.5 million for the corresponding period ended January 31, 2017. The decrease was driven by a lower volume of snowmobiles sold resulting from the late introduction of the REV Gen4 platform last year and from an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $3 million. The decrease was partially offset by a higher volume of PWC sold due to industry growth. I think all sled manufacturers took a beating last year which was my point...but you missed it again and took it personal....
  4. Yep, looks like they are....from BRPs Q1 report Seasonal Products Revenues from Seasonal Products decreased by $46.2 million, or 9.4%, to $443.3 million for the three-month period ended January 31, 2018, compared with $489.5 million for the corresponding period ended January 31, 2017. The decrease was driven by a lower volume of snowmobiles sold resulting from the late introduction of the REV Gen4 platform last year and from an unfavourable foreign exchange rate variation of $3 million. The decrease was partially offset by a higher volume of PWC sold due to industry growth
  5. Accolades.....good one.. Still no quotes attributed to me about the accusations you said I made... Oh yeah, there weren’t any... Don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story. Thanks for the bracket..didn’t even know you made it..Poncho brought it up..it’s held up good. DVD player crapped out, threw it away. No idea about the rifle targets? They have my picture on them? Lmao Anyways have to get back to enjoying the evening with the wife, daughter and her friend and having an after dinner drink. Enjoy your TV dinner in the basement...try not to soil too many Snow Goers later... All in good fun...lol
  6. Just finished dinner...how was yours? steaks on the BBQ. Remember I cooked dinner for you and the entire group of sledders the night I was barricaded in my room as you suggest? Guess I did it from the bedroom as your post suggests. I knew you’d respond...lol I see you didnt provide any of the quotes I asked...because I didn’t say anything...but your paranoia got the best of you (like when that mouse stole your meds) and you imagined I had said something. Don’t know why your job would be such an issue with you? Anyways...calm down son...we’re just ball busting....right?....it’s all in good fun...
  7. Anger issues...good one..lmao...you are free to ask my wife and daughter, friends and my employer (I’m a pilot for one of the two major airlines in Canada) about my personality. Poncho may not be a good reference as we are brothers and brothers always like to hassle each other..lol...but I’m pretty sure he’d give me a better reference than he’d give you. lmao. Do you have anyone who can vouch for you? I never said anything about posting your emails..that was the others..I just said don’t deny the content because we all have copies of the stuff you sent. I like your veiled threats in your post about it being against policy and meeting me in person to discuss it....you are truly a poster child for a forum troll....lmao....What do you have to hide? You said: “Shall I post your work details here, as you had started to do with mine?” What work details have I posted about you? Put the quotes in your reply please. It does become my business when friends don’t reply to your email and tell me “that lunatic Puzzler is emailing me again” When will you realize that your fallout with us had nothing to do with anything you posted on FS or about Polaris bashing (ball busting about brands has been around since I can remember) and everything to do with who you are as a person. I don’t think even Dr Phil could straighten you out..lol Anyways this could go on forever and not being a regular on FS I’ll let you guys get back to your regular scheduled programming and I’ll go back to lurking as I don’t have time to respond to every Puzzler post. I honestly do hope you get the professional help you need. Cue the typical Puzzler response.... Forgot to hit quote...so just cut and pasted Puzzlers post: What I e-mail anybody, unless I address it to you, is none of your business. You should probably worry more about your own anger issues. Or at least stock up on cottage chairs. Who denies asking you to not post personal details on FS via a private e-mail? It's against policy here, but mostly it just shows the type of guy you are, going there in the first place. I'll happily remind you in person, if you prefer that over e-mail. Shall I post your work details here, as you had started to do with mine? Have your employer evaluate your "issues", perhaps? No, wouldn't think of it. As we've all said, FS is a place of entertainment with few rules. Why you get so bent over it, is vexing to us all. You really need to chill. I know, I posted hurtful anti-Polaris stuff here. I have to live with it. For us, it's all in fun. But you seem to think I care for some reason? It is funny though, how butthurt you get when the facts about your behaviour are presented. Even Poncho thought it was embarrassing. So as to why you choose to go down that road here, is bizarre. No worries, you haven't hijacked a thing. And hopefully you've learned to cope. Sorry to see you leaving..... you've unintentionally provided good chuckles for all. Safe travels next year on the new sled!
  8. Puzzle Truce...I did not know you until you were brought into our group by Poncho. You wore out your welcome with everyone...end of story. Please do not email our friends and Ponchos wife anymore and plead your case or send me an email not to disclose certain details about you. (Everyone has kept these emails, so do not deny them) I’m done hijacking this thread, I hope you get all your issues sorted out that a few of us on here know about.... Good luck
  9. Good one Puzzler...you definitely have a vivid imagination...thank God I haven’t seen you in over a year....but my memories of your last trip, and you standing in the parking lot throwing up all over the place on Sunday morning after the mice stole your medication in the middle of the night, was enough to know I’d had enough of you. Much like the rest of the riding group had already told us they didn’t want you around. Anyways, I guess you’ve got to get to work...how is work lately?
  10. I also spent some time on 2 different 800 Doos, one had the adjustable skis, both had r motion. The r motion worked great, the seats were nice, performance good...but both felt like a heavy front end, like the 1200. I messed with the settings but could not get rid of the heavy feeling...especially noticeable when you are in the twisties as compared to the AXYS. Haven’t driven the Perry chassis, perhaps it’s an improvement. As for your recollections of that day.....the two times you took off on us, you were driving...wait for it...the XCR! The other time you passed was when we were lined up behind other sleds waiting to cross the road in Pettawawa and you passed everyone on the left and then proceeded into the intersection getting stuck in the middle with oncoming traffic both ways. The guy in front of us stood up with his arms in the air giving us the “wtf is your buddy doing?” gesture...I could only laugh as I didn’t know wtf you were doing either. I guess you’ve forgotten about other rides where you got so far behind you couldn’t even see our snow dust and ending up making a wrong turn at an intersection and getting lost...lol. We can all ride at asshat velocity when we want regardless of whose sled we are on...just don’t do it as much now as I’m getting older. Thanks, looking forward to the XC 850, hopefully it’s close to the hype..I’ll let you try it.....lol...just kidding..... of course I won’t let you near it...
  11. I happened to be along on that ride....I remember when the owner of the XCR had to pry it out of your hands to get it back as you wouldn’t even get off of it...actually having to put his hands on the handlebars to stop you from starting it up and driving away again as you did after we stopped the first time.....and that night your comments did not reflect what you’ve since said and posted... but whatever...I know what to expect from you. I too, drove the r motion and XCR and Pro S that day. Pro S rear and r motion are very similar in my opinion, XCR is stiffer, but was designed and sold as such. The archaic, heavy, darty Doo front end was no match for the Polaris. The fit and finish of the Doo is better, but Polaris has made large leaps in that area. The biggest difference was the fun factor, the AXYS chassis is fun to ride where as the Doo felt like a tank. Ive owned Polaris’s since 89 (I’m the Poo diehard in my group, not Poncho, who has actually owned more Doos and Cats then Poo) and Polaris 800s since the triple in 99, with a brief break for a 700 in 2007. I put over 5000 miles on each 800 (and 700) I had. I never had any issues, except on my 2002 800 after putting a Legend kit on it...that was my own mistake. The others were left stock with small clutching changes and never let me down. During that period I rode with lots of other types in our group and the only catastrophic engine failures happened on 670, 800 and 1200 Doos and 700 Cats. There were other issues with the Polaris’s I rode with including broken clutch springs and drive shaft bearing failures, failed stator, but the Doos also suffered from a clutch nut failure and bearing failures. The only blown belt I’ve seen since around 2000 happened on a Doo. I’m sure other guys have stories of Polaris’s having failures that they rode with...I can only report what I’ve experienced. I've snowchecked an XC850...time will tell if it’s good or not, but my experience with Polaris 800s has been very positive. I’m sure the Doo 850 is a nice machine as well, but the main difference for me since 2015 and the introduction of the AXYS has been the Polaris front end and how nicely it handles.
  12. Glad to see you made it to the reveal Puzzler. Whose your Buddy? Nice dance moves. You two make a nice couple.
  13. I used to give you more credit... Anyways....don’t work too hard this week... Back to the Super Bowl
  14. Must have had over 20 sleds cross our property (which we have allowed the OFSC to use for many years) on closed OFSC trails on Sat...good thing Constable Puzzle wasn’t there... Not trailering anywhere...riding sleds from my own property on the OFSC trail Go take your meds, you obviously missed today’s dose...and maybe yesterday’s...lmao
  15. Still trolling... I'm going riding all week...I’d invite you but you probably have to go to work
