My Z1 Turbo is and my Sidewinder will be as well. I'd say my Z1T is right around 250. D&D claims a bit more but we all know how companies like that are. I can tell you I ride with a lot of 800's and excellent riders and the trails have to get really, really tight and twisty before you notice a difference. Reality is the 6 and 800's go much faster than even good riders can handle in most corners. I've found the weight of my Z1T keeps the front planted hard in the corners and the straights well the fun factor is just off the charts. Cornering is more about sled setup than how "fast" it is. Personally I don't like setting my sleds up to corner on rails. I like a lot of front end lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shut the fuck up already. You've already retarded up the forum enough with your political stupidity. I've raced and ridden competitive dirtbikes and snowmobiles for well north of 40 years.....and the fact remains, on a tight trail, you will wear yourself down trying to keep up with a good rider on a 600, on a tight, bumpy or twisty trail, i.e., any trail where the speed average is <60 mph.....you're toast. And if you're not, it only tells us you ride with faggots. Not this shit again. The weight difference between a 6 and 8 is insignificant compared to the power gained. If this is the case then snocross racers would intentionally make their sleds slower so its not so "taxing." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No..you are right. It's not "this shit again". Why does the weight/power ratio being brought up in this silliness? There is no question that an 800 is faster than a 600 with no more weight. Ahhhh.....you funny, silly straight-liners! You guys really can race by remote control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Skidooski Posted September 20, 2017 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted September 20, 2017 The 600 is faster then the 800 and the 800 revs quicker then the 600? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mileage Psycho Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 13 hours ago, FAT DAVE said: No...but i know a heavy turbo sled is a bear to maneuver compared too any 2 stroke on a tight whooped trail regardless of the chassis. It's more work for sure, I hustled my 2009 and 2012 turbo pigs through some real nasty shit on the bumper of the 800's, it's when I went back to an 800 late season 2014 that I said never again for a lead sled. My 600 was a hoot but with a Northern Ontario to Chibougamau to Valins and back to the truck trip this winter running with 800's I would be burning fuel like it was free on a 600, so I'm back on an 800 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem no one is talking about is its harder to control the power of a 160 or 200 hp sled compared to a 130 hp sled, so you can concentrate more on keeping it clamped and just holding on. I've seen it 1000 times. The 600 doesn't wear you down physically as fast as it would with the larger sled. Only sled I ever felt like my upper body was getting a real workout to ride aggressively was my turbo, after 20 miles in tight rough terrain, a 600 rider is just getting warmed up in comparison. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambroski Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 It's actually pretty simple. I assume we can all agree and start with this: 800cc > 600cc. The turbos add additional values but to be clear....I don't argue for anything but highly active riding on winding up and down twisty trails or "ditch banging". I have ZERO interest in fast, straight line speeds or any trail that lends itself to that. SO....... More torque/power = More rider effort. More rider effort = more rider fatigue. More rIder fatigue = more muscle decline. More muscle decline = less ability. Less abiliity = Slower speeds. mmmmmmmmmmmmm....kay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
