XCR INDY

Rode Indian Lake / Old Forge last weekend 2/17/24. It was good. 👍

I have these South Simcoe Machine Linq adapter brkts on one of my XCR’s. Made in Canada. They have worked as advertised and keep the bag off the tunnel.

My 12’ hybrid Snopro is 98 1/4” inside. My Matryx and wife’s new g5 Ski doo are both 48 inches wide overall. So no worries, but add some wider skis or adjust the Ras x Ski doo skis to their widest position and it will get pretty tight.

860202387 is the Ski doo part # that I used on my Matryx. Was able to use the existing bumper mount (just a longer bolt) for the hanger. I also cut the plastic sleeve and the mount down around a 1/4” to tighten up the slop in the scratcher once mounted.

Sorry 6.6 not 6.0

That’s one of the first things I noticed with my new’23 gasser 6.0. The torque converter locks right up in second gear when just running around empty. My ‘16 never did that.

Funny you say that. My brother in law has a ‘17 Sierra 6.0 2500 that is literally a grocery getter for them (he’s in construction and has plenty of trucks). Lost the torque converter in less than 40k miles.

Luck of the draw with gm transmissions. My ‘16 gasser that I had for 6.5 years plowed snow, pulled sled trailers and my Jayco Eagle 321 fifth wheel all summer through the Northeast. Never had an issue.

Sticker on this ‘23 only a tick over $50 grand, bargain IMO.

Finally got a confirmed repair date of Dec 27th for both of my sleds.

From the Whiteout vintage show last weekend. I’ve seen this sled many times, but never heard it run. IMG_1910.MOV

Yes, the only difference is the person on the assembly line this year wasn’t lining up the pre determined marks hose and case.

IMO checking the coolant line is a must do. The hose has a white stripe on it at the water pump mounting end, lining that up with the line cast on the case solves the issue. The cast line is between the 3 to 4 o’clock position. My hose was installed with the stripe at the 1 o’clock position and hose was slightly rubbing the starter brkt. Lining up the hose with the cast line gave me a 1/2 inch of clearance on the starter brkt.

Exactly ^, I just made sure the throttle safety switch is working.

Yup, I got the dreaded email. Going to call my dealer today.

Tug hill last weekend with the wife. 150 miles on Saturday and 65 Sunday before hdg home. Awesome trails and spirits. Just under 500 miles on the new XCR and it has been perfect. The 650 is as good as all the reviews I’ve read. IMO the suspension is a little on the soft side, but makes for an excellent all around trail sled.

Not sure what happened to your ecu, but I had an 09 600 and the voltage regulator failed and fried the ecu. Polaris did have a service bulletin on them back in the day. Not sure if it pertained to the 08, but something to consider.

I saw your throw back pic in another thread and noticed the chrome tank on the ‘73 Tx and wondered if it was a limited. That’s awesome👍 My uncle had a ‘73 Tx 400 since new that I was able to get from him a few years ago. Thanks for sharing.

'92 Mach 1, second new sled I had bought. I don't remember actually spring ordering it, but saw the brochure at the dealer and had to have it. Rode that Mach for 3 trouble free years, it even made a 9 day 1200 mile backpack trip from my home town in NY to Rockwood Maine and back in '93.

Awesome, the red ones were the coolest. We had a ‘99, kids rode the heck out of it. Pic is from over ten years ago, they grow up fast.

Yup, picked mine up last week. It’s so fucking ugly, almost embarrassed to post a pic of it. Glad I still have my ‘19.

My dealer called today, said my sled has shipped and in route.
