Polaris needs to implement an easy way to remove the fuel from their tanks, if they’re going to keep blaming it on the gas. Last I knew you can’t even get a hose in the tank to siphon it out.

That is fucked. Can't say I have any interest in a first year sled from any of the three.
The first year (21’s) had great reviews.

My dealer has a 24 XCR 650 129…still a little high on price IMO…what issues did you have with the 650’s?
Both of mine were cold start dirty running plug fouling whores. They were 3 months apart on build dates and both suffered from it. It sucked trying to get 2 of them running at the trail head. I used drag them out of my hybrid trailer instead of backing them out to avoid dropping a plug and dying from smoke. Just fucking embarrassing for Polaris.
I had no problem trying another one, but Polaris was too proud of them a couple months ago. They wanted more for a leftover 4 stroke than I paid for the 850 Blizzard. So far happy with my choice except my youngest son won’t stop harassing about it.

How are your new Doo's compared to your Poo's?
They’ve been good so far, only around 500 miles. The engines run super clean and the r motion skids ride awesome. Everything else I prefer the Polaris. Unfortunately I didn’t have a very good experience with my two ‘22 Patriot 650’s. Sold one in the fall and kinda just stumbled on the leftover Blizzard at a good price. The wife has been on a Doo since ‘21 and had just under 4000 miles on it and we planned on upgrading hers. She put around a hundred miles on both of the Matryx’s last season (keeping her Doo under 4000 miles) and overall prefers the Ski doo.

They are spot on about the Doo 600 engine, it’s so perfect and refined that it’s just boring. Oh yea they are also right , the Doo seat is too soft as well.

Didn’t I read on here a while back some guy in southern NH lived like a bum and when he passed he left the town quite a bit of money? I mean it had to have been, this is my only news outlet.

First bike was a Hodaka Wombat. It was pretty tired when I got it but still had a blast.
Wasn’t my first, but I had a Hodaka Dirt Squirt back in the day.

I know i was hoping to go this Friday to woodford but says rain . wtf.
Might try out your way the following weekend since i have to work Sat and Sun this upcoming.
Apparently Woodford area was awesome last weekend. Had a guy stop in the shop Monday and said they dropped at Mt Tabor and rode to Woodford Saturday. Sunday they left from Shrewsbury rode through Chittenden to Pittsfield. Said it was great both directions and hardly any traffic. I didn’t even think they had snow.

I remember yrs ago coming across stillwater res in a blizzard. I was in the lead and kept my eye on a spotlight on the other side. Pull onto shore , look behind me and see no one. Seems they stopped at the island and waited for it to calm down a bit.
With all the warm weather I don’t think they were even running it yet. They had just started running 4th lake last weekend.

Wife and I got out on the new sleds over the weekend. This is my first Doo in well over 25 years.
Left from the Brown farm on Cedar river rd Indian lake, rode moose river plains to Old Forge, Stillwater, over to the Pine tree in Brantingham for lunch. Back to Old Forge, where we spent the night. Next day we looped around Old Forge trails , Big Moose, back to the truck. Only 220 miles but overall good conditions.- 12

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.

Great riding in upstate NY last weekend. Only clicked off 230 miles for the weekend, could have done that in a day had I trusted the lakes on Saturday. Sunday was perfect, high temp in low 20’s with some fresh lake effect, but time was limited. Started in Indian Lake, should have trailered a little farther north.

my sister lived down the road from Rolling Wheels, we went for few years, I try to make the Fulton one every year
Wife and I went in ‘22. They just had the show a couple weeks ago. We thought about going because of low snow to ride in NY. We ended up trucking up to Pittsburg NH to ride. Either direction would be about 4 hours for us.

I used to go to that, is that what became the Great Whiteout in Fulton?
Yes I think it was called that even then. It was at Rolling wheels speedway outside of Syracuse, they just moved it up to Fulton NY.
I had an awful addiction to old Polaris sleds over 20 years ago. Still have the family sleds, but sold everything else.
