My sister in law riding like a woman went 400 miles on one quart with her 600 El Tigre CTEC. That’s almost scary. lol

My CTEC 800 goes about 500-550 miles on a gallon. Uses less than ETECs. Uses about a half gallon or so more gas than an ETEC though. Polaris kicks all our assess on gas and oil usage though. lol

I did 86 miles and used 5 gallons of fuel the other day. 20 map is scary lean in the mid range. We did 120 miles riding aggressive on our last trip and we all had 2 gallons left.

Yeah was talking to someone who got 2019 poo 850 he says it needs a gallon of oil every 300 to 325 miles.. I am like holyshit..   does that sound right to you?  seems a lot to me. 

I'm about 400-450 to gallon riding hard. Riding 30-60 all day I'm about 550 to a gallon.

Oooff.  Hearing about alotta blown up 850s this year.

 

 

The video was from a year ago. 19s are still going down no denying that. 20s have been stout. 

6k miles on 850s zero issues. Talk to me in 5 years when your cats got 2k miles on it toyler.

Yes. It cost about $425 from WE and the assault is wicked comfy smooth now.

Perfect!

No Analer bought his right from Walker Evans with the custom valving. UR big dumb. 

What did you get just the rear shock?

All the velocity shocks I serviced this fall and in December got revalved stiffer. The 2020 xcr shocks are soft.

The velocity shocks are pretty bad ass.

QS3’s are a budget shock. Like most Fox shocks they are of decent quality but still a budget shock compared to any moderate or high end shock.  

Yeah analer is a big dumb dumb. When's the best time for me to send my shocks Tom?

Guys around here have been talking about your soft rear for years bro. 

My rear is perfect now!!!

So you don't know what you're doing.

Go read the countless thread on FB and hcs about guys bitching about soft rears on the xcr. If they only knew cranking it fixed it from bottoming. You have a different skid ffs.

You sure you know what youre doing? I put softer springs on mine and it was bottoming pretty regularly. I cranked up the dampening and the low speed and now its perfect. 

The shocks shouldn't have to be cranked to reduce bottoming. You'll have that shock blown out like your bunghole in no time.

Crank up the low speed on those and it makes a drastic difference. 

I tried everything before I got stiffer springs and it still bottomed. All good now.

The 2017 XCR didn’t have velocities?

No it had the piggybacks.

I rode Drew’s XCR and no I didn’t adjust them. They felt lumberwagon stuff like every walker shock

Drew's didn't have velocitys. Mine aren't stiff at all very plush. In fact I'll probably revalve the rear and fts a bit stiff next year. The xcr indy was way undersprung I know that. Put HDs in mine and its amazing now and much easier to adjust the shocks rather then full hard on HI and LO speed.

Another good poke around the local trails and down to a club bbq at a buddies then back to a second trailside bbq for my club. 120 miles and nice to see lots of people out enjoying themselves.

Sweet fuck!  Well, you should quit fucking around and buy a Cat!  Poo and Doo suck!

Wait a minute....I went down this afternoon too!  FUCK!    

I was right on my buddies snow flap most of the way back!!!  No way he was gonna outrun me......because he was towing me!!

We just had to get my buddies 500 sabercat going after we did 120 miles then came back to camp and had half a case of beer. Went to warm it up and it was running on 1 lung. Changed a plug and pulled it over to get the fuel out of the cylinder. Got the message he made it home on 2 lungs, neddle in the carb must be sticky and fouling it up with fuel when it sits. Good times at camp.

That is a nice picture.....but sure ain't looking like a mid Feb picture looking the snow.....

Snow slides off the roof and the guy doing my driving is good at cleaning up. Still about 2 1/2 feet not like last year that's for sure. 

Ready to make like a baby and head out in a bit. 

Awesome day on mint trails all morning. Choppy in corners by 2-3pm but all in all damn good considering traffic.

Arctic Cat thought it was a great idea to be different and made that method impossible lol.

It's the exact same on a cat. Unsprung springs and bolt it into the tunnel. Take a pry bar and set the springs on the blocks. Easy and I've done it hundreds of times on my own and from the time I was 15-16. Done several trailside or in hotel parking lots.

Might do a bit.

Sure , rub it in. I put a temp sensor on my 800 last week

It's like I'm back on a cat riding around with spare parts.

Good work.

I already smoked a flap on my assault too, on my third now. The original was worthless I took it off and put a sks flap on first year. That one got chewed up by studs somehow...

I got told when I ripped a wheelie a few black pieces come flying back. Warranty one is on the way. Never backed over it.
