But would be awesome for Quebec Couple years ago I used my buddys sons Apex 2 long weekends that year. Conditions were fantastic and it just felt right. I could get used to that real quick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its just a matter of preference, doo might have a better one, but I would never trust their ETEC engines, again that's my opinion. Riding a procross is like riding an 03 to 07 rev imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wildcat Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 For on trail shit that isn't bumpy yeah a turbo would be the cats ass but they do legit weigh like 650lbs without a rider. I dont mind having less top end but shedding 200lbs off. I just like to be able to throw the sled around and off trail type stuff heavy sleds just wear you out IMO. We do a lot of high speed shit too but until i get older and retire from off trail riding i wont be on a 4s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved my revs. Had a lot of time and money into the last ones suspension. I liked it better than my Xp I think. But that procross feels like a full on racer ready to be beat on and take anything. I'd be lying if I said I never had to take a hammer and broom handle and bend my doos back into place every now and then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, it was THE MACHINE..don't get me wrong. But I could ride the shit out of my rev. I never quite could get the XP to handle as well. But, I also spent a lot more money and time on the Rev too. So, it may not be fair. Sleds are funny, it all depends on each individuals body and riding style as to what works best. Honestly, I don't even have enough miles on my PC to judge it against them yet other than it is stronger and I am a shy faster on it...but it definitely feels heavier, which is kind of a weird feeling because it feels just as easy to control in the twisties. Hopefully get some good time on it this year. Edited September 21, 2016 by Zambroski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife can't stand my rev but will ride her xp all day and then some. Edited September 21, 2016 by Capt.Storm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always wondered if that made the difference. And I agree that the XP allowed for more comfortable riding. I think the forward positioning was moved up quite a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny thing was that little guy in his suspension always waving the white flag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
