Uh yeah and my last sled was a skeedoo. Trust me the assault handles better than an xrs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are coming out with an upgraded model that actually handles good? Drop another $3k. Lose $500 for February and it's $9500. Science So don't buy it. Plenty of buyers out there who will. That's all that matters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude my assault handles better than any skidoo I've ridden, that's why I keep it. And with the shock and spring changes I've made rmotion is not an upgrade worth making either.

Anler Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I am considering the 2021 skidoo tho. I'd really like to try it first tho. I still think a poo will handle better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the assault is awesome for what it's marketed as...a 50/50 crossover, but there's no way it has better trail manners than any new shorty.

I read it that you could buy the SkiDoo XRS on a snow check for less than 13. My mistake. I agree. They're not that bad though. I kind of figured that was it...I read it again and confused myself.

Than an xrs it does. Rode them both back to back. But he is in the process of getting his shocks slugged so that could change. I ride with some serious trail weapons. Xcr switchback, cat 800's, Indy xc's and various skidoos. Nobody runs away from me. We can talk shit on the internet but I can buy whatever sled I want and I was die hard skidoo my whole life. Until I ride something better I'm going to stick with these axys Polaris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Assault was resprung and revalved and worked pretty damn good, but still wasn't as plush in the choppy shit as my R motion sleds were stock. Handling wise flip a coin, both sleds are competitive with each other. JMO. I will give a short lugged Assault the nod for top end, they haul ass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but you rode yours off trail, mine is set up for trail riding. You had a 2" track too right? With this new clutching I have I catch myself giggling all the time. It's a blast.

Also had a chance to ride a 900 turbo....nice addictive power curve but man does this sled have some serious handling querks, granted it was a cheaper trim level and could use some tweaks that I'm sure would help. I'm liking mine and consider it on par with the poo 850. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildboer Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Today I learned a 600 with a 129"x1.25" track hits it's limit at 3-4 feet of fresh powder. God damn was it fun though. Believe it or not, my sled is not stuck in these pictures. Got on an pulled away with no digging. Don't have any pictures of when I finally got it stuck and decided to turn around, the powder was close to 4 feet and I could do maybe 30mph wide open, powder flying over the windshield into my face. Slowed down a little bit to see if my dad and aunt were still with me and it trenched when I tried to get back into the throttle. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was awesome until it started getting so deep it was borderline unrideable. You'd need at least a 146x1.75 to really enjoy it. We ran into a group of Renegades led by a Backcountry X after we turned around, they asked about the conditions and were confident they were making it to Harrisville... When we were walking out of Stillwater after lunch they were walking in. They said they broke trail for a couple miles past our turn around point before giving up and coming back. I didn't say anything, but if I was on a Backcountry we'd have made it past Harrisville like we'd planned to with no problem. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six of us went out yesterday and it was a mix of groomed,whooped out, and ungroomed trails. All in all it was nice to get out and didn't see too many sleds on the trails. On the way home from my buddies place the groomer had gone thru and I was the first one on it and had to keep it in check watching out for deer and moose. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
