There isn’t a chance in hell that corners anywhere near a PC. Zero. None. The procross is flatter but gives you zero warningwhen it’s gonna lift a ski and it does it violently when it lifts. It’s like a corvette. I call it snap ski lift. The axys can handle extremely flat if you move forward on the sled. It reacts to body position in a way that no other sled does. Want transfer , move back. Want flat then move forward. Edited March 3, 2020 by f7ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep I hear you, and I used to be a 4 stroke 1200 guy, to heavy and low performance. Just shows you that an old guy like you needs a hotel after a long ride on a heavy 4 stroke...... but Polaris isn’t going to go there. They concentrating on mountain and 2 stroke.

I was referencing your absurd "I won't let 87 tpuc my sled" crap. I know I'm being an asshole about it, but seriously, by definition you're talking about a tiny portion of the market. Not to mention other manufacturer's sleds will run on 87 too. Polaris is just advertising the fact that their ECU will compensate for lower octane fuel like everyone else's... actually I can't speak to whether or not Cat 2-strokes can pull that off 1 minute ago, f7ben said: If you move slightly forward on that sled it will handle as flat as any sled I’ve ridden. Move back on the seat and it’s a ski lifter and wheelie machine. Maybe you’re not big enough to make this happen? Yeah, honestly narrower and further forward is basically just moving closer to the rider position of the G4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want transfer , move back. Want flat then move forward. That “move forward/move back” goes for all sleds. The difference is the stability. Any sled that picks up the skis with a bit of rear movement is gonna handle like shit in the corners no matter what. It should take exaggerated movements to make a sled react so severely. Nobody thinks a see-saw on the trails is a good idea. To be fair, I’ve never ridden a pro-X or XCR with the upgraded shocks though so, I’m sure that makes a difference. I sure fucking hope so because that pro-S was like a comfy, three seater jet ski. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The axys front handles far flatter than the g4 skidoo’s.....on the skidoo you’re can’t get an rmotion to wheelie either unless you put the blocks to 1 and even then it’s not like the axys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obviously the same difference as the RMK 163 and the RMK 165 OK sorry about your luck. Thank God us Canadians saved your ass during the war. As for the 87, it lets you run 87 without fear of damage in all scenarios. That is why it’s nice. Tell me if you had a 1200 doo built for 87 you would run 91only.
