They are mid grade shocks. Nothing more and nothing less. That’s sad then since they can’t perform as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They keep getting better. Why can’t Poo seem to get anything right? Bold: Nowhere to go but up! 8 hours ago, AKIQPilot said: The KYB Pro 40’s are the best shocks available on a consumer sled. The Velocity's are a close second. I loved my Pro 40’s for sure. Excellent, excellent shock and great adjustability. I’d prolly swap out my Fox for a good set.

Made the best front end in the industry even better I’d have to try this new Matryx too. They say “great for the active rider” which was the same as what they said about the 08 XP... which turns out meant that unless you use a pile of body English this thing gonna throw you straight into the trees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I hear it’s made a big difference in how the whole sled handles. Which, I find hard to believe since there is no question the front end is the best in the industry but......we’ll see.

New ride for your son....nice! Are you going with the 146 Assault or 146 SKS? I'm thinking a 146 Assault. Love my SKS but it is not a ginsu on the trail like my Assault. Assault lays over fine and with a wider front end and 146x2.25 will be a riot. Its exactly the sled I was looking for. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for proving my point for me. I don't have a favorite brand. I like flipping everyone shit on sleds and complimenting them on where they are good. The Cat guys get so touchy over it.

I want the sled to track firmly and when I want it to bend, I’ll let it know forcefully. I did find my XP pretty “flickable” though. But not as good as my Rev. Which was kinda weird.

What retard thinks this is a whole new chassis for Polaris? No. It’s an updated “platform”. Like they all do. Problem is. Polaris has had to reengineer so much more in the last ten years than any other OEM, because it’s such a pile. Their own racers wouldn’t race any of it until just the last couple of years.
