Gold Member 800renegaderider Posted February 7, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted February 7, 2021 Loved my 11 ptek 800 never gave me a issue until it’s demise. Eventually crank split in two piece at 9k miles. I did go through control arms by just hitting a mosquito so that sucked. My buds 12 cat when new was by far the biggest piece of shit I’ve ever seen on the trails. That thing was breaking and in the shop every other mile that got put on it.

My buds 12 clutch replaced 3 maybe 4 times, reverse blew out twice cause the chain case to explode, cracked both rear skid rails, third wheel fell apart, the tunnel was replaced because the rivets came loose and ovaled out the holes, heated grip, I’d have to ask him I’m sure there more I don’t remember...it was a rough couple years when it was new but it’s bullet proof now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bent my control arm on my 11 gade on a old logging road just by riding over a rock under the snow. Basically rode over it at speed idk maybe 30, kicked that side up and off angle almost fell off but saved it and kept going only to notice something wasn’t right, look down and the thing is almost bent in half lol.

The engine in my 99SX600 blew the cast in half when a rod came through... and my 08 Vector blew a chain case. Twice in 25 years ain't bad. Two worst sleds for me were my 95 XCR 600 which seized 3 times in its first 500 miles. Second was my 12 Cat turbo, which was flawless for the first 2000 miles and then was programmed to self destruct after that. Throw in 3 more blown motors, and I've had my share of bullshit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 Actu7ally got to ride an SRX with 200 miles on it back from the crash scene. I'll tell you, you can feel the difference in the way it winds up only spinning a 1 inch track opposed to the 1 3/4 on mine. Very nice sled.

I'd think that 1.75 would be the tits though for trail work. Out on the lake, that SRX must wheel out like a mother fucker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we’re the Barney’s really. Just hideous. the rev was a nice chassis but garbage engines. XP was a garbage chassis with garbage clutching and garbage engines.

Still one of my all time fav sleds . Last of the ez to do anything on sleds . And for what it was extremely capable deep snow sled . I can still jump on one and feel comfortable and know what it is going to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
