Immediately I knew what it was so we pull over and tighten it up and I rode it for about an hour after that I the whole time I was thinking that I like the assault better LOL. But I have been dialing that sled in for 4 years so i rides great. But then we rode some whack ass ungroomed stuff and the Matryx ate it up like nothing. So I have some dialing in to do on it but it is pretty impressive as far as the suspension goes. And the gauge is on another level. Its pretty amazing. Did you tell me that you let your limiter out...maybe drilled another hole in it? Mine is still in the factory spot and I haven’t had enough ride time to fuck with it.

They were both horrible trail sleds. The rear skid was literally an old RMK skid. A lot of people thought they were the shit though. 41 minutes ago, Highmark said: Pretty sure the 136" XCR's have tipped rails in 2022. That's gonna be a damn fun skid in the twisties. It always surprises me getting off a 137" and on my 121 800 indy how nimble it is by comparison. I'm likely not buying a new sled this year but the red, white and blue xcr 850 would be what I buy if I was in the market. I’ve had 121’s, 136’s, 144’s and 155’s. I literally felt ZERO difference in ride quality by going from 121 to 136 in my trail sled. It did have more traction but that equaled more push in the corners. My 144 could actually bridge the bumps a little better but was a dump truck in most trail conditions/corners. Currently I have my 155 RMK for off trail riding and I put my Fusion back to 121 from 136/7 for trail riding. If I was buying another strictly trail sled, it would be the shortest track length offered if I went small engine and one step longer if I was going with a big engine and planning on modding the engine for more power.

S'ok though I had Cat's I was scared to drive too far too. Then I let the yellow blood flow thru my veins that I'd made fun of for years. And man o man the money I made selling the Sabertooth leather shit that honestly had NO miles on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zambroski Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 It looks pretty similar to the last sled Cat built that has proven to be the toughest, winningest sled chassis ever. Real close in fact! I'm in!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same 3 piece tunnel with riveted tunnel. Same square tunnel, wide gas tank and pyramid support. Identical steering post location and tie rod geometry. Same bulkhead and S module with identical motor mount height. Same skidframe mount geometry with Falling rate suspension. ... Don't throw flames like a shitty kitty though but that chassis changes so often it's like terrestrial magic or some shit. Seriously, I dunno how Cak can afford to re-tool every decade or so.
