Really inconsistent engine RPM. Not a piece of junk but certainly nowhere near the hype. Just another nice trail sled tbh, but nothing more. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I seen some Guy last weekend he was bragging about his doing 118mph across the lake, even showed me the gauge... But then he said he's buddies was a bit slower. Maybe they got some inconsistencies between these engines or tunes. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some guys saying 850’s are faster top end. Some guys are claiming they are really fast, but they may be coming off a 600. I don’t know. It is quick 0-60 then wides then wave to 80. After that you might want to be letting off soon if you’re racing a t cat Edited January 26, 2022 by ACE 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm glad I didn't buy anything new this year. I heard the big pimping kashima coated shocks on the Lynxs aren't all that....and I'm not on board with all this smart shock bullshit either. Reminds me of my electric Ohlins Apex.....junk. 11 hours ago, EvilBird said: I seen some Guy last weekend he was bragging about his doing 118mph across the lake, even showed me the gauge...

My 14 Freeride clocked about 108. Maybe 100 real mph. Thats an off trailer and this is supposed to be a mack daddy? wtf 23 minutes ago, Kivalo said: Man that looks heavenly.

Platinum Contributing Member Blackstar 5,744 Posted January 27, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted January 27, 2022 Put 120 miles on today from my driveway. My fuel light was flashing for the last 20 miles but I made it to the house. I couldn’t fit 5 gallons in her sled even with burping the tank. No premium here for mine but I’m sure I’ll need 10. Overcast day with wind and scattered flurries. Packed our own lunch. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SayatodaU.P.eh? 1,751 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Body hurts. Three days straight, deep in the woods. Been living on booze and ibuprofen since Thursday night. I might be getting too old for this kind of riding but I don’t want to give it up, that’s for sure. 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
