I was pretty critical of it at points. I don’t see the point of adding all that complexity when they could make the same amount of power for less cost out of a 900cc engine. Why does Ford produce the Eco-Boost? Guarantee they can do it for less than a similarly powered V8. Yes production scale is massively different but who knows. Obviously here we are talking the same amount of cylinders. Edited February 22, 2023 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much going on with 850 NA, Turbo, and a 9R as options this year - especially when Polaris is still dealing with expenses on all their quality control bullshit. My guess is XCR 9R for 2025, otherwise mostly BNG's for 2024 with the exception of the 7s gauge getting upped to an 11s. Talk of smart shocks, but who knows ... if they come out, I'd think that's only going to be in the XCR models. Few 9r going down lately.

Both Boosts in the group I ride with have something going on with the throttle hanging, too. Not necessarily BAD, because it's on the low end of RPM's and speed, but it's noticeable.
