I had a 2012 F1100 turbo sno pro limited for a season. Problem free. Very quick sled. My only complaint was the padding on the seat was non existent. Felt like sitting on piece of plywood. Took it to my upholstery friend and it looked better than factory after with some nice cushion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 I don't recall ever feeling like "you know what'd make this ride better? A heated seat." Seems to me like it'd just make the seat all wet and sticky. I like the seat slick so it's easier to move around in the twisties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the first year and limited edition black with the copper color windshield and idlers you can see.

Is where I got the boondocker Yah, it’s the best trail flash I’ve ever ridden and very fast. Way faster than any piggyback tune and way faster than speedwerx or bmp 4 stage setups etc. It just works well. Makes the sled feel way snappier with the higher revs too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like you're out there all the time in that stuff, but there were times where it felt pretty nice. Especially, riding back to camp after the weekly 220 dollar belt purchase.
