Doo looks like the 850 could be good. The axys 800 is finally a great motor and lasting. The c tec 600 is strong. All good for everyone if u ask me. Dam prices are so hi though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have dealt with these in a fleet I maintain for a tour outfit.....all the 600 doo engines (sdi and 500ss) have all gone to 12,000 - 15,000 miles (excluding one broken crank @ 9,000) before they were sold, still running good....never opened up. You can't ask for anything better than that from a 2-stroke ridden by someone that doesn't own it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All two strokes have the same common problems. It's called heat,friction and lack of lubrication . I could go on about how the di has obvious problems vs sdi, or carbs. But why?? Some guys just gonna post he got 12,000 miles. OK,Time to loosen up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bullshit. I could post a copy of the paperwork, but I don't want to get anyone in trouble...dealers eyes only. I don't have the financial means to take advantage of the opportunity, but I have two customers of mine that did. All I can say is I have a copy of the price sheet the dealers received from BRP and that was the price I could have got one for.....no mark up over dealer invoice. What model did you order??? I can tell you what your dealer paid for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rump-rider Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 If money truly was no object I'd probably get a Sidewinder LTX and buy a backup sled to use when its arctic cat problems showed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any two stroke ran under heavy loads and over heating will have to be checked(eg. racing) The only true test is a leak down and compression test running an afr/fuel controller helps longevity of any two stroke, I don't care if it's a cat,doo or poo bragging up mileage on a two stroke is just plain dumb and senseless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I catch and pass after a little bit! Usually I can't race on snow though.. Good to see you back on here and still kicking . What sled are riding these days ? I would buy an Arctic Cat Turbo, and boost it til I had about 250 safe and reliable HP, cause I enjoy having all day orgasms while riding......

Capt.Storm Posted June 5, 2016 Author Share Posted June 5, 2016 I had to get a lighter sled so I picked up a nice 06 600sdi-x. It's alright but I still like the wifes xp better. if I knew i had a few more years ridding I would like to get a 900 doo. Thing was I sold the apex then asked the wife what she wanted for her doo....she said she was not going to sell it! That she would ride with her brother or watever and leave me home..I'm like wtf? So I bought another..lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostynuts Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Good for you. I get frustrated waiting for decent conditions, but love it when they finally arrive and I get a chance to get out with all my buddies. I still own a 2007 Apex Rtx which I will be selling in the fall, but all last year I rode a boosted 2013 turbo cat, and loved it. It was very reliable on belts, with lots of extra power. Kinda nice to be able to wheelie at 60-70 mph. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
