My dealer called today and asked if I would like to ride the 850 with Polaris Engineers in Revy over Easter weekend. Unfortunately I will not be able to make it. Nice to be asked and to know Polaris is getting them out there for review.

I was asked to test ride a new Tesla concept car and hear my opinions on it. But I too said no, not this time.

It was Cyclewoorks Calgary that made the offer to me. This dealer has been really good to deal with for buying sleds and warranty work. I ordered a 19 from them now so I will find out in time how the 850 is.

I was on the demo ride in Revy and the new 850 is an awesome machine. The new motor is really responsive and hauls the mail. I was riding my buddies 800 with a stage 4 slp kit and I think the 850 will outpull it. The new front end makes the axys easier to get on edge and I think it sticks into the hill better than the 18 I was riding. I'm a doo guy buy I would seriously consider the Poo 850 for my next sled.

You added e-start? Good luck keeping with your buddy if there is any snow depth. Hope you ride fast.
