You can ignore my other post asking what you got.

Only thing I would really suggest is to clip the track.

Hope to see ya this winter.

LOL... I saw your other post so i guess by now you know what he bought, He's actually up in the Yukon working and service where hes at is hit and miss. but he is planning on clipping the track and did pick up a clutch kit ,can and a 36" front end kit for it. he's pretty pumped to get out for a rip on it that's for sure.

Yeah they don’t really need much out of the box but the narrower stance helps for the Doolaiders coming off those tippy sleds lol

You calling a Doo a tippy sled?????? Serious tho I always flop over whenever I tried ANY polaris. WAY Tippier. So this gona be interesting right outa the gate. And I'm not sold on clipping track quite yet. Hell, I got a doo track that was clipped evry 2nd hole, that has lost lots its clips. Some going like 6 holes between clips. 12,700Km and still going LOL. No idlers either. So we shall see. But clipping is stoopid easy if needed.

I went from a 163 doo to a 155 poo last year and have to agree the poo is way tippier, I also did the 36” front end and it made a fun riding sled that much better. Not sure I’d ever go back to doo.

better get your rudder leg in shape for holding that poo off the sidehill.

Just look at any Axys with 1000km on it and you will see track wear. Some more than others. It’s $100 worth spending due to where they clipped the track. 2019’s were fixed. You can set the track tension banjo tight as they call for and it will still happen. Good thing is you can get a season of wear and still do it after you see it.

The Doo is way easier to initiate onto its side. Flex track, 36” stance, flipflop dangle joint, but the RMK’s will hold a line better, more controlled. The Axys actually doesn’t move forward washed out as good as the Pro ride chassis did but it’s other attributes are a bonus.

So tippier? I am not sure about that but it’s a different set up that you will get used to and then a Doo will feel foreign to you. Just get your suspension set up dialled in and don’t look back.

Best thing you can do is replace the drivers and clip the track and anti stab, will free everything up better suspension and the sled will actually roll when you let off the gas instead of throwing you over the bars.

Int ext drivers both sides, not just center like it is, can keep track loose, otherwise stock they ratchet alot I've heard

That’s because the only way you can get to see the terrain they are riding is in videos. Not much action along those groomed trails.

LMFAO... Poor Waggs, hes been getting hammered by peeps everywhere.. poor guys going to develop a complex... but he brings it on himself... LOL... and Yah Brandon, I don't blame you for figuring it out as you go, I really wanted to try something different last season and glad I did but happy to be back on a poo, that being said i was very tempted to try an Alpha this year as I've heard so much good about them and really like trying different machines without any bias... I am not a brand loyal guy and am happy to be open minded and try something new. and in a few more yrs when I'm old AF I'll be Like waggs ...sit around drink Teas, smoke darts and talk about the days of breaking girls hearts :evil:

The steering is a learning curve for sure but the narrower boards on the Poo and Cat are nice. It's easier to keep your foot on the outer rail for better control and that doesn't lock your foot in as bad if you need to twist it which might be nice for you with your bad ankle. They are also narrower through the boards and don't panel out as bad.

Mabe cause I'm tall and big feet , just feel like I'm stepping off all the time when I tested one before, Mabe it's just me

Kinda like a half a boot over all the time, not when side stepping either

Lmao. Too funny
