    Fuel usage on turbo vs n/a?

    Does the 850t burn a considerable amount more fuel than the n/a version? I bought my first turbo (2022 154) and looking at a few storage options. Bought the seat box for storage but that doesn't work with my jerry can, they hit. I heard the bigger stackable one doesn't, but trying to avoid...

    Expert vs X/SP

    Currently have a 2018 SP 154 850, upgrading this year to a one or two year used sled. Would be going to a 154 again, either 2.5 or 3". Ride mostly in BC but also do put some miles on in the prairies. Does the short tunnel, shock package and what not make a noticeable difference on the expert...

    Kill switch delete

    So I've had my kill switches flipped upside down and years but every once in a while they get water in them and freeze and no longer work, which is a pita. Considering getting a munster one, but I don't really use it anyway. Can I just either unplug the killswitch from the harness or take...

    850 Bad Bog

    Have a 2017 850 with 150 miles that I just purchased. It idles good, maybe a little choppier than my 800 etec though. Just went out for a burn up the ditch. It has a really bad bog right from basically no power to wide open. Won’t pass 7000 rpm. Almost feels like it’s on one cylinder in terms...

    Going longer

    Just sold my 16 154 T3, favourite sled ever. My previous Xm 154 2.5 couldn't even compare. Looking at getting into a 17 or 18 850. Have the new 3" tracks been holding up to a bit of trail/prairie riding? It won't see much of it but would like to be able to ride around home a bit without...

    T3 vs Freeride spring riding

    I have a 15 Freeride 154 atm, but was offered a trade for a 15 163 T3. I am living in BC this winter, and was just wondering if theres an advantage to a T3 over my 154 in spring snow? I love technical trees and just general big mountain riding. I love how playful my 154 is but id imagine a 163...

    Speedwerx bumper and GNR Braces..

    Im looking at bracing my new free ride, and i would like a new bumper too, so i figured the Speedwerx bumper would be a good mix, since it braces the s-module at the same time. Would the bumper provide nearly as much strength as the GNR braces? Or would i be able to run the bumper and the...

    So, I'm looking at snow checking this year. Either a Pro 155 w/ the clickers, or a Freeride 154. I know I am in the Polaris section. I am currently on a Pro, but i have bent my fair share of stuff on it from hard landings. My favourite things to do are jump and tree ride, so I'm in a tough...

    Ok, i am in the market to snow check a 2015. i know there are quite a few threads on this already but do the assaults have a stronger over structure?

When i got home i noticed that it had leaked a good amount of engine oil into the box of my truck, and it was leaking out of the exhaust. It smoked a stupid amount. My neighbour came over and he figured...
