Canadian here. Anyone notices the prices of used sleds going up? People are asking more than what they paid for used turbo 850s and the regular 850s are holding strong used prices. I seen one turbo 850 with 200km on it listed at $29,000! Another with 0km for $25,000! Just a couple years ago you...
Just wondering what other people are thinking with the new turbos. Initially I was going to trade the 2018 175x on a 2021 turbo but now I'm thinking I may wait for a horsepower increase and I doubt the gen 5 is too far off. Id imagine 185hp coming soon in a new chassis. I'd be a little mad if i...
I've never been to whistler as its almost 1500km away. But for a guy coming up with a group to go sledding there where do we go? Hotel/cabin recommendations? Staging areas to unload at etc? I realize getting a guide is a good idea but leave that out of recommendations as I've found lots through...
just curious how the 3" lugs are holding up on the G4s. I have a 175" coming and heard that lug breakage isn't uncommon. My sled could see 30+ km a day just riding trails in to the deep stuff. I'm going to double up on scratchers but i sure hope I'm not replacing the track annually. If that's...
So last fall I bought a Neo NMS 26' trailer. It came with insulated walls and I had floor spray foamed. Really quite a nice unit. However, when I come out to the trailer in the morning after 5 sleds have dried off its a swimming pool. The door sills are all iced up so i have to chip that...
Just curious about what everyone thinks about the MPI turbo kits. I ride all mountains so I take a huge power loss from altitude. I got a 175" coming and this looks like a nice reliable, low maintenance setup that will give a nice boost in hp. What does everyone think? Thanks

On my 800 etec i used an aftermarket thermostat to prevent the power fade that happened when you did long wot pulls. Does the 850 have the same problem?
So I'm coming off a 2015 summit x 154 and going to a summit x 175. I never packed fuel and usually rode 60-70 km in mountains a day. I'm hoping to get away with not packing fuel on the new sled but just curious about how people made out on the 850?
Looking for a good low profile tunnel bag for my 2018 I have coming. I have the skidoo slim tunnel bag on my current XM and wore out the bottom. It never kept the snow out either. Powderkegs are a little bulky and brp has nothing I like. I seen the burandt adventure bag on a Polaris and it's...
So I got a set of tire chains for a 35/12.5R20. I just tried them on my truck which has 35/11.5R20 tires. So an inch narrower. They are cam lock style. I put 1 on, drive 100 feet and checked it. They are not super tight. It's possible I could unlock a cam lock by hand. I have the chain plyer...
So just looking at the 2018 summit vs freeride right now. With the freeride available with the narrower ski stance this peaked my interest until I seen that it's 24 lbs heavier. I'd rather just add rail bracing and a grip and rip kit to a summit and still be at least 20 lbs lighter. And for...
I bent the bars on my 2015 summit x. I'm just wondering what I need to order to replace them. To my understanding there is a grip, an insulator and then the stick on heating element. I was told the only thing I'd need to replace is the insulator because it gets wrecked to remove it. Can I use...
Well now that there are some miles on the new sleds I'm curious as to what people's opinions are on the 154 and 165 track lengths with the 850? I'll be buying a 2018 and currently ride a 2015 xm 154. I'm not sure if I want to go longer than 154 or not. I love my 154 as its easy to throw around...
