    Over reving on the 850T

    What dealer are you working with Summitizer that took the time to help? My dealer is taking a very different approach and my opinion is that of Maxwell's, They completely missed the Mark with weight in these sleds, I'm often seeing as high as 8300 sustained rpm.

    Heavy handling of the turbo vs N/A help!!

    Not sure if you replied to the wrong post or misread what I wrote there fella, I don't have a cat, haven't for many years. Maybe to a smaller person the 850T feels heavier but I do not notice it, I am not running a can on the 21 nor did I on the 20.5, no need to, they are near perfectly...

    Heavy handling of the turbo vs N/A help!!

    How small of a human are ya fella? I had folks of all brand loyalties and all sizes on the demo last year and nobody mentioned anything about it feeeling heavy, quite the opposite if anything. This year I've put 4 days on my '21 and I have to say it feels even more nimble than the 20.5's. So...

    2021 Skidoo 850 turbo reviews

    After riding the demo 850t most of last year I snow checked one in a 165 X. So far I've Rode the big storm 4' of pow two weeks ago and rode the settled but decent snow last week. First impressions after 250km, 37% break in remaining, occasional over rev, will maybe need to add a hair more...

    No Sledding This Weekend

    I wish them luck with that, I encourage as many people as possible to get out sledding this weekend and enjoy our lands. Let your mla's know that this is not acceptable and let Devin Dreeshen know he needs to leave fire bans to individual counties just as it always has been.

    To those who have given up mountain riding?

    I understand the reasons that guys quit and I also understand that sledding around home has its place and can be fun, especially with the fam, but when I'm out west and break into a new Zone where there's no tracks, lord knows if there's ever been a human there before, and the boys work there...

    Longevity of the 850T Motor?

    Currently have 1967km on the Gateway Sales and Service demo and no issues thus far, not even a belt. Only complaint I would have is there needs to be some sort of snow flap option for spring type trails, I have had to stop and pile snow on the tunnel a few times to keep it from getting too hot...

    Summit X-pert Ski Bushings

    Cut your spacer in half, centre the spindle on the ski with half of the spacer on either side and you won't have anymore problems, no it doesn't make any difference to how it handles

    T850...165 vs 175?

    I own an '18 175 with the spindle update, new seat etc, but have spent most of the year on a demo 165 850T from the good folks at Gateway Sales and Service in Rocky Mountain house. Obviously the n\a to turbo skews me towards the demo but overall I have to say that with the fine tuning this...

    850 Turbo Q&A

    Additional coverage for the third year is in the $2000 range. IMHO it's not worth it, like anything, most issues will show themselves early and this setup seems bulletproof so far. Unless your a 3000+ km/year rider I think the two year is sufficient. Happy snowchecking and if anyone is shopping...

    Spring Check deals?

    Sorry Bobsledder, I shouldn't have painted all of Bc with the same orange brush, I know there's still good people like you out there it's just frustrating that small local dealers are struggling on both sides of the border and even shutting down while these guys with money think it's cool to...

    Spring Check deals?

    Not sure where all you guys live but if you're buying sleds in Bc and living in Alberta, that seems like a bit of a douche move, but that's just my opinion. Why not buy local? Support the AB economy, wtf has BC done other than try to sewer AB for the last 5 years? Plus if you need parts or...
