165 khaos with qd2. Add a seat(-5lbs) ti can(-11.5lbs) and you are right at 500lbs+- a pound or 2 rtr.. with a 44ltr tank to boot

Winder is fastest. But dead last in sales��

Ya its obviously not for everyone in the mountains or else they would still be offering it in North America. But when you go from a Sidewinder to 2 stroke it just seems boring. Hold the go paddle to the bar and just slowly chug along.

This is actually very accurate they simply don’t float as well in the ultra deep snow as the 800/850’s. I remember I was able to drop like 27-30lbs with a straight pipe and a lightweight battery add the tune and lockout shock and it was a blast . But your still 620ish the problem I found with it was you rode differently when your tired and afraid to get stuck I hated having the big 4 strokes upside down 850 not so much going over. I loved the winder but it’s hard not to have fun on today’s 2 strokes. Now if down the road I find someone giving away one with an mcxpress kit on it will be a very tempting back up

A Turbo Doo makes 165 HP at elevation (lets say 6,000 ft for Revy) means that the Polaris is making roughly 135 HP, or 30HP less.
By using the logic above, that would mean the Polaris would need to drop 210 LBS to be equivalent to a boosted Doo..... 340 Lb Pro anyone? haha

You obviously have not raced them. Or are you measuring with another method? Faster to the gas pump? Oil Pump? or what?

If this is true then it would be very embarrassing to the t-850 as they run side by side in my group.
