Right... If they come out with a 163 3" that would be in the same ballpark! Not talking 155... We all know they will dump the longer one soon

Out do them....... with a new engine? This thing isnt even in the same leauge as a t3 yet........ STILL 15 wide.... They have ALWAYS advertised a 2.6 track.... STILL less power.... Correct me if im wrong but the only thing they have over Doo right now is weight?

Track width = Ski doo
Track length= Ski doo
Track Height = Ski doo
Power = Ski doo
Weight =Polaris

Not in the same league as a T3, lol. And what league is that??

It's a funny thing though. The other thing that Polaris has over BRP is a long list of 'professional riders' lined up to ride for the brand. Obviously that gutless, little skinny sled does something right...

I wonder how the electronic oil pump will work. It's a good idea but Polaris has been know for electrical issues. Hope they seal the plug for that so moisture don't get in!

why does every thread have to be a pissing contest?

why cant we just talk about the new sled instead of arguing?

Exactly, I have gotten to the point where reading some of the threads just turn me away from this forum and point me towards hardcoresledder.

For myself, I love the new specs, and have been waiting to purchase a new sled for sometime,.. and I really look forward to my new sled this fall.

Dielectric grease, also the 800HO was released last year and not heard of any oil pump issues, dealer or otherwise. But not to say there aren't any.

there is no way they developed a new lightweight track with LIFT! to only use on the 155". You will see this track on the other lengths as well.

I cant get over all the lift references on the poo website.... its like its describing a freaking hovercraft!!!! Stayed tuned for lift accessories.
HUH???...did i say they wouldnt?. Look kid...i dont bleed brands. I ride whats neat and exciting and right now thats gona be doo and poo for me. :p

I think it's smart not everyone wants a 3". But the option of one would be good!

Your right you wouldn't think there would be a learning curve going from 2.5 to 3. Trying keep things cool and wearing out.

Ski doo hasn't had their release yet! Who cares anyways.. They are all good. I think that track size is a good option. I know quite a few people the didn't go t3 just because of the 3" paddles. When DOO went from 2.25 to 2.5 it made a huge difference! You can expect to see that here!

I think the sled looks pretty sweet and should work well. But to the guys making a big deal about the doo guys ripping on Polaris, and only pointing out negatives of their product, you should probably read the release again because Polaris clearly makes blatant jabs at doo, about "panelling out," whether it's true or not, I still don't think that is a very classy thing to say in your brand new sled release.
