at the sled show i was told the m1000s weigh 30 pounds more than the m8s? is that true? how bout the torque? is it worth the weight or not? i hear the hcrs rock, but a m1000 with a few add ons would it match it or beat it? i know the horsepower is the same now but isnt some more torque worth it? ps for add ons im talking pipe,can,boondocker box, bolt on stuff no engine mods,thanks guys!!

IMO it doesn't matter, if you can't get the power through to the snow/ground through slippage and lose of traction.

Same weight of machine, more torque just means loss of traction. I guess if you feathered it, whereas the lowered torque you could spin into it.

I don't know,.. I'm sick, and have insomnia. Slap me.
