Mid and rear suspension changes affect the Polaris's front end quite a bit. If you have compression dials Hard in the front and soft in the rear will decrease ski pressure, hard in the rear soft in the front will increase ski pressure.

@adampetten1009 Жыл бұрын

The ski pressure you refer to is probably due to the rear suspension, the Poo has a coil rear shock so it does a better job pushing on the rear of the skid, the doo has the torsion with pushes down on center of the skid. The doo will be a better big hit sled but the poo will track a little better as you notice. Could do a coil over rear suspension on the expert and they will probably feel more similar besides one being lighter and one having more power. Also I like the wrap on the Poo better, wasnt a fan of the Grey in the doo wrap.. the almost blue chrome on the black is really stand out. Also I'd have a day dropping those cliffs, my favorite is the gut lifting feeling falling from the sky. I said on one of your videos before about ditching weight. When we find a general play spot I always drop my tunnel bag, that packout set up must be heavy too.

As soon as things go sideways I've got no right hand!

@@-tr0n what I’ve found is guys that grew up snowmobiling are resistant to change more than guys just starting out. Finger throttle makes a lot of sense to guys coming in from bikes. Also way less hand fatigue on the trails as I can switch fingers. Thumb throttles always felt weird to me.

I rode a G5 turbo R yesterday and I was absolutely blown away by the seamless power and throttle response. Now I realize why I have seen them forsale with no miles. People do not realize the power they have. Definitely Definitely a sled for the experienced rider. I ride an 850 polaris with bikeman stage 2 and it's a weapon also. The doo had me vocal in the helmet. Hahah. What a rush.

My two buddies call my Skidoo "That french machine" even though one of them is french and from eastern Canada. French Canada and French Canadians have done so much to destroy this country I really do not know why I ride one. I think that is because BRP is largely not owned by the Canadian Bombardier now.

@@R1Kyle I'm a proud American, but I know we're arrogant assholes too. I'm not brand loyal either. Something I've noticed though is how emotional a large percentage of Ski Doo riders are. They(a lot) over exaggerate Polaris' "faults" while they turn a blind eye when a Doo goes down. Take Muskoka's first ride on his Gen5 for example - if that were a Polaris that he was on, and the clutch was making all that noise and the plastic broke already - that comments section would've been a SLAUGHTER HOUSE. But since it was a Doo, you didn't hear shit. And that's what I'm trying to bring to light. I'm tired of the disingenuous brand bashing and dishonesty. The snowmobile community is better than this. We aren't fuckin metal mulisha or biker boiz. Nothing is wrong with preferences, but I wished we could all grow up a little and take the emotional ties out of it.
