The VerdictOur stock machine was almost exactly what Polaris promised. Maybe a little less peppy than pre-production ones we tested, but on pace with other 600 class sleds we've had. Remember, not every machine coming off the line is exactly the same. Performance changes slightly from one production run to the next and no two engines are 100% identical.
Also, credit Polaris with a 600 that's 15% cleaner burning than earlier models, has detonation control, PERC reverse and an increased case size and intake.
Will it be the fastest machine on the trails this winter? Maybe, maybe not, but our bet is Polaris will win riders over with a renewed dedication to reliability and this engine's smooth power.
