08 XP? 08 Dragon?

[kodpkd]

Ok the Dragons are out. From what I have been hearing, they're not all that... hummm, blowing belts, hand warmer issues, etc. Have not heard of any of them beating an XP.. Even though still think it's the second best sled in the deep & steep. My hand warmers never quit, & has never blown a belt. I am very glad I have a 08 XP. It rocks.

Rented an 08 xp 154 track from Island Adventures in Island Park Idaho this week for two days.

Hands down the best stock mountain sled I have ever ridden we had a King Cat with 180 hp but the set up of the XP allowed the 151 hp XP to out preform the KK in a significant way.

Easy to handle and boondock. Had clutching set up by Mike at Island aventure and it had 270 miles on its' original belt.

If I were buying a new sled right now and had someone to set up the clutching right so it would not go through belts it would be the XP.

Negative - The hand warmers did not work.

I agree with the XP. Very good box stock sled!

Dragon nice but like it was said in a different post, it's like the new oprah. Looks better then the old oprah, skinier then the old oprah, but still sort of feels and looks like the old oprah!

But it better then the 900rmk!

I wasn't to impresssed with the dragon until today. There may be something to this 80 mile break in deal after all. A few days ago the dragon was struggling, today it ran as good as any 800 I've ever seen. We didn't have any XP's on the hill to put it up against today but I feel it definitely would have held it's own, in long steep climbs he was just a few lengths behind my UBR 900 which has been outrunning the Doo's by several lengths.

I'd like to see the two run against each other in person. I bet its very very close. The Xp is a hard running machine and the 700 dragons I rode last year were awesome.
