1000 vs 800?

[Delo]

I am looking for an 05-06 800 X 151 and I see a lot of 05 1000 162 for about the same price. I have found some 162 X packages with low miles some less than 800 151. Now that is tempting. Are there any major problems with the 05's? I live in MN and ride alot of ditches so the only hang up I have is the 162" for around here. But I have been riding a 151 around home for 3 years and have had no problems, it is only about 11" longer. How much heavier are the 1000 162's X packages vs and 800 151" X package. I just want to make sure that the next sled I get I will like. I am going from a ZX to a Rev and am looking forward to it. I have heard that the 05 were bad but
06's were good. Thanks.

Does anyone have one of these 05 1000's and are a flat lander like me? If so how do they like it?

The 06x 800 has a roller secondary, a great addition. The 800 is much lighter to throw around. At the end of the day it won't leave you gasping for air, the FUN factor is high.
