I am new to the polaris Iq chassis but here is my .02. I am currently on a 09 rmk 700 155, with a camoplast extreme track and Fox R EVOLs upfront and Fox Customs in the rear.
This was supposed to be my wifes sled I got it last year thinking it was a good deal and I could keep rockin 08 ski doo XP 146. Then I rode my wifes sled (minus fox) and that was a deal breaker. Sold the XP after the wife said hell no i am not doing this again.
I am not going to lie here the power is better on the XP but.. the handling for me is not even in the ball park I can do **** on my Poo (aka Miss New Boobs) that I could'nt even come close on the xp, side hill going up hill no problem, side hill going down hill no problem on the poo, on the ski wasnt happening for much more then a few seconds. Is everbody the same doubtfull, but for me I can ride the stink out of the lil poo vs. the XP but again thats me.
The down side for me choosing Polaris over Skidoo, the nearest dealer support for the Poloaris is 750 miles away, Skidoo support is 20 miles.
