Does it ride like a IQ or a xp?????
Looks nice! But i dont want any first year product from polaris. Any thing on the motor? They still cant get the 08-09 -10 800s working so why trust them on this one? They are doing any thing they can to get out of fixing the sleds.In the polaris forum there is a guy who moved his wire harness that is bad from the get go. Polaris wont fix his sled because he did that. That is bull. I think my very loaded 09 dragon 163 with 166 miles on it will be in for sale section soon.

Rode it yesterday in Seeley Lake - it's like an XP that will sidehill effortlessly. Great ergos and balances much easier as the motor and clutches are both low in the chassis. Not nearly as "tippy" as the Dragon.

how come you guys got to ride one?

Just "Special" that way I guess... It was invitation only, my buddy at the local Polaris store hooked me up!

invitaion only demo...
I rode with a couple guys that demoed them over the weekend in Seeley on monday feedback was very good , lower CG , nimble steering one comment was "everything else is obsolete at this point" . Actually steering while sidehilling was commented on as well.
They look great , I think I may step up for one.

thanks for the info. I need to be on that list

Had a freind that rode one in Seely also. Said that it handled and rode nice but not that much better than his 2010. Also said it felt about the same power wise. But overall he liked it.

Sweet sled.

Looks like polaris will totaly dominate the moutain segment again!!!
When has the rmk ever dominated the summit? The only time it was close was with the 97 700 rmk and then the 670 summits still win!
Just look at the sales numbers, they tell story, and confirm what I seen with the guys I ride with.
Where can you find the sales numbers on the different sleds / models ?
That might be interesting info. Thanks

Who cares if it looks like an XP or a Turd?? It's all about competition between the different brands. I'm not partial to any particular brand, When I get some more cash, I will ride what ever has the best user reviews for the type of riding I like to do. I'm on an 06 polaris 900 with a few mods to lighten it up but I would be on cloud 9 with any sled lighter than my current one. I'll let the 900 condition/own me for a few years and then hop on one of these "feather weight" sleds so I can move like Chris Burrandt LOL!

WOW is all i can say............ Yup the 670 was a real winner!!!!!
