I don't know where you get your stats but Polaris says 26lb difference. That being said it's mostly all top weight too, which is the worst possible place you can add weight. Boost are
heavier and have lag. 2 worst things for technical riding.
532lbs I’ll weigh my 23 when I get a chance to compare . The sled is well balanced maybe you need to adjust your shocks. Hoping gear down and clutching will help with the the lag. The g5 r has instant response and destroys the boost for track speed

Who’s comparing it too a doo ? You asked where I got the weight spec from there it is . Maybe you need to hit the gym alittle if you think the boost is a boat anchor lol .I wasn't comparing it to a Doo. I rode those boat anchors for years. They are for old fat guys who want to crash into stuff and not have their sled fall apart.
It won't be. Clutching, mapping etc is no substitute for the way the Ski-Doo turbo system works. Its just a better system with respect to bottom end response (no restriction point).I hope next year their 9R turbo is alot closer to the Doo. The Doo is the closest thing to no lag I have ever seen. I'd almost go as far as to say it has zero lag.
When you ride like a Karen, you tend to not think the Boost is much heavier than a NA.Who’s comparing it too a doo ? You asked where I got the weight spec from there it is . Maybe you need to hit the gym alittle if you think the boost is a boat anchor lol .
Lynx are utility sleds. I only buy one if i had to tow a trailer around. Way too heavy for technical riding. They are just selling because people want something they used to not be able to get. Junk!No longer allowed to use specs, figures or dynos.
Seat of pants, doo motor is a fair amount better. Haven't rode my buddy's 23 boost yet. Other buddy with boost likes my lynx motor way better. Hates my sled. Told me he had some duct tape if i wanted it.
You are right. It packed my azz up the mountain. I do remember sweating like a pig, which wasn't in the brochure, but it was on a sidehill the 9r turned around on.Lynx are utility sleds.

I agree with respect to the Pro. Totally disagree with respect to the Khaos (and so does KC711 - heard that guy knows a thing or two about riding)Pro boost need lengthened not shorter and the kaos matryx doesn't need shorter. They are not out of hand like axys kaos
I've heard he might know a thing or two also but i don't care what he runs. His is setup for him and what he does. Is it for hill climbing? For just screwing around? What you fail to mention is I'm sure he has multiple set ups.I agree with respect to the Pro.

I had a whole season on a 155 kaos boost and have the same in a 9r. They are no where near as rowdy as axys kaos 155. What's good for me doesn't mean it is good for you. Same with Keith's setup.
1. I take in info all the time. Take what i want and weed out the rest. Thats what you do in life unless your gullible.If you don't care then why even reply to me? You know everything and apparently have no ability to take in new information or data, so what's the point of even being here? Is it merely to bequeath us with all with your otherworldly knowledge of all things snowmobiles?
For fun, I'll reply.
1) Yes, I'm referring to Keith's BC setup with respect to the Khaos specifically. He shortens the limiter regardless of boost/no-boost. He probably can ride a touch better than you in the backcountry, so I'd probably take note of his settings.
2) I go to a stiffer rear spring too (he does sometimes). Makes a huge difference.
With this setup, I can still lift my skis when needed, do the silly bowtie hopover stuff and still get up the hill when needed (without just wheeling over backwards).
My boost in dead stock form would honestly get worked by a dead stock NA pro when it came to going up the hill quickly.
The pro with a slightly longer limiter (like just a touch) is a better package for most riders looking to actually ride. YMMV.
Ross is being paid to ride that thing. He was the only rider that had a "name" that didn't have a factory ride that they had a chance at. Now once you start talking Europeans, that's a whole nother conversation. I think people would be amazed at how controlled these factory riders are by what they can and can't say. Also what they can and can't post pictures of online.The pompous, egotistical, windbag Chadly speaks- we should all listen as he does know it all doesn’t he? Ross, Andreas, Jason would all ride circles around the one who keeps telling us how it is-
