I believe the spring rates in the rear suspension as well.
Your calling Shot crap huh? I'm no Doo guy and I want that sh!t. I'd also like a throttle block that I don't have to replace.
Everything is relative. SHOT is not "crap" but simply not necessary when starting is as simple as a flick of the wrist. Now if Polaris put the pull starter low down on the side of the sled like Doo and if it was hard to pull over, then yes I would want SHOT. Not saying Doo is hard to pull over. Reality is older sleds with carbs and high compression made e-start a necessity but now these things start so well, don't flood and are easy to pull. It is a feature for the weak and lazy that has a manufacturing cost attached. I also understand that if you buy a Doo you would be stupid not to have it becasue you would never sell your sled if it did not have it.
Oh man. I bet you were the guy who said reverse and oil injection were not needed either.

No, you are very wrong about that. I am big on innovation and have lots of mods/gadgets on my sled that make it ride better/easier/faster/safer. If SHOT is the the deal breaker that keeps you on a Doo then you are very short sighted.
The reality is that EFI was the norm long before E-start became the rave. LOL at "simple flick of the wrist". Mine sometimes takes two or three pulls to start when warm
.Reverse, tethers, EFI, scratchers, oil injection all added to manufacturing cost. We really don't need these either.
Do any of your innovations help to reduce fatigue during the days ride?
You guys that are trying to put words in my mouth.The reality is that EFI was the norm long before E-start became the rave. LOL at "simple flick of the wrist". Mine sometimes takes two or three pulls to start when warm

Maybe that is your opinion but not mine. If your sled doesn't start with a flick of the wrist when warm you should fix it or get rid of it. Again in your case the e-start is a band-aid for a poor starting sled. It is always a band-aid for something, poor starter, weak wrist/arm, small lady, bad positioning of the pull starter by the sled designer, or just lazy rider. There legitimately are people who need e-start, just, not me. I am not telling you to do away with it, you be you.
Dude, I don't have E-start. I can't do away with it. I said I wanted Shot.
Sometimes it starts with one pull but never with a "flick of the wrist". I by the way am plenty big and strong enough to pull start my sled. Still I want Shot!

You’re just feeding the troll. ?
He’s been going on about that “flick of the wrist” thing for what seems like 10 years already.
It’s an alternate reality/ purchase justification thing…….
Seasons over. Time to shut down Snowest until next winter when this is what is being posted about. Shot is awesome. I'd take it any day. Starting your sled by pulling it 30 times in one day is a complete waste of energy and if you actually got off the trail you would probably understand sometimes you end up in peculiar situations where it's a complete b!tch to pull start your sled. That being said I'm fine with wasting energy to pull start my sled for the weight savings on a Polaris for the time being. My attitude might change as I get older. I'll see you suckers next winter time to go enjoy my new Lamborghini I just picked up ?
Next winter? Still tons of snow to be putting up the sled here. Goodbye & good riddance Chadly.
Cars are for poor people
No one said that SHOT is a deal breaker that keeps them on a Doo. There is also no legit way to say that SHOT is not an awesome innovation. If Poo and Cat could doo it, they would too.
Don't get killed being a looky lou under a cornice getting pictures for your Instagram ? There is tons of snow left but it's junk.
I'll try my best not to. Thanks for your concern.
Junk snow is better than driving around town showing off your money.
Jesus man, how many kids ya got to have a stable of that many sleds? : )
