9R VS Boost

[madmax]

I bought a 9R toward the end of the season last year. I then snowchecked a 24’ boost. I highly doubt the 9R will take the place of my boost. Riding over 9,000, you just can’t beat boost, the 24’ is going to be really good.

Do you know where you saw Caleb reviewing the 24 Boost? I would like to see that review.

I'm buddies with Caleb so I'm just going off what he personally had told me. He texts me late at night when he gets lonely

Are you guys sharing pics with each other late at night too? You can tell us.

We prefer facetiming

I like Caleb, Burandt and the Polaris riders but they are the worst source of information on Polaris products. Has anyone ever seen them have a video about issues or dislikes with Polaris products. I think they’re all good guys but remember they are all paid to like Polaris products. Hard to give objective views when that’s the case.

Haha! So true! It's like asking Pfizer if their vaccine is safe and effective

I could not decide so I bought one of each. Told the wife the 9R is hers

I’ve got a boost 155. My dad has a 9R 155. Both are great sleds and super fun to ride and hard to make a recommendation

Buuuuut my 24’ is another boost ….

I wonder if your wife beats you as hard as Terry's beats him

How much do you pay him to be buddies?

I have a 21 850 Khaos 165 currently. Slp twins and head, Sled runs awesome.have lots of other stuff done to it as well but that’s mainly the performance mods. Prefer technical tree ridding, creek bottoms and etc. no big climbing but I am also 260 lbs so I feel like I’m a little short on power dragging my fat ass around sometimes. I know it’s hard without knowing all the details and there many variables involved. Just don’t wanna spend 23k wish I would bought a boost and have to sell this sled next yr and loose 3-4k on it and have to order a boost. Mainly ride 8-12k in elevation. Appreciate all the input.

I am in your same shoes. I ride the exact same sled as you and am close in size. I have a lot of xtra s and my sled runs stong too no twins though. I am so prefer being lost and dropping into places that are **** holes. But I been thinking boost but I always wonder what a 9R with twin pipes and some higher compression and good fuel could do if it were liter and could run hard uptown would it give the boost a run for its money up top i mean at least be close and then destroy it on the bottom. What’s a 9R with 4K in the motor do

I have both a 9R and a boost The 9R won’t come close to a boost in climbing. It’s barely better then an 850. 9R is great for tight tree riding and won’t wear you out like a boost a much better all around sled but nothing remotely close to a boost when it comes to power.

Twin pipes high compression heads or anything else you could throw on it still won’t even get you close to a boost for power

So the real answer to the question is buy the boost and then build the motor to a a 9R ?

 

[shattuck]

If I understand correctly and you mean make a boost 850 a 900. In my opinion you would spend a lot of money for a very minimal performance gain

That’s what burandt is running.

But with the lightweight crank.

An 850 Boost turned into a ported 9 Boost with a tune is absolutely insane.

So who’s doing this right?

Carl’s cycle?
