Best year Matryx?

[bryceraisanen]

I intentionally bought the 2018 Axys RMK midway thru the generation as they had significant updates/improvements at the time that made them more reliable. It's given me ~6 years of flawless boosted riding! Only wore through one belt in all that time (2000 miles) Feel like I'm ready to move on/up. I spent a couple hours searching and reading, but haven't been able to clearly decipher progress through the Matryx years.

Is the 2024 or 2025 significantly updated compared to the first couple years of Matryx? Most likely looking for an 850 boost. Or would be open to buying a NA sled and boosting myself. TIA!

Our 2022 850 na has ran strong and been trouble free for 2000 miles

25 imo.

The throttle changes and tune are worth it for a boost.

Trs powerflow valve and run it.

(Likely the 26's will have similar from the factory)

Same with ‘22, but at 1,000. No issues. Also have ‘24 850 NA and both feel identical to me.

I have 2 2022 850 Khaos 155s. No issues at all past all the recalls. Once those are completed no worries. The one thing that annoyed me on one was the TSS was always flaky. I installed a TSS bypass on both and now no problems. The 850 is a proven engine and very good. Now from what I gather the 9Rs and boosts the biggest issue is that P22 clutch. The best fix I've seen is to just replace it with a P85. 22 through 24 are basically the same sleds with different color ways. In 25 there were more significant (but really minor) updates to the throttles, running boards and scratchers. My next sled will likely be a holdover 25 unless Polaris drops a golden goose option for snowcheck 26.

I have a 22 850 155 with a SLP 1.5 kit, it runs very well.

9R or boost ‘24+. They have changed a significant amount with the boost since 22. 25s came with some good upgrades and quiet a few changes as well (Facebook groups or this one might have a comprehensive list). The boosts keep getting better and better.
