Can I get opinions?

I know there are a lot of die hard guys on here that only like what they have. I am wondering what people think of an 05 Rev 800HO 159. I have read that they are difficult to tip compared to some other sleds, and that you have to "muscle" them over.

Any info. is appreciated. Thanks

and who says there hard to lay over? non rev riders? easy to lay over.
 
I am not a big guy (150 lbs) and my 05 Summit started out as a 151 and last season I put a 162 Maverick under it. I removed the sway bar and the sled is very nimble. I can get around better now than ever and that includes some really tight tree riding. Another plus for the 159 is that it came stock with 9 tooth drivers and 19:43 gearing. The smaller drivers will give you more bulkhead clearance and the 19:43 gearing is a good set up. I would go with the 159 without a doubt.
 
The 05 Rev is one of the easiest sleds to pull over. Anybody who say's the Rev is tough to pull over, needs to eat a few more Wheaties in the morning. I found the XP a little harder to pull over than the Rev, but after learning it, I couldn't go back. The XP is the most well balanced sled ever built. The Rev feels like the Dragon, and the M IMO! It's all in the rider. Ride it for a few months, and you'll be able to pull it over just as easy as your friends do with there Dragons.
 
I think some guys feel that it's hard....at first. Lots of guys who've had these sleds take a few solid days of riding before they like them. I rented one for a couple days in 06 and it didn't take long.
