I agree with the write up except I only have a black rubber powder coming off the Q-Drive belt and not much either, both my sleds are similar. None of the lint. Also found the ride very rigid compared to my 11 xp. I tried softening the suspension and the springs got too loose before I had them soft enough. For oil, got about 40:1 for both the 800 and 600 right out of the box. This said, as the fuel enonomy gets better, I expect the ratio to go higher.
