Hey Yall!
I'm switching over to Polaris after 15 years of Doo. I have a 2021 Khaos 163 on the way. I have always geared down my sled for low-end grunt in technical terrain, and I'm wondering if my sled will come with the same low gearing people are loving on the QD2. I know (or think) the chaincase the QD2 replaces had higher gearing than QD1, but I don't know how QD2 and QD1 compare.
If the QD1 on my 163" is higher gearing (I've been told it's higher, lower, and the same by different shops LOL) can I "gear it down" somehow? I'm guessing that would take replacing one of the gears AND the belt, if that's even possible.
Cheers,
Jay
