Was down in the Black Hills this weekend and we went into an area that had a fairly steep side hill with a creek bed below it. Friend of mine was riding a 08 m8 tried first lost it and slid down and got stuck. I tried it on my 02 700 rmk lost it and slid down right behind him. we got the sleds out and I went back up to help a new rider with us who has never been any were but the flats and diches. He didn't want to roll his new Assault, so he wanted me to ride it down. Holy crap! I have never rode anything so easy to hold on a side hill. The sled held the line with very little effort. I can't imagine what a narrower ski stance and deeper lug would be capable of. Rode it a couple more times that day and found it hard to give it back. Are the Pro's much differant to ride?
 
The powder track makes a huge difference and the suspension mounting on the pro makes it a lot better. And the narrower stance helps a lot
 
Yeah, even better in the powder...easiest sled in the world to side hill, turn up,turn down,whatever it just does it.
 
I love mine ! it has the 155 and boost. I loved the stock sled with the turbo its like crack. Compared to my 900RMK its like a dream. I have also been considering the Narrower RMK front end as wel.l If it could be made better than Im all in.
 
i like the narrower front end the pro i have the assault with the wider one and i can ride my dads pro much better in the trees

No offense, but welcome to Fall 2010!
 
Compare it to MSRP and i give you a ZERO % chance.

A buddy just got a orange '12 Pro w/ extended warranty for $9400.

That price will be more than 2k less than a '13 i bet. And you wont wait til december for a new sled to arrive.

To each his own, but '12 holdover deals are great right now. Guys are paying less for new sleds/ with warranty, than what some are asking for their used sleds. Does suck for some, but thats what happens when you feel you need the latest and greatest...
