Hey guys,
I'm new to the sled world and plan to buy a sled for this next season. I'm looking for opinions on what I should buy and what to look for in a sled.
A little background, I am a very experienced rider and mechanic. I raced ATV motocross for 13 years, part of that on the national circuit, pro-am level. So I'm looking for a sled that will fit that style of riding (motocross style, big jumps, maneuverable). I live in Iowa, so I would like a sled that I can use around here on the trails but also plan to make a trip west 1-2 times per year. I'm not concerned with hill-topping in the mountains, but I do want enough motor to get through powder for jumps. I worked with Can-Am and Warnert Racing on a project last year, through that, I became partial to Ski-Doo. I think I want a 800 REV XP, I just don't know much about them. What do you guys recommend? is the REV a good sled for my type of riding? what size track/lugs should I look for? What is the difference between the REV and REV XP? Is there a difference? Are there any known problems with the 800 REV?
My budget is around $4000.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. I'm pumped to get on a sled!!
