Some seat time on my 600 Proride

[enis750]

Ok full disclosure first:

-26kms trail and field only
-limited snow
-this is the first time out on the sled

plain and simple SLED PULLS HARD!
Wow.... Coming from a REV 800.... This thing rips
Had a quick fun race w my cousin who is on a etech 800 154 and..... I was maybe only 1.5 sleds behind
And neither of us hooked up proper off the line

Was on and off the the throttle to break er in
So happy i got the base RMK, as temps never got above 128 w scratchers down
Honestly guys and gals this sled is awesome

I was begining to wonder if i made the right choice and i KNOW i did
I only get west once a yr or maybe two so this was and IS the sled for me
Does not feel under powered at all
And wow is it easy to pull over.... Seriously easy but yet stable

Powder pros are awesome on the trail and in deeper snow

Sorry dont mean to go on, but i cant wipe this grin off my face

Good to hear a report on the 600. I would really like to get one for my wife. At least that's what I'm telling her. The truth is I want to switch out with my Pro 800 every so often. I would love to do a 660/685 kit to it. I think it would be a blast to run it against 800's.

I rode a friends PRO 600 last weekend. Very fun sled.

Sled went down today
Lost all coolant
Not sure what heppened... Engine bay was clean
Pissing out right in front of the track

Dealer says pinhole in the HE or temp sensor stuck open
Coolant bottle empty
If it wasnt for the temp gauge id have seized it up for sure

Will report back once i have it back
Not stoked.... Hopefully something easy

check the bleed screw on the thermostat housing, mine came out on the way up mtn, i found it in belly and had a wrench to tighen it.

 

[enis750]

Well got it into the dlr today
They found a faulty weld at the front of the cooler on the left side
Had to order a new tunnel
5 days for parts and a few to fix er up

Thank god for warranty as this prob isnt a cheap fix, but also a weird Flaw i guess??
No snow heres anyways so im not out too much at this point

I had that same problem on an 03 800 edge, the front cooler was leaking at a weld. They took it to a local shop and had it welded, I was only down a day. That was my choice, they would have replaced but the down time would have been way way longer. You might ask if your dealer will do the same and you will have your sled back alot sooner. FYI mine never leaked again.

 

[MARV1]

I'd have it welded as well, quicker and cheaper.

 

[RMK FREAK 800]

Very happy with my 600, so far only have 35 miles of break in time 7900 rmp is the highest i've got
