sell um to me Nate...
I rode my buddy's 163X the other day for a bit. He rode my M8, and couldn't believe how much easier it was to pull mine into a sidehill. I'm ABSOLUTELY not bashing, just asking: Is there any way to get the XPs to pull over easier? We pulled the sway bar links, but is there anything else? It's a great machine, but just something we were curious about. By the way, his so far, has been absolutely trouble free!

we set the front track shock with 1 1/4" threads showing above the shock...and the front a arm shocks as light as possible.....my 105# grandson can side hill our 154's no problem...try this
I ordered 2 of the Gates 43X4320 belts for my XP @ less than $50 each.
They can't be any worse than the BRP belts, and I'm getting a few hundred miles
out of those. I can live with that cost .
I get my belts at my local dealer. That's not even getting them at a bro deal.
Your probably right, if I would have spent 12k on my sled I'd be pissed if something was wrong. Foratuneantly for me I only spent $9,500 on mine, so I have room to b**ch about the hand warmers. I figured I can live with cold hands for the fun factor of this sled. Thanks for your concern, but I have to get back to fantasy island with all the other XP owners now.
I'm with you- I just like to gas and go- and that's what I do after my initial
clutch dialing in the stock unit.
After reading this load of crap website I was actually scared of the Doo clutch,
but it is great to be able to adjust the clutch in a couple of minutes for altitude,
belt changes, snow conditions, etc. without major clutch work. I've never adjusted my Polaris clutches, and wouldn't know how. Not an easy option.
This site is like the evening news.
Veery Skeery!

My 600'do ain't stock but uses the stock belt, thats the going rate $160-$180 for a new Poo belt....
$9600 for mine- bought in another state - no tax
10,000.oo with skid plate installed, xtra belt, plugs,
setup and altitude tuning. Gas would have been
expensive, but the riding was great.

You forgot #4 most people that don't ride xp's are because they scare the crap out of them ,all that power, and climb way to high ,they just get way to scared , and like you said definately kills stock yamaha's .
Doo has a winner. I will buy one next year for less than any old m7 ,d7, or maybe old poo 900.

Damn Graveler...do you have a crush on the XP or what?? It's getting a little ridiculous. You spend more time posting on XP threads than most people that actually own one. Man up and buy one already instead of making up BS excuses.
just my 2 centson it all. i ride stock 07 M8 and love the fact that its tuff, reliable, cheap to run(never blown a belt switched half way through my 1000 miles, hahaha BRP owners, and regular fuel) i ride the balls off this baby and when the guys around me in there 800R's are all blowing up for various reasons around 1400km. that means my sled would have had to blow up a couple hundred miles ago. it may not be the best but its the best for me im sure i would have crumpled a few bomby's by now. oh and ive never heard such thing as a reliability problem on the M-series yet
I'd a bought a M-series Cat except the reliability worried me- just from experiences of fellow riders, though most were not M- series. No bashing
intended, and I've been wrong more than once.

3) Last but not least, people that do not have one, prefer their lil red wagon of a sled that gets them to the base of the hill...just so they can admire the awesome power and handling of XP's scorching highmarks .....but then it happens....as though it was something else disappearing way up in the sky... they start calling in the UFO sightings....
fixed it for ya!
