[biggdaddy]

I am a big guy about 280lbs thinking of getting a holdover M1000 is there any major issues with the 08 I should be concerned about ? Thanks Jeff

Buy it! Don't give over $7,200.00 for it brand new if it's an '08. You won't be disappointed.

Where can I get one for 7200

I am thinking of going with a 08 just because of the cash I would love to find one for 7200 new but from what I have seen the 09 sleds are slit more than the 08 just a cash reason anyone know the best place for best price would be great I live near Seattle and am willing to travel 8 hours at the most. Again thanks for any help. Jeff

I understand the cash issue. But People have been buying 09's for 8500-8900 and I would pay 2500 more for a new 09 over a 08 any day. I've had an 07 and 09, Its not even comparable in how much better they are then the 07-08's. I would go with a hcr if cash was an issue.

What he said!!!

This is an $8500.00 brand new 09. its lighter, its better, it has the good electro reverse. Buddy added the 2010 seat and its nice.

These are all over the place and a steal at $8500.00....They friggin rip!

But the real story is this....Who's highmark do you think is in this bowl? Hint it wasnt laid down by my XP.....That buddy of mine sat his fat lazy arse down on he seat, held the flapper to the bars and marked not only me and my lil' XP but another 163 XP and a 162 M8. Photos dosent tell the whole story here. No room to get a run, sugar snow without a base worth crap and it was way steeper than it looks on camera. M1000's rip.

Absolutely nothing wrong with an 08 M1000. Some add on's like an SLP Y pipe, single pipe and can with fuel controller, will make this sled rip!!
If I runs good in all configurations with these add ons, don't get it reflashed(ECU), as I stumbled through the reflash process. Wish I hadden't done the reflash.(IMO). Good Luck

Did you find any numbers that worked on the BD box with the slp setup and the 09 reflash?

x2 on nothing wrong with the '08. The '09 is lighter and has the engine reverse, but you can do all of this to the '08 too, as money allows. In fact, the telescoping bars and tunnel change parts work as well on the '08. My 08 is an awesome sled and currently has a few XP's wondering just which way is up.

And, you can get the 08s cheap!
