Yet another XP problem.....

[tech a]

Due to the amazing climbing ability, they have now rendered the
Rocky Mountains obsolete....guess I'm moving to Tibet

Seriously though, this is the first non-Polaris I have owned and it is a climber.
Still running pretty much stock, haven't even geared down yet or done any venting, just followed Slim's belt break-in and secondary advice and so far, so good. Rode Kilgore Idaho this weekend and even my Polaris buddies liked
it. Unfortunately my riding is over as I have to go back to work, but, I am
happy so far. Future mods will be to do the gear change (19), venting, HPS
can and maybe a helix, but that is about it.
Thanks again to ID Slim and Snojo for all they do.

Another convert to the DOO darkside, You will never be the same Techie ....... Since now you can reach the "High Altitudes" where the Oxygen is minimal, you will now need extensive training on the aspects of "Lighter than Gravity" ..

Tell yer other POO buddies, they will soon join you "Luke" ..............

Glad you like yer new XP, wait till you git back from the Cali beaches, Jo and i will have the few remaining bugs worked out and installed on your XP, be AFRAID! .Be VERY !afraid

Rode in Sicamous / Salmon Arm for the last 3 days with my new 800 dragon and came across 3 or 4 new xp's. 1 had some serious belt slip issues and was struggling to get around well, but the rider seemed happy with the handling and was optimistic with the sled turning out. Another smoked his belt backing out of his enclosed trailer and then proceeded to spit rocks all over several vehicles in Hunters Range parking lot while a buddy held up the back end and he pinned it. Then the jackass ignorantly brushed off a rider with us who asked to not have his paint sandblasted off and pulled it back into his enclosed. The 3rd one looked like it was doing well but I never had a chance to talk to its owner. It was carving and climbing well but did not seem any better than the 800 dragon. All in all they looked ok, but not dominant at all compared to any of the other top sleds out of the box.

W T F does you story have to do with........

................ how our sleds are performing. The scenario you wrote I could easily recount substituting POO riders, CAT riders or Yamhahas..........

You seem to be trying to implicate all XP owners/riders are dork parking lot racers who dont know anything, LMFAO!

You just have XPenis envy

Not at all Slim, just stating that 2 outta 3 xp's that I got to see up close had serious belt issues and the one that was running good looked fine but not that much better or worse than a dragon 800 or m1000.

Woah, you Doo boys are sensitive. Ive been riding with my buddy on a 163" XP, and it works great (holy crap!). 120 or so miles i believe, no belt issues, hand warmers still work, and it seems to work quite well all the way around. We're unsure when the break-in mode is over, but so far so good. The one he's riding was a "late build?" one, so that may have something to do with it. Either way, its lookin pretty good so far, and thats comming from a Cat rider.

Idaho Slim----You can lead a horse to water--but can not make him drink.


This statement has happened to you all season for you trying to help--bunch of yahoooo's.

I know of several XP owners that have been reading and are actually using your tips--maybe to late(after blowing a belt or two)--but now doing what you have ssuggested from your experiance.

It is appreciatted--all your info

Now stop being a rabble rouzer!!!

Have a great New Years!!
