    Where Do You Go Now

    We started the transition to BRP in '23 with my wife's new sled after she totaled her Venture. She was very happy with it and I spent some time on it too. I liked it enough to order my '24 MXZ 850 Turbo. I still planned to keep the SW and shortly after spring order Yamaha announced their end...

    Took the 2 smokes out

    A couple friends and I almost went out last Friday. If mine weren't already summerized we would have done it. Officially ZERO miles this year!

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    Current miles are not too far off. I ride more than he does. When mine was brand new it was worse. It has loosened up some but not like his. Makes sense, I haven't messed with mine at all. I ordered a '25 so my '21 is for sale. Will be interesting how the '25 runs with him. He's planning on...

    Sidewinder Year to Year Performance

    My friends '17 is faster than my '21. Really not sure why other than my '21 has always felt really tight compared to his. No parking brake needed on mine when parked on a hill. His will roll down plus another 100 yards lol.

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    The SE shocks could be my problem. We have one LE in our group, and have rode his SW, but I'm not sure I noticed a difference and honestly wasn't paying attention. I'm planning on ordering a '25 SRX so if I'm able to secure one, my '21 will go down the road.

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    Could be, not sure anyone has had a chance to compare. So far I have less recalls than my Boost friends lol Thanks, happy so far but this will be my first trip with it. Heading to Cable WI. I agree the forecast looks dismal. My weekends in Jan are full of non sled related stuff with my first...

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    Still no snow anywhere near me this year so nothing to report on the 850 turbo. This thread is comical to say the least. I still think most here are missing the point of this new sled. It was never intended to be the "Lake King". It's designed to be a fast bump sled. Is it faster on the trail...

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    It will be fun to compare the 2 machines. We have 2 other Winder's in our group and they are looking forward to running me. All machines are stock. Interestingly, the '17 SW in our group is the fastest of the 3.

    Maybe I'll put the SnoScoot back in there to help out lol

    The Winder is out numbered now lol

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    Picked them up Friday. My daughter is coming from a FX Phazer to the Neo+. It should be a perfect sled for her and for my 10 yr old eventually.

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    I went 1.375 on mine. I don't need to push it and damage anything.

    Early dyno reports (850R)

    I noticed that too. I'd have to watch it again but it looks like it's not there when he started but showed up during disassembly. To me it looks like rusty water that dried. It appears to be on the plastic also.

    Hurricane needle bearing upper gear

    I won one at the Giveaway Ride and installed it at the beginning of last season. I'll also be pulling mine apart in the next couple weeks for inspection.
