Out bombing around on the trails here in Collingwood with the 11 Apex and my 07 Apex, nice to have the two out together to see the difference. The EPS is certainly a nice feature, makes the sled feel a 100 lbs lighter and minimize any feel back from the trail, you can ride this thing with a drink in one hand LOL.

The handle bar warmers work great, even on low, get back on the 07 and you got crank them way up to feel any heat compared to the 11. You do sit higher on the 11, the 07 feels like a crotch rocket compare the 11. Windshield/hands are mucher warmer on the 11, the 07 stock windshield gets you right from the neck up.

Sled definately turns flatter, need to put some 7" carbides on it and see what happens when the trail base gets nice and firm.

Also the sled is quieter then my 07.

PS: made the mistake of letting my girlfriend ride it, she wouldn't give it up. She's bad!

How many attempts to start when cold before it stays going?

Really haven't notice any problems, maybe two at the most.

The drone is still there just not as bad, just have to drive through it.
