Looking at a 2011 Apex SE MPI supercharged 230hp

[Murse]

Guy wants 16000$ has 4500km's seems like an ok deal but I have a few questions hopefully people can help me out. I ride 100% groomed trail I want fast reliable and fuel efficient. Now I realize I can't have it all. I was reading that all service will have to be done twice as soon like track replacement and belts etc. My main question is this sled says has 230hp that is going to limit my mileage no? like I can get 200km's out of a tank now I'd say with supercharger cut that in half? Doesn't seem like a good thing for me. What is everyone's opinion on these issues I have. Is the supercharged sled a must have or will I be just as happy with stock and a few mods like Ulmer clutch kit.

Let me know thanks!

Supers are hard on fuel turbos are better

What controller is it running? I hear the pcv over the gems ill allow you to fine tune fuel better. Not as good as a turbo, but much better then a gems from what I was told.

230 hp i hope it has a shim, had one on my 06 i could get 160 km but had to watch throttle up graded to turbo much better on fuel as long as i'me not in the throttle too hard

Controller is pc5

Who sells turbo for apex? I checked ulmer and mpi they all do superchargers MCX does turbo, is there really that big of a difference?

Prolly 140 to 150 klicks to a tank. I used to get 165 km or so from my Super Charged RX 1 on 6 ish lbs of boost taking it relatively easy but RX 1's have a larger fuel tank and got better mileage than the Apex.

Is it a must have? No. The stocker is awesome.

Would you love it. Hell Yea !!!!!!! I went without a boosted sled for 2 years and had to get another.

His price is a little high by maybe a Grand but not too bad.
