Great walkaround .It comes with a pullcord to ! Every sled should have electric start and a pullcord . Cheers !
Agree. Always have a backup plan.
I bought this sled this year.....put 750 miles on it.....loved it
Awesome!
Man Mark is the best, cracks me up, he is so right about how the starters used to sound!
I really enjoy these in season detailed walk around videos. Keep up the good work and I’m glad you have snow.
Thank you!
Very thorough and honest description. You are still one of the best. Enjoy the riding season!
Appreciate that! 🙏
Ilove these new Indy’s trail sleds. One day I will have one and upgrade. Thanks for the great videos guys and loving SnowTrax being back again!
Thank you!!
I bought an Adventure 650 last year, it showed up in February so I didn't get many miles on it but I came from the Liberty 800 Pro S and I am more than pleased with the Matryx and the 650.
Just need more snow to get the trails open. great review Mark
Move.
Sierra snow depth, 65" to 300" (165cm to 760cm+)
Thanks for another great video. Thanks for taking the time to review models that are not hypersleds. Just an FYI, Polaris does make the 650 Indy SP in 129 and 146. The gauge is called the "Polaris message center" not PIDD, the PIDD is the old color GPS system on the AXYS chassis that is now discontinued. That track is the ripsaw 2.
I’m definitely looking forward to spending a couple days on VR1 Boost demos this season.
I have the old Polaris sp 600 2016 and it gets good gas mileage and rides pretty nice . Maybe one day I will get to try the newer Polaris sp .
Good stuff again Mark.
Love you quirky dry jokes. "Illigal aliens ".
Hope you get to do a review on a Adventure.
Cheers.
Keep it up.
👍
I literally search for a video on this sled every single week! Finally found one!
Nice review of an awesome sled.I'd love to try that 650 !
great job, luv these reviews/overviews
Thank you!!
Great review!
Great video as usual Mark! I know you guys like the Ice Ripper track but I’d rather stud that Ripsaw2 much more traction.Other than shocks it looks like a great sled.
Nice job! Good looking sled!
Love the reviews guys!!! This is a sharp looking sled as well!! Keep up the great work gents! Cheers 🍻🍻
I rented one in the UP. Very good sled. Fast. 97mph indicated and great pull everywhere. Basic suspension. Adequate economy with dual mapping for 87 or 91non oxy. Must be set manually! Would liken the ride to sc5 skidoo skid. A good value! Not as refined as a 600 or 800 etec sled or as good as an R-motion skid.
Well done review, nice sled .
great job!
Thanks!
Good review.. Just wondering. I dont have the numbers in from of me but if I'm not wrong Polaris shows the est.weigt of the same size XC to be less than 500 plus # of the SP.. Where is the diff??.. Correct me if Im wrong..
I like it thanks
Don't be alarmed about that thing not starting on the first crank. The first crank energizes the system, and the second fires it up. It's not the same EFI setup as an etec. Some Matryx will start on first try. Most won't
It's a polaris give it a few years and it wont start at all.😂
Nice job.
I’ve been waiting for a review of one of these. Been wanting a new sled coming off a 2001 indy but don’t want to spend a whole lot of money.
This is a great machine.
Mark, the real question is how much pemmican can you fit behind the gauge? 😂 love the videos keep it up
😁
I'd love to ride something like this but can't bring myself to get one. For what sleds cost today, I have to go with a 4 stroke because I'd have a 2 stroke worn out long before the loan was paid off.
That is and interested sled well equipped for me personally, the best for last is the 650 SP. I like your humour sir.💪🇨🇦😎
Thank you! 👍
The Edge Chassis sleds have the same noise.
Thats the multifunction gage. Pidd was the color gps gage in the axys
ok
If I hear Mark say "modulation" one more time... lmfao. J/K. Nice review on a base model.
I wonder if Polaris will turbo a 650?
I love cheeseburgers 🍔 😂 great video.
I have never looked at a snowmobile and wanted to know the track length
I'm usually way more curious about the engine size
I have a 2022 650 VR1 and my friend has a 2023 SP 650 exactly like the one you reviewed. Mine might ride better with the Walker Evans shocks, but you won't get a better sled for your money than the SP. As far as gas milage, we'll I am 69 yrs, and ride with 850's and at the pumps there might be a dollar difference in a fill. I haven't found any sled I owened to be much different on fuel. Even my Viper was the same as the 850's. My 600 e tec was better but not by a wide margin. Good review of the sled.
Appreciate that. Thanks for the comments.
Polaris needs to put some cushion in their seat. It's like riding on a cinder block
The SP is also available in the 146 with the 1.6 track
True.. but that is known as a switchback, not just an "indy." I'm actually thinking of buying a switchback SP next season.
it's nice enough, but not nice enough to get me to switch from my SC black lightning 16 pro-s 600 rush, yet. i do want something a bit longer and less floaty in deeper snow, but not as long as my hubby's assault sb. not like w can ride right now even if there was snow... we're still waiting for the recall parts being 16 and 18 for our sleds.
Boys, get your dad a laser light so he doesn't have to bend down and F his back. lolol... always love the vids fellas. Cheers
It's not a bad idea 👍
@@snowtrax id like to see it 🤣
That’s their uncle I believe but they definitely should 🤣
@@mturley8414 definitely their dad they've mentioned it in a bunch of videos
I have a question for you guys. I have ridden older sleds off and on for about 15 years, and I've never really been that big into it, but this year, I have really been wanting a new sled and riding more I live on the Idaho-montana border so I am wanting a mountain sled what would you guys suggest I would like to stick with polaris
We've got a shootout of the Khaos vs Freeride coming up. Stay tuned!!
How much weight does the electric start add to a sled? Does it vary between models and manufacturers?
It's a good question. Will look into this to get accurate info for you.
It's typically 20 pounds. It will only vary by 1-2 pounds depending on battery placement, mounting brackets and required wiring length.
I wonder how this sled would perform with like a 1.75 or 2.0 backcountry track on this for off trail!!
Polaris makes the Switchback SP with a 146 and a 1.6 Cobra track for off-trail fun times.
The real question is how he knew Bob was my uncle😅
Is there a drastic fuel consumption difference between the 650 and 850 if ridden by the same by an aggressive rider? Thanks
Yes my 850 50% fuel wife’s 650 80% fuel backcountry 60 miles 2ft sugar snow
@@davidkolisnek6601 thanks !
Are all the recalls done on these?
The fix has been determined and dealerships have been actively doing the repairs. Not sure if everyone has been completed but it has been underway for some time now.
If this is the New New, what happened to the switchback??? Was it a phase, are they still good, or avoid at all cost?!
there's still a few i just checked.
I have a 06 144 600 switch back awesome sled love it 🤘😝
5 Cheesburgers... lol!
Reminds me of a SnoJet in those colors.
Sounds like a nice sled. Evinrude knew the EPA wanted to ban two stroke outboard Motors so they hired a German Engineering firm to develop Direct Injection. Thus no raw fuel going out the exhaust port because there is no fuel in the cylinder until after the piston comes up and covers the exhaust Ports.
Bombardier Bought Evinrude and used this Direct Injection technology on their sleds.
I know Bombardier owns the Patent when will it run out or when will Polaris and Arctic Cat Pay Royalties for this Technology so they can get much better fuel economy and emissions too?
My first sled is I think a 1992 Model Polaris Indy 500 with Fuel Injection. Polaris only used it was they were too cheap to pay Rocky Mountain Performance or whomever developed the system the Royalties they agreed to.
Seems If I recall Polaris got sewed for $1 Million and stopped using that Fuel Injection system after only one or two model years.
This sled is pull start only but if you don't have a big strong battery in it there is not enough fuel pressure for it to start.
Of course Skidoo has a super magnet charging system that generates a lot of amperage at pull cord speeds and it fires first pull normally .
Oh ya....Evinrude.....that is another thing I dont like about Polaris
I’m a skidoo guy, but I like how Polaris engines still sound like 2strokes of the past, the skidoo etec is kinda boring sounding to me
And how much will we be spending for all this Polaris joy and happiness? It appears to actually fill a few holes in the Polaris lineup!
$14,999 CA, $12,999 US
My buddy's daughter just bought this same sled. It's awesome!!!!!
Going to get one this winter I live in northern Ontario need a 2up setter me my lovey wife
How come you have snow?
It's just a lil tiny bit.
Polaris should have the old pidd Gauge as the base gauge!! Instead of that Atari looking gauge!!
You must be new to snowmobiling. You need the track length on the side of the tunnel ? Go back a few years and nobody did. Shocks at all four corners ? I didn’t know the rear was considered a corner.
Yes, we're very new to the sport. Never actually ridden one of these confounded snow machines before...
I'm not sure how i feel about the jackshaft braking, it's like the brakes on a car or truck being before the differentials, there's a reason why it's not done on cars and trucks, it puts way to much stress on the drive line. You're basically stopping the rotation when the wheels are still being propelled by the vehicles momentum.
Bob is my uncle
Pretty bad when a $15,000 sled is considered value, add freight, PDI and taxes and everything it's $19,000 Canadian out the door.
Sleds ain't cheap these days!
Next time you do one of these go in a barn you were freezing to death are you having too much to drink? I don’t know lol.
a skidoo mxz 850 weighs 480lbs, i wouldnt exactly say a 650 that weighs 29lbs more is "pretty impressive"
What makes this thing so heavy? If that over 500 lbs number is accurate it's not even close compared to the MXZ or Renegade Sport offerings from Doo that weigh around 450.
While going to "comparable" models a Renegade 850X weighs 486 pounds.
Indy 850 VR1 weighs 467 pounds for a 19 pound weight savings. Add the electric start if pull starting is too much for you, and the VR1 is 487 pounds.
Don't forget, the Polaris then has a back up rope starter, shocks with actual adjustment capabilities, remote reservoirs, and a modern gauge instead of the tiny 1985 Subaru inspired orange gauge...all for just one pound difference.
How much does it weigh with fuel and oil? I know my 850 renegade is close to 550 filled up
So this is where all the 650s went. I called 30+ dealers during the morning hours of snow-check and couldn’t get a 650. Levi LaVallee got a few 650s. Easily got a 650 for 2022 but was forced to get an 850 for 2023.
Everything except an MSRP?
$14,999 CA, $12,999 US
At 15:46 you claim that the Polaris doesn't have a pyramidal frame??? Did you ever look at the Polaris parts catalogue, and look at the frame. If that is not a pyramidal design than maybe you can explain what type it is?? Than you claim Polaris never got caught in that problem? Explain??
Say proprietary one more time.
That's what happens when a company has a bunch of innovative new technology in it.
proprietary
Bobs “your” uncle!
@ML my wife rolls her eyes every time I say that..
Love it!!
You get one of these cheap ones than get a set of Elkas!! Done....
That would do it!
You read my mind
Don't need the track length on there...
Yet there it is...
$7999
Are we negotiating?
That's not a pidd Guage
They call that the standard display the pidd Guage is in color but smaller than the 7s
He annoyed
7s display. Mark is getting dyslexia 🤓
