    The old TRA clutches have clickers right from the factory too.

    you guys have the best sled channel ever, the editing is great, the footage is great, you boys in front of the lens do a great job as well, some the of the other channels are hard to watch by comparison, keep it up

      DEVUNK88 I'm with you 100%; weather you agree with their content or not, it's delivered well.

    Die cast front bulkhead? Sounds like something that could crack from energy transferred from the a-arms- if you were to hit something.

    I asked this question to other youtubers and I was wondering what would be a good cheap suspension upgrade for my 2016 polaris scrambler 850 it rides fine now but it bottoms out hard in the front if you go off of a big jump, so what would you guys recommend to get?

      B Breckner Elka shocks or get new springs

    I guess the gen4 body work is an acquired taste. Don't know what they were thinking when they came up with design. probably along the lines of "how can we make it look like a modified angry, transgender, vegan, feminist, millenial, hipster storm trooper"

    • @snowtrax

      SnowTrax Television I find it pathetic that you guys at snowtrax are so biased towards Polaris that you laugh at a comment like this. Show some respect for the people that continue to innovate this market. And instead of being a fake news source with bias towards different sleds. Skidoo outdid all the manufactures this year just like they did in 15' with the 174 and 12' with the t motion suspension and 03' with the rev.

  • @mik_maccc
    @mik_maccc Před 7 lety

    so basically if i didn't want the extra commentary i could just go the skidoos website and pretty much every word he said is there... on the page for the gen4

      Mike M Or make your own video.

    why is ski doo all about oil economy? 40% better oil economy than the already good 800r? Id rather have better lubrication to ensure my engine doesnt blow up faster than the competition. I mean the 850s technology seems to be better at keeping the engine better lubricated, but its ski doo, so theyre probably not going to be as reliable as claimed to be. Still tho, id rather ride a ski doo than anything else

    • @sledcrewqc1911
      @sledcrewqc1911 Před 7 lety

      they changed the amount of oil send for the 850 in the summit, because it wasn't enought for mountain riding, so don't worry

  • @team_tcr-5415
    @team_tcr-5415 Před 7 lety

    Lol 4 stroke reliability my ass ! Blowing motors at hm 900km? And how about them bulk heads 😂😂😂😂

  • @megcroft9236
    @megcroft9236 Před 7 lety +11

    this is so ugly it's sad ski doo had to make a 850 to keep up with the rmk

    • @maineachuntingfishingandsl2244
      @maineachuntingfishingandsl2244 Před 7 lety +15

      They made an 850 for a 30% faster throttle response. They are constantly trying to improve handling. I can't say the same for polaris. Constantly getting weaker and less reliable. The sleds look awesome!

    • @megcroft9236
      @megcroft9236 Před 7 lety

      Maineac Hunting , fishing, And sled Edits the ski doo 800s should be considered a 600 class they aren't as light as the rmk not as cool looking and it has zero balls the whole brp company sucks also I'll tell you ski doo is just as unreliable as polaris and there shit is a whole lot weaker than polaris also the sad thing is it has as much horsepower as the 800 rmk I mean u would think a 850 would have more and unlike you I research every single sled brand there shit suck polaris or nothinh

      Meg Croft the 800 Axys is only making 150hp on most dynos.

    • @440x
      @440x Před 7 lety +8

      Meg Croft what kind of crack you been smoking the axys 800 isn't a match for the 800 etec let alone the 850

    • @megcroft9236
      @megcroft9236 Před 7 lety

      440x why do u think shit doo made the 850 uh becuz their 800 isn't nearly as great as polaris their 800 should be a 600
