- Loaded up both my Polaris RMK and Matryx Assault and headed to Eagles Pass to ride with Jon Jean, Liam Dhillon, and Mark Newman! I chose to ride the Matryx assault and gave it a good flex in some deep snow! So stoked on how well it performed!
I like seeing the old-school boys mixing it up with the locals in fairly public places, staying humble and having fun. Turcotte I think people would like to hear you talk about your career; injuries, time with SledNecks, favorite moments. Your kind of a legend man. Shout out to the East Koots!!
Good input!! I like where your heads at on this one!
Had an awesome time riding with you boys. Definitely have to do it again. My favorite part is the dude on the bike had no idea who "Brett Turcotte" was. I told him you were the first guy to ever back flip a snowbike. His response "oh so he knows how to ride a bike then". Perfect day.
Such a blast!!! Let’s go again soon!
That was awesome, the guy asking you if he knew how to ride. Nice guy letting you take his for a rip
I find myself watching these so intently that my heads swiveling side to side as he's going through he trees, lol. Great vids.
Those lil chip shots at each is what makes these vids lil extra. FanF’nTastic content boys. Always ready for the next
We like to have fun!
Thanks for not playing music. Kinda nice!
You are working the hell out of that Lil" Matryx. Awesome riding
I'm a doo guy and I took it for a ride. I'm super impressed and I think Polaris is going to have a weapon next season.
It’s so fun!! Just hold it wide and let the skis dance!
Loved my 2020 riot x 146 in the mountains
Riding x overs is a good time!
Lmao guy like you didn't know that was Brett Turcotte that just took your bike for a ride? soo cool
Ally-oop 360? You gotta be trucking kidding me!! Well done, good sir.
That Matryx is bad ass sled !!
I friggin love it!!
Damn the 650 Assault seems better than I thought in the deep snow.
Another sweet vid! 🤘🏻
This video helped me out alot, currently own a khaos 850 155x2.75 but it's overkill for where i ride, been thinking of snowchecking a 9r khaos 146x2.0 but had some doubts of its deep snow capability but clearly from this video that track set up will rip. Thanks!
Momentum is your friend!
Come on Brett, hook that guy up with a Aero 3 setup
Haha! Maybe one day we do a Timbersled give away!?
Kind of expected deeper "pow" but I guess much deeper than that and the 146 isn't going to have the floatation it needs. And this winter has been weird so there's that. Either way it's always awesome seeing content from you.
One of the greats in the industry!
It was pretty powy haha
@@turcotte16 Vid definitely doesn't do it justice then haha. I was in McCall last week for the Fly Racing ride and we pushed powder over the hood all day. Best snow I've ever ridden in.
@@comradeeverclear4063 we all have different versions of “pow” I’ve ridden deep days over the hood this season too, watch some of my other videos if you want pow like that then
@@turcotte16 Very true! Different areas produce different types of snow.
I wish I grew up when you were hitting huge stuff
Still do. Usually in the spring time though! Mid winters for pow shredding and tree lines!!
Sounds like it could use a few more rpm or is that just me? I can’t wait for Polaris to release a 146 rmk 🤘
It could use a touch more, mostly it’s poor go pro audio but I have noticed on LONG pulls it does drop rpm, I blame it mostly on the gearing and chain case, it’s geared to do 120km/h across the lake!
Matryx Khaos 146
@@turcotte16 ahhh that makes sense why my 144 assault loses rpm too on big climbs
@@ashtonpoitras4266 for sure!! It creates heat and the motor and clutching “heat soak” and don’t perform at 100 % when this happens!
@@turcotte16 thanks! would you happen to know if there’s a gear down kit for them?
"I was gonna teach him how to shift it" lol
So good!
pretty darn good for a 146 track.
Yeah!! It shreds
Lol guy says “you know how to ride a bike”
Little bit...
That's was hilarious!
@@k2buildit hahaha! 🤷
Dude had no idea a famous x games gold medalist just took his bike for a ride! 🤘
Right
most of my miles on my sled are from the trail going up eagles! lol thats 65km a day just on the trail. And when its whooped out its a killer.
Haha it’s a long ways back there for sure
Love the content 👌
Thank you!! Working hard to get more and more uploads!
2021 matryx 146” and 2” paddles lightly ridden only trail miles never gone over 5500 rpms just out of break in
Hahaha!!
I don't know if Polaris sponsors you Brett, but they should.
They do! I love it
Slay does alley-oop, people go nuts. Turkey out here whipping them on a sled in the backcountry for shits and giggles. 🤘🏻🤣🤘🏻
So sick dude. Some top notch shit.
Haha thanks man!!
The tree run between 7 minutes and 8 minutes was that track speed mph or kph on the digital display?
KMH
They get it
I’d be blown away if the mountain line up doesn’t move into this chassis!! The axys is a great chassis but if Polaris develops a complete different mtn chassis it be a a waste of money when you have the matryx already. But companies do weird shit so 🤷♂️:)
I’m excited to see!! March 1 can’t come quick enough!
@@turcotte16 haha I know I’m like a kid counting the days till Christmas!!
Not necessarily, as the crossover still has to do trail. They may have a new mountain chassis that makes the matryx look like it doesn't belong. Just don't know until next week. Honestly if they were able to narrow up the axis (ski stance, plastics, and gas tank) and get some more tunnel clearance I don't know that it can really get any better without dropping more weight and being stronger. Carbon rails and titanium suspension with air shocks? Maybe the cost per unit could make it a reality, at least I'm dreaming it can.
My dealer was willing to give me a few "maybe..." on something coming in the engine department, but he wouldn't say anything about the chassis.
Hahah “you know how to ride a bike?” That’s so awsome, the best thing you can do when asked that Is hop on and just drop the clutch, get the big panic wheelie going on and essentially Ronnie Mac the shut out of it..
Haha next time
@@turcotte16 make sure you stall it once first too... that will get him really thinking “shit this guy is gonna kill himself”... 😂
Random question. Do you guys wear insulated monosuits?
not usually!!
Was this sled stock 42.5”front end? 146x2”? Awesome video!
Rmk 36” front end! 146x2 track
Great video, are you going to be sledding in the Manson Creek area next week?
Not sure where that is?
Hmm... 850 Matryx Pro RMK with a 155" track and QD2 would be an interesting sled. Is your Matryx lighter than the previous years Axys? I have been debating between suspension and gearing for my 2019 or a new one. I'm curious what we will see this Monday.
You know you'll need a new one. I need more used axys on the market to get my buddies to start out!
That would be a sick sled for sure!! I don’t think the matryx is any lighter, but it feels amazing to ride! So nimble!
Where did you get the deck on your truck...dets please
Nice
hahaha “know how to ride a bike” hahaha
friggen hilarious! “you know that’s Brett Tourcotte? hahaha Yeah I think he might know how to ride a bike 😂
Hahahahaha
👍
What was that whining sound at the 8 min mark when you had it trenched ?
I sucked the belt down into the sheaves by riding the brake quite hard, it came back tho!
What are your thoughts on taking that 146 through snow that is quite a bit deeper than that?
She’ll go!
Do u have a setup for more narrow ski stance
Do you have or can you do a video on the flat bed on your truck. I need info!!
I did do a video! Check out my page
Did you narrow the ski stance?
Yes I run the RMK react front end on this sled! It’s a direct bolt up fit! Changes the ski stance from 42” down to 36”
@@turcotte16 awesome! I have a 2021 144 and I just can’t move it around very well and get it up on edge and am thinking about getting an rmk or khaos. I might just look into a new front end then now. Thanks!
@@bengriep3171 Look into your suspension setup. It really surprised me how much easier it was getting on edge once I got it all balanced out and soft enough to move, while being firm enough to stay up in the stroke. It took a couple re-valves, spring changes, and preload adjustment but it's like a different sled now.
Please more sends
Next sunny day, game on!!!
stock clutch????
Is this a khoas slash or switchback assualt? 850 or 650?
SBA 850
🔥
Cool but not nearly as tight as Muskoka Freerider
Seems like it just needs a bit more HP and that wouldn’t of happened 😝 just playin bro wikid vidya
Haha I see you
dude, for the love of god, do not drink that garbage, your only going to regret it later in life.
I’m an athlete for monster energy, I drink them, and not coffee. I just had a full medical physical done recently that showed zero issues with having one per day. My liver, my heart, all my organs are at top performing levels for my age group. Thanks for looking out for me though!!
