I like how they still have the classic 2 stroke sound.... whereas the etec has lost that tune. Why did you get the heavy duty springs? Do you double ride a lot? You’re a small guy and the stock should be dialable for you...
The factory springs just aren't enough. Yes I only weigh 180 but they are too soft for me. I would also rather have the HD spring on setting 1 instead of having the soft ones on setting 4. I don't want that spring wound up all the time if that makes sense. Goes back to my car racing days and understanding how springs react and work
Polaris still needs to figure out a better solution for where to put the oil tank, if you spill any, guess where it ends up and what happens! Ask me how i know!
Nice lookin shop bud! I got the 2012 proclimb in the garage, gonna clutch and new 2.6 track. im excited to get some throttle therapy. Now we just need some more snow.
Jesse, I have my 850 Matryx at the dealer with no front shocks. They have no idea when they will be in. I saw you took your stock ones off and replaced with these: 2.0 Zero QS3 Ski Shocks - 850-04-003 Do you recommend? Likely you have not ridden yet, but past experience? Or.....will you sell your stock shocks? :P
Hey Dan. I highly highly recommend them. They are not only the easiest shocks to adjust but they are super good quality. If they had a whole set for the Matryx I would be running them without a question. I will not be selling the velocities because when I trade this sled in a need to put back to stock!
im not a fan of covers because It beats the sleds up but I knew It was going to rain on the way to drop It off so I had covered It. The ride home was supposed to be no rain so I left It uncovered and didnt want to scratch anything
Hey Justin, Those are Fox QS3's. I had a whole set for my switchback and I will be running the fronts on my Matryx. Unfortunately they dont make a full set for them yet
@steve timleck the WE shocks are gold right now!! Dealers here in Canada are putting machines in the show room with no front shocks, just steel bars where the shocks would be.
I'm still waiting for my 850 VR1 cant wait. I'm here in Ct. did you get an email from Polaris to say it was shipped to your dealer. What stye track did you get Let your girl do the walk threw next time I would've watched the whole video lol
I did get an email from Polaris but It was already delivered and at the dealer when I got the email. I got the cobra 1.35 but I will be swapping It out for a 136 cobra 1.35 as well. probably wont make any sense now but stay tuned and It will!
Oh. If you had only got those cool hand shields.
I put them on after the fact. Changed just about everything on the sled from this video!
how did you land this girl?
Get lucky every now and then!
Oil is most likely coming from the donut between the Y pipe and the pipe. Needs a good heat cycle and it should seal up.
Had a brain fart while filming. Appreciate the heads up
It was good to see the sled up at Pine Tree last weekend ! See ya on the trail.
Garlic Man!! Nice to meet you this weekend! Hope to see you again!

I also get cold, which is why I opted for the heated seat
Nice option. I almost went with that as well!
Should be picking mine up any day. I've noticed alot on TH-cam got the same colors. If I dont see much variation when I ride, ill probably wrap it.
@@paultremelling9323 I will be changing mine up. not a wrap but will be changed soon!

I know It is a slippery slope just have to be super careful!
Are you have to do is paint the inside of the windshield flat black it works great I do it to all my Sleds it doesn't Peel off Great Sled
that is on the to do list yes!
Nice sled but I will still stick with the leader in Skidoo! Rotax power and etec reliability! Happy riding from Wisconsin
Right on! They make a great product I am just sold on what Polaris has going on currently! Have a great season!
Does the RCA plug pre-installed? Or you have to install it yourself?
you/the dealer has to instal It. I believe the new sleds are plug and play. I had the dealer do It
Kubeckas! Nice man. Congrats on the new sled and great work on the channel 👍
Hes a great guy and thank you I appreciate It!
The way that was smoking at the dealer. I`d say it`s oil for the Y pipe.

@@JESSEJAMES322 Thanks for the info!
Wow that new screen on the dash is huge! Sleds sure have came a long way over the years
Beautiful sled
Thank you I appreciate It!
Nice sled bud. Why cover the trade in sled during transport & not the new sled?
im not a fan of covers because It beats the sleds up but I knew It was going to rain on the way to drop It off so I had covered It. The ride home was supposed to be no rain so I left It uncovered and didnt want to scratch anything
Hey man, wicked sled, what fox shocks are those?
Hey Justin, Those are Fox QS3's. I had a whole set for my switchback and I will be running the fronts on my Matryx. Unfortunately they dont make a full set for them yet

Good looking sled! Will you have some video of your buddy’s assault? Wanting to get a matrix also. Thanks
Yes I will once it comes in!
Stealthy look
Thank you!
Buffalo I see.
