How are you liking the updated clutching on the 9r? I haven’t been out yet since getting the recall done! Also that color way is probably the best looking sled on the snow!
The sled is working awesome but revving a bit high for our elevation (6000-7500 ft). I'll likely test some heavier weights. First I'll call my dealer and see what they've done for other guys with the same sled riding in the same area. Thanks for the comment!
@@JasonCaville yeah I ride not very often, but your videos are very good. I like how it’s not to fancy edited like others, I just like the raw uncut videos better in my opinion.
It it seems like you’re really loving the 9R. Any good time at altitude where power loss occurs yet? On hard pack trails like in the north east America, the scratchers really come through. Even on a trail sled with smaller lugs than you, the snow can be so hard the scratchers are sometimes a must for lube and cooling.
I haven't noticed power loss at all. It pulls very hard and is crazy responsive. It does rev high though, 8700RPM. Those scratchers seem awesome so far! Where in the north east do you ride? Just curious. Thanks for the comment.
@@JasonCaville I live at the bottom of New York but have a cabin in Maine. I trail ride because of money and I’m alone, my friends aren’t active in the sport at this time. Not worth buying a rig and getting into trouble alone off trail. Big time American east mountain riding in my area though, one of the top zones for snow and mountains
@@mobilewintercamp7515 ya good thinking not riding off trail alone. When the snow’s not great here, we like riding trails and going to the cabin for the day too 👍
@@JasonCaville how about this internet/You Tube. Two Polaris riders, western Canada Eastern America having a chat and trading knowledge and fun. I got to go to family dinner, Merry Christmas or whatever applies we’ll chat again 😊❤️🇺🇸❄️☃️🛷🔥⛺️🌄
We had a bit of fresh at the start and the 9R 155X325 was at 109°F. When we hit some icier parts it went up to 128°F. I try to get fresh snow on the sides every chance I get. An 850 in our group with a 165x275 didn’t put his scratchers down and hit 200°F and the sled shut down. It was about -2°C out.
@JasonCaville thanks for info. Had a 165 850 in our group today did similar. The slash with the tiny snow flap doesn't help. Might try an aux cooler for this season cause there's no snow in the forecast for sunpeaks
Ice Age have a rail cap kit for the 2024 Matryx. I may purchase it for my wife’s sled, but for now I just smoothed down the front of the hyfax: th-cam.com/users/shortsl4JxJnBjTmM?si=_WWHi-K2sJrw6mdS I was tempted to leave it, and let Polaris deal with it when something happens, but that doesn’t help if we’re 40 miles into the backcountry lol.
I saw those too. Whiskey Throttle Powersports in Alberta carries them. I noticed the hyfax was sticking out at the front when I bought the sled. I checked them on our last ride and it looks like they're getting worn down by the track clips.

Merry Christmas. Great video, my new 9r is sitting in my garage ready for B.C.
Merry Christmas! Hope you enjoy your new sled!
That was a mighty fine looking breakfast and lunch.
I keep forgetting to leave a tip!
Merry Christmas Jason. I'll Maybe try & get out for a rip down your way 1st week of January 👍
Merry Christmas! We're supposed to get more snow that week!
1997 700 sks colours 👍but I think if you’re snow checking you should be able to get any colour for the price of them now
Yeah not how that works lol

Elkford is similar to Tumbler Ridge, mine buses and sledders.
Any snow up there?
Not really
@@curtismiedzinski9040 looks like you’re about to get some!!
Any update on the 850 low rpm?
Going to try a couple things a ride it in a couple days. Stay tuned!
Love these vids brotha wish I can join you
Thanks! You ride?
Is there anything in particular you like about my videos? I’m always trying to improve 👍
@@JasonCaville yeah I ride not very often, but your videos are very good. I like how it’s not to fancy edited like others, I just like the raw uncut videos better in my opinion.
@@Slayer2o I have to cut the riding parts some otherwise they’d be 5 hours long haha. I appreciate the feedback

You’re killing me j😂
Haha I’m glad I kept that part in the vid
What type of temps do you see when your heading up the trail from your truck ?

@@mudman6227 I’d be curious to see the difference an extra set of scratchers would make. Throw a set of the reversible ones on
@@JasonCaville you mean like 4 in total ? That's an interesting idea
what can do you got on that. it sounds great
It's The Thing from Sled Shed. It sounds pretty awesome in person!
@@JasonCaville i love it sounds roudy..loud pipes saves lives
👍🏽

@@JasonCaville Oh yeah? Jodie is good to deal with, and that would be easier than ordering from the US.
