that was a great review thanks for everything u do for the sport
Great review Mike, you hit all the important points. Compared to G4 this G5 has way better handling, better seat, better brakes, and yes it feels similar to a 850. Also I was impressed with the 10.25 gauge, worked flawlessly with the BRP App. This is the best 4 stroke sled Ski-Doo ever built, no question in my opinion.
Thanks very much! Glad you enjoyed it and totally agree! Cheers, Mike
Great review Mike, I'm sure the studs helped, but the change to a Ripsaw II vs. the original 1ply ripsaw (aka-slipsaw) is where most of the additional traction came from. We proved this years ago, and do swaps like you did to the Rip2 right from new. If you don't care about top speed, you should try the Rip2 1.5" on your next one, wicked traction!!
Thank you Barry! While the Rip II is a great track, the difference here is 100% in the studding. My Mach Z also had a Rip II and wouldn't hook up well with the 144 studs we put into it, so that tells me that the majority of traction difference is actually a result of the studding approach. I would love to try the 1.5" rip II but that means even longer studs which would make me a little more nervous! Cheers, Mike
You’re Killing me Mike! Now I want a Kit! 😂 I absolutely love the mine the way it is. But you’ve got me sold. lol Great content this year boyz! Keep them
Coming! #legends!
I'm sorry buddy....but the kit makes the sled what it should be. Simple as that. We will get you hooked up with Chris. Cheers Mike
Well done sir. Great review!
Thank you kindly! Cheers, Mike
Nice review Mike. Hope to see an instructional video on the installation of the MCX kit and clutch adjustments in the future. We unfortunately don't have a Ledger type in our area! ;)
Thanks! You can just call Chris, as he walks many of his customers on how to do the install. He's always willing to help. Cheers, Mike
I noticed a huge difference with the front end from the G4 to the G5 and the brakes are amazing
Yes 100%! It's just that much better than the G4. Thanks for watching! Cheers, Mike
900r in a expedition extreme with the mcx 210 kit. That would be fun
Totally agree! Would be a blast and one hell of a do-it-all sled! Cheers, Mike
Hi Mike. Great review. I snow checked that same sled. Traded my Mach Z in. Did you change out the Torsion springs for the heavier ones ? I always end up doing that . Take care.
Yes. I forgot to talk about it in the video, but I swapped out for the big boy springs and it makes a huge difference. Cheers, Mike
Hey Mike - need to elaborate on the 'big boy' torsion springs & your experience.
Wanting to install them on this exact XRS sled. Hoping it doesn't impair the Smart-Shox.
LINQ stuff, gear, gas can & me - is always 275+.
This is a definite upgrade you need. Anybody 200lbs+ needs the bigger stiffer springs and it will make a huge difference in ride quality of the sled. It doesn't impair smartshox at all. Hope this helps. Cheers, Mike
Good enough, consider it done.
Hi Mike, love the video! Was curious what the gas mileage difference was with the 210 kit?? Have a 2023 with about 400 miles on it considering the 210 kit.
Thanks so much! We were basically equal for fill ups at the pump all throughout my Gaspe tour. The only time you will really notice a difference is if you are really pinned on it - that's when you will use more fuel than a stocker. Chris explained that they can actually be better on fuel because typical trail riding, you might not be into the throttle as much with all of the extra power. For the most part, I didn't notice it any harder on fuel. Hope this helps. Cheers, Mike
Thanks Mike, appreciate the response now to save a few pennies this summer to get the kit installed next fall.
Second question is the2p24fsrontnearly as good as Polaris Christopher by way would like, etc Togo back to 4 strong, headmaster y apex. Sleds
unless they change the throttle to all cable I’d have a tough time buyin one. hate the drive by wire on my 900 ace na and rode a Mach this season as well, slightly better but just can’t get used to it. otherwise awsome machine s. wonder how your Mach and this one compare in throttle feel/response ?
They are the same stock but with the MCX kit, it's as good as it will get and close to instant power when in sport mode. Works great and this is how it should be. Cheers, Mike
When you was at the Ski doo 25 release . Did they mention why the new steering and skis weren’t on the 900 R models.
Spindles not steering
Yes I believe we spoke about it in one of our videos. Apparently the new spindle design doesn't work with the wide body work. Panels will need to be revamped to accommodate the more horizontal a-arms. G5 900 is only one yr old also. Cheers, Jesse
Highest video all ways my question in first 400p klm did you have to rep.ace any bogie wheel, rear, drive or make shafts earing if not when do you recommend replacement, Christopher Ottawa
Hey Christopher. I haven't replaced a bogey wheel in 10 years on any of these sleds. They are made much better than what they used to be. Cheers, Mike
HI Mike I end up changing few every year on Polaris and the yamaha sleds, ones that have better snow eals last longer christopher
How does the mcx kit affect warranty on the sled?
Any modifications like this to an engine will always void your warranty. Cheers, Mike
But you lose your warranty with Mcxpress 210 kit?
Yup
Warranty risk. Kit is hard on chain case and clutching. Not for me.
Yes it does void your warranty but the chain case issues I had were my own fault with adjustment. The chain cases can handle more power for sure and not something I'd be concerned about. Cheers, Mike
