    I've been waiting for this review. I love mine 250 miles on it, and i can't wait to put on more. Thank you, guys, for your reviews

    Glad you guys feel the same way about the sled! Adding the 10.25 gauge was all i needed because everything else is perfect. This sled seriously puts smiles per gallon on my face and not worry about price😅. Awesome video and thanks guys!

    I have 6000 miles on my 22 with almost no miles this season and its been a blast. Time to upgrade this next year

    My son has a new 24 Rave and seems to be very happy with it but like you, only putting on 370 miles on it didn't give him a true test yet. I was surprised how well it handled and didn't find it tippy like some of the previous Lynx sleds we heard about. It's a very smooth powerful machine that rides very well for not having smart shocks.

    I had no idea Lynx had finally expanded over on to the other side of the pond, I've been out of the snowmobile hobby for a few years now but still miss the thrill.
    Glad to hear guys like em! :D

    I have the 23 Lynx Rave'...and I love that machine more than anything I've ever ridden. Just the fun factor alone on this sled is awesome let alone that it rides like a motorcycle, goes over large woops with no problem, and if you want to wheelie...lean back. Get this sled if you're at all interested in this type of riding.

    Nice review. You are absolutely correct. You have to take into consideration the Lynx comes with all premium components that justify it’s price. My sled choice came down to 2 sleds for 2024- the Lynx or the new Catalyst. I went with the Catalyst. I know you also liked the Catalyst. I have no regrets but man, I really like the Lynx.

      Some of us had a chance to ride the XTERRAIN 850 Turbo R and we have one in our press fleet for next season, but did not get a chance to ride one with the 4-stroke turbo in it.

      @karituovinen3387 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I went from Rave to Xterrain 900R. They are 2 completely different sleds despite the similarities. The 900 R is more allround, you don't drive as hard in the moguls with the 900 as with the Rave. Having said that, the 900 R isn't exactly bad. It is the best all-round sled I have ridden. Compared to other 4 strokers such as Sidewinde or Rengade, you don't feel that it goes so hard on the skis and pps 3 means that you are constantly lifting the skis without any effort. The engine in the 900 R is wonderful! Feels sophisticated, strong fast consumes little fuel. A dream sled for longer trips. Disadvantages standard are price halogen lights and weight I would say

    Another great review video AJ.
    Just curious if it would be possible to put r Motion X rear suspension into the Lynx 3500 ? I would much like to have the skis more planted to the ground than be wheeling the front end. I like the style of the Lynx over the Skidoo's. Also curious if the KYB 46mm shocks would work in the
    r Motion X rear suspension ?
    Any information from anybody in here would be cool. Just imaging a really cool sled for the future. Thanks.

    I’ve met quite a few people who prefer the 23 Lynx Rave over the 24, seems lynx is taking some of the things that made the lynx special and dumbing them down. Specifically because people who ride at 20 mph complained of a stiff ride.

  • @jeremybrunes38
    @jeremybrunes38 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Are they worth the money compared to the bigger manufacturers ? Do they have all the upgrades readily available like the big manufacturer offers? That is where the market is swayed

    • @snowtrax
      @snowtrax  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They are awesome sleds. I think if you talked to other guys that have purchased one and put some miles on it already, they'd agree.

  • @TyfoiD75
    @TyfoiD75 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    and imho, the xterrain re is even better. Tbh, if the only thing you can complain, basically, are the options on the display, then Rave is a very, very nice snowmobile.

    • @robertbartholomew4473
      @robertbartholomew4473 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I looking at the XTerrain Turbo version. For longer rides and more trail condition options, that thing goes over and through everything.

      @@robertbartholomew4473 I know^^ Was thinking on turbo, but as long as its 2t, and with the elevation here.. not much use. Why I like Lynx over Ski-doo is that for me, on the models I have tested.. Riding ergonomics just suit me better and can easily do 300km+ a day.

    It's so sad they did not bring the dual caliper to the whole 2025 lineup. The Xterrain is still on the old setup despite the higher price range.

    thank you AJ for telling me what i already knew. you don't buy any sleds with your own money. You remind me of my brother. Always telling me what "he would do if it was his money." Yet never spends his money on anything. never takes the risk, or never has to risk it. kinda like you guys, he lives off the coat tail of my dad. i'm probably the harshest critic of supertrax. however, when you are paid to tell everyone everything is great, hard to take it serious. Would you be ok taking a 10k hit on a sled after two years? if so, buy a lynx.

    • @snowtrax

      I LOVE comments like this. Trash talk us and attempt to discredit our opinions all you want, but the reality is we've tested every sled back to back and you haven't. So which of our opinions carries more weight here? 😆
