Finally someone reviewing this! Skidoo hit a home run with this so long as they keep it at that same price point over the next few years and don’t inflate it!
Hope you enjoyed the video, it’s a very nice budget friendly sled. Hopefully the price stays where it is for the years to come! The camera I’m using is a go pro 8 and the mic is just a cheap one off Amazon.
I just rented this up in Munising. I let my son ride my F8 Sno Pro and I rode this for the day. Although it was a cold sled to ride I have to say that I enjoyed it. I found the handling to be acceptable and the power adequate
@repetitivemotion This seems like a great value sled. Power is the only downfall compared to most modern 600 2 strokes, but it has plenty of power for trail riding.
so nice too see a review on a sled people can actually afford!! who the hell has 20 to 25 grand for a sled.. i bought the 2021 expedition sport and anyone would be happy with! 10500 starting price! which is affordable to alot of people..
I live in the Arctic of Canada in nunavut. I'm not sure if my autocorrect got it right or not. But the Renegades are very popular machines up here because they handle the pack ice and stuff really well.
@@wallacenaaz5132 actually pretty good. They buy a lot of them here for that exact reason. I think we have more problems with ripped tracks and bottoms with the undercarriages but I think that's just because our sea ice here is so rough. But otherwise they usually start right up even when we had minus 50s here the other day. We went out and it fired right up. They seem to swear by them here.
@@blindmango69 wow awesome, i was thinking otherwise because its an efi and thought that would cause issues in the cold. As well as having no pull start. I thought maybe the 600 carb is a better option but hey man when people prove a machine and they say its good and continue to use it, it must be good.
@@wallacenaaz5132 honestly at least here. Once you get to minus 60 most people don't go out anyways. And for whatever reason we usually hang around -30s to -40s. And they almost always start. I think some of them have heating blocks that people have put on up here that help. I know one of my neighbors also throws his heat gun down the intake if things get a little too
Nice video, I'm upgrading to this from an 02 mxz 600 , really looking forward to the new sled, your video definitely helped solidify my decision on spring ordering one this year as I need an upgrade
Me personally I like the 600 ACE better. I have the same model just different engine but my controls are A LOT different. It’s much more comfortable, you can control how warm the handlebars will get, and improved electric start.
I have both the 600 Ace and 600 EFI. The 2stroke is definitely snappier and faster as it has 85hp vs 60hp. The Ace will click along at 50mph all day. The handling is similar. The Ace motor will last forever.
you got it barely cracked and cruises at 50. crack it a little more (less than 1/2) and you'd be cruising at 70. My guess is if you "cracked" the throttle just past the 3/4 mark you could probably cruise across a very long lake at 80. My co-workers have 550 fans (20' & 21') THEY top out at 70 max. with i think 50 hp? I guess my point is maybe you're just not a fan because I think that would go 90 if you had a 1 mile road to play on.
I scored a 2022. Ski doo renegade 600 efi. I just finished the break in period. I mostly have done river riding and ice fishing. 85 hp is plenty , i have only got the machine upto 125 km / 77mph . and i didn't have it wide open for long. With good conditions the 600 could do 100mph . it was fun riding the bumpy lake and hitting the throttle at the drifts would launch you
@@normankennedy7458 My first sled so I didn't feel comfortable trying many more times to break 88, lol. Probably gonna sell it and get the Renegade Sport for next year though, longer track and I'm a bigger guy.
@@rockspowersports Yeah, to me it's a real safety issue. Rounding a blind turn at night is no time to be taking your brake hand off the bars to dim your lights for an oncoming sled. I shake my head when I think of how little money are they saving by eliminating 4 feet of wire per sled. I'm fine with the heater switches being on the console, that's where they always used to be.
They removed all the sound reading from insides of panels and the shell around the exhaust with its a way to cheapen them up. I figured there would be more cock pit nose. Also if using etec oil the valves almost never need to be cleaned. Only time I clean them anymore is if I have them apart for another maintenance job mostly on older etec engine that have below design. It’s rare to get them to gum up.
It was quite a bit louder than other ski doo sleds I’ve ran. And I agree the synthetic oil helps keep the valves clean. I still usually clean any of mine after about 1500 miles of use and they usually have some build up on them by then.
I placed an order for two of these. Hope I'm not disappointed but based on your review I am optimistic. This is my newest sled purchase. I was riding a 1995 Summit (bought it last year and it was brand new, still on it's crate) and the suspension really killed my back. Hope this is better.
@luke Snyder. Thanks for the feedback. If suspension is what your after you will not be disappointed in these sleds. If I was to do anything I would replace the seat for a larger one but that is just my preference... it will be way better riding than the old 95 summit.. that’s crazy that you bought it last year still in the crate? Maybe I misread it?
Thanks for the reply. I did order two up seats for them as I like larger seats. I also ordered the mid windshield, glove box extension with cell phone heater. You did read that right, 1995 brand new last year. Also got a new 1996 Formula 500 at the same time. Guy bought them and never used them.
Nice! I think you will be very happy with them then. And man I think I would hold on to the other 2 sleds then, you don’t find them like that anymore..
@@rockspowersports Picked both of the 2022 Renegade Sports up yesterday. They were supposed to deliver in August and just arrived 2 weeks ago missing gauges but they showed up a week later. Now it needs to snow here! Thanks again for the honest review. It's what led me to purchase them.
Thanks for the review on this sled. Your video cut off at the end when you were going to talk about fuel economy? Not sure what else you planned on covering?
Oh sorry about that. As far as fuel economy went I racked up just over 100 miles on the trip and averaged 16.7 mpg. Which I thought was impressive, as I was heavy into the throttle a lot on the trip. The sled overall was a solid machine and I think it is one of the best budget friendly sleds out there for 2021.
I have 2021 with just over 4000 miles it's like the old sleds the colder the faster it goes 95 top on a 5 degree day 82 on a 30 degree day I ride with 4 guys on cat 800 and they can't lose me on the trails and I spent $7000 less
I’m thinking about getting 2 of these to replace my F8 Sno Pro and Jag Z1. This doesn’t have the power or shocks but the price of new sleds is getting out of hand
Nice review and look at this sled. Judging by performance and I’m just getting back into snowmobiling since about 9 years ago. This should be a good sled for me. The price is right, I’m trying to decide between the renegade or mxz sport as I do mostly trails but don’t want to get stuck in a foot of snow by accident haha.
This would be a great see to get back into riding. If you do any off trail riding I would recommend getting the renegade as the longer track helps with flotation yet still feels light on the trails.
@@rockspowersports yes it does seem the renegade rides nicely and that longer track will be helpful crossing the odd fields. I haven’t ridden a etec so I’m sure this EFI will feel good coming off my last machine. I like that colour scheme a bit better then the grey silver of the mxz. And anywhere 60mph is plenty fast for me on the trails haha.
@@rockspowersports it’s perfect then! I’m not looking to hurt myself haha. Thanks for the videos enjoy your videos 👍👋🇨🇦. Someday I’ll get an etec from this sled. I’m quite sure I’ll snow check this renegade sport 2022 for next winter. Went to buy this or a mxz sport this winter and couldn’t get one. Not many available and the ones I seen I wasn’t quick enough so I’ll just snow check it so I garauntee have one when the snow flies
@@longboardguy Sleds were selling crazy fast this year... You should get a 3 year warranty if you snow check also! Enjoy which ever sled you decide on!
Finally a review on one of these. Want one but not sure. I heard the etec is better then the efi but they're similar. Looking into getting one but I'm.not sure if its worth it or to pay more for a slightly bigger sled. Don't love the more basic things like the start and lights not on the handlebars and less hp but the cost is the main selling point.
It’s a great sled for the price. If you have the extra cash to spend on an etec then I’d say go that way but if you don’t mind the basic features you’ll save a whole lot of money with this sled. It’s always a hard choice when your looking at buying a new sled... good luck with your purchase!
@@rockspowersports yeah I'm starting to really see that the efi is pretty decent. I'm either contemplating a backcountry or renegade sport or renegade adrenaline but well see how it goes $$$ wise. Thanks for the advice !
Thanks for the review. Can you put the LinQ seat? My wife’s father bought a brand new touring 600 full equipped. Fuel economy is great and plenty of power but too much confort for me. I don’t have his budget, running a 2000 600 touring.
Hey great video! I'm interested in picking one of these up myself. Do you think the engine noise would be an issue? Currently have a 600 sdi and looking to upgrade to a more modern sled! Thanks.
It is louder than your current sdi however it doesn’t bother me to much and I don’t think your be bothered by it. For the price of these they are a great way to get into a new gen ski doo chassis.
@@markbutler6090 I mean it’s a 85hp motor compared to your 120ish so it is lacking when your comparing both. However 85hp is plenty for trail riding. The machine actually didn’t seem to smoke that much when I rode it.
A lot of people use the ski doo tundras for that kind of use. The tundras have a longer track and narrower font end for better off trail capability. However the renegade would be more stable due to the wider front end.
Great Review. I'm over in NEK by Pitt too. Spring ordered a BC Sport for fun. It was a blast with 1.6 Cobra, CMotion and Ds2 skis. All your points on Renegade spot on. Its loud, seat is weird (i changed mine) and the light switch hand warmer thing! Can tell you how many times I tried to push start button on handlebar! lol. I have a 900 Ace n/a 129 with 12k.
@snogirl 802 glad you like the review! It takes some getting use to after coming off another ski-doo but seems like a great machine for the money! My first upgrade would be a better seat like you have done..
Great review. I'm considering one of these as a second sled for our family. I have a 600r that I ride. Three things that I don't like . The seat is way too small. The windshield is too small and the bog your talking about. So if I was to spend more money to upgrade the seat and shield , is it worth it or bump up to the TNT ? IDK. I might consider a used etec sled. It's a hard decision. Thanks for the ride.
For a brand new sled with a warranty I think it’s a good buy. The seat is very small and soft however after the ride I took I really didn’t mind it that much. The windshield has no protection at all that’s the first thing I would upgrade... the bog is due to the lack of power Valves and that’s something your probably not going to fix. If your not to concerned with power my choice would be get this sled.
If there are any local places around you that rent them. It would be a good idea to go try one out and get a feel for it. Everybody has a different preference.
great review but you cant compare it to any of skidoos higher priced models..no its not a 125hp etech!!! the 600 etech here in canada is at least 4000 dollars more.. not a fair comparison.this sleds power reminds me of my first ever brand new skidoo which was a 1993 formula plus 580 and it made 85 to 90 hp.. very good sled non the less!! you gotta remember trail speed is maximum 30 mph!!
you mention boggy several times in the video. my expedition does not bog at all!! i get 16mpg canadian so approx 150 miles per tank !! or 17.7l per 100 kms
@@michaelgmcauliffe That's the one to get, a 'jack of all trades' sled. The Tundra front ends are not great for anyone doing any amount of trail riding.
Finally someone reviewing this! Skidoo hit a home run with this so long as they keep it at that same price point over the next few years and don’t inflate it!

Also, I love the sound of the engine.
I still haven’t tried a 600 ace I’ve tried the 900 ace and really like that engine.
How's the 600 ace handle off trail? Can it cruise at 50mph? What's top speed? I'm looking at picking up a ACE or EFI and I'm split.

Seat way too soft, head light switch on council BAD. NO RECOIL BAD. Ride is nice, I like it
ACE 900 is 95 HP. ACE HEAVY, EFI LIGHT.
How much smoother if a ride down the groomed trails does this do than say a 2005 F7?
Honestly I can’t say for sure as I haven’t drove a F7 before but I’m sure it would be quite a bit better ride.
600 efi or 600 ace , which motor is best in this sled?
@MJ3500CART I honestly don’t have any experience with the 600 ace.. however this 600efi will have quite a bit more power.
HK PowerSports, Laconia?

fuel economy with efi similar to 600 etec and 900 ace?
Fuel economy on the efi is not bad at all but the 600 etec is better on fuel for sure.

Did the sled dart much? Seems like it was early on in the video but maybe the trail was icy. Thanks for the video!
I think it was the trail conditions, the sled actually handled pretty well.
Needed more info at the end !
How much power difference between this one and 600 carb when your riding
Unfortunately I cannot answer that as I haven’t tried one of the 600 carb sleds
i had an 08 rev xp tnt 600 carb and fuel economy is about the same as my 2021 expedition sport approx 16 mpg canadian!
About 15% less then then the 600 carb. So alot less power, but better on fuel.
Where are you riding here? Looks like some nice conditions
This was northern NH, most of the trails were good. I was just out riding yesterday there too and the trails are still holding up pretty well.
Great review. I'm considering one of these as a second sled for our family. I have a 600r that I ride. Three things that I don't like . The seat is way too small. The windshield is too small and the bog your talking about. So if I was to spend more money to upgrade the seat and shield , is it worth it or bump up to the TNT ? IDK.

For a brand new sled with a warranty I think it’s a good buy. The seat is very small and soft however after the ride I took I really didn’t mind it that much.

great review but you cant compare it to any of skidoos higher priced models..no its not a 125hp etech!!! the 600 etech here in canada is at least 4000 dollars more.. not a fair comparison.this sleds power reminds me of my first ever brand new skidoo which was a 1993 formula plus 580 and it made 85 to 90 hp.. very good sled non the less!! you gotta remember trail speed is maximum 30 mph!!
Yes they are great bargain price sleds I know you cannot compare to the higher priced etecs
Get your recall papers yet?
I did not purchase this sled I was just testing it out.
you mention boggy several times in the video. my expedition does not bog at all!! i get 16mpg canadian so approx 150 miles per tank !! or 17.7l per 100 kms
Could have been an issue with the sled, or it could of been that I’m use to more of a crisp low end power like the etec has.
Does it have reverse
Yes it has the electronic reverse
Front shocks are on upside down!
They are on correctly... you did make me look at the video again though. The preload adjustment is supposed to be on the bottom.
It’s better to buy the tundra sport because it cost the same as the mxz but the same 137 inch long track
How are the front suspension on the tundras?
the tundra comes with a 154 track!! i bought the expedition sport and rear suspension is the same with articulaltion!
@@michaelgmcauliffe That's the one to get, a 'jack of all trades' sled. The Tundra front ends are not great for anyone doing any amount of trail riding.
I ride polaris but if I was riding ski doo it would be this model
