Gorgeous sled. There something about the day when you pick up a new sled!! You never forget the new smell and all the tags hanging from it. You study every magazine and article leading up to the delivery day lol. Polaris knocked it out of the park with that machine.
Thats for sure and it feel like forever waiting but when you get it and it worth it!! Polaris has been stepping up these past 5 years for sure
I've lived in Canada for 11 years now and hate winter. I've got my 2stroke woods bike but season is too short. It's like -40 this weekend and spent it watching Sled vids. Looks crazy fun trail/ditch riding. Maybe I wouldn't hate it here if I had one of those things.
its the only thing that gets me through the winter!!
Let's talk about velocity shocks.tks koda
so far they are great but i want to get some trail rides with them to really feel how they are and play with them
Just bought myself a Skidoo Mxz X 850 Etec. Rode a Polaris 850 but Skidoo Etecs pull harder and are faster with a better riding suspension based on my opinion on riding both. Can’t beat R-Motion. Nice sled and happy riding!
Congrats but when it comes down to 50 50 I rode the backcountry xrs 850 and I just wasn't a fan of the feel of the suspension and the skidoo may be faster on top end but I feel the polaris pulls harder especially in the mid range but sleds are all about preference
Very cool , congrats and Happy Thankgiving
Thanks bud!! And you have a happy Thanksgiving also!!
Very narrow, should be good off trail. Cool little Easter eggs. Neat to explore. Thanks again for the shoutout - yep Snowmobile Sessions live stream 7pm Monday’s on my channel or Bobby’s... chat soon
Exactly cant wait!! And I will be tuning in when ever I can its a great idea love watching it and it will be even better once snow starts flying and we really can talk about the new sleds how they ride snow conditions good places to ride and possible group rides
Nice video man. Best sled on the market!!
Couldn't agree more!
Mine should be here any day now. Same sled but red spindles and rails. Cait wait! 🤟🤟
@@scotthasson151 i debated so hard on the red rails but i may wrap the sled not sure yet so wanted black to go with the wrap
@@KotaBearTV can't go wrong with all black! Just saw one recently with the blue spindles and rails that looks sick too
@@scotthasson151 oh nice i didnt even try the ble that actually might look good
Still waiting here in Ct. for my VR1 850 129 with 1.6 lug storm track. Can't wait I hope there's issues with shock talked to my dealer he said some are getting shipped with out.
Yes unfortunately that is what I have heard also is they are being shipped out with no shocks but supposedly there trying to get the shocks there soon after I mean season doesnt start for another month but this sucks for sure
The 7s display is awesome and I’m sure it’s an awesome sled but I just don’t like the look of the front end of the Matrxy chassis! I think the Axys is Beautiful! But I know it’s gonna be a killer sled have a blast with it!
Yeah the front end is alittle to futuristic for some people and yes the 7s is amazing!!!
@@KotaBearTV I’m just so ready for the season to start already! Picked up a still new on the lot 2020 assault back in august no miles yet! The video of me getting it is on my channel!
Thats awsome man ill take a look at it for you and that's awsome you get an 800?
@@KotaBearTV ya it’s an 800, I would have preferred an 850 but I was looking for the beat deal I could find and I couldn’t pass on the one I bought!
Yeah the 800s were good deals for sure
2 inch lug you must be off trail rider. I know 144 is tough in corners wants to go straight
I'm a 50 50 guy I like being able to do both
It's a wicked nice sled but it's way to narrow for me. I'm 6'1 300lbs I'm a big guy I'm wider then the sled 🤣
I mean I'm 5.11 320 and its fine for me lol
@@KotaBearTV for off trail yes its amazing but on trail it's nothing compared to my switchback PRO-S. The ski lift on the assaults at high speeds on the trail is scary.
I mean you get used to it but that is what I love about them
Beautiful sled and video!
Thanks man!! Ride safe!!
Hell YES! The new display is wild that they put into these machines! That is the one EASTER EGG we couldn't find....the chassis! Such a simple miss too! lol
Hahah i looked alll over to make sure I didn't miss one!! But that new gauge is a game changer for sure!!
@@KotaBearTV We had the demo...had 5 guys looking for them all. Literally, that is the one that we never found. lol. Now I have to break the news to them tomorrow. Such a plane sight thing too! Hopefully.....things work out as planned. I definitely want to get a ride in. Video or no video. Sometimes no video is the most fun, but that is always when you miss something good. lol
Hahaha your right man If it was a snake it would have bit them
@@KotaBearTV Truth!!!
I bought my 2012 pro r 800 LE from Rick, great guy to deal with!!
Yea they all are there for sure!! Won't c me go to another dealer for a sled
Nice sled. I am a big Skidoo guy and just got my new Xrs 850 with the all new hugeeee skidoo display. Thing is badass. My opinion Skidoo has the best gauge and suspension on the market hands down. I like the looks of the Polaris but had some buddies of mine that had the patriot 850 motors and they blew up... Lol. But again everyone has their likes and I wish you a great season. I am ready for a great season here in the north woods of Wisconsin.
Both sleds are great what it comes down to is preference i think the front end on the polaris is way better and the overall power is better and that sucks with the motors but this will be my 3rd the other 2 had no issues so we will have to wait and see lol but thx for the comment and taking a minute to watch the video!!
Have a 20 Rengade x 850 but will have to give a serious look at a vr1 for next yr
Get to test ride one i think you will want to make the switch
Nice dawg, I’m picking up my Indy 850 VR1 137 this week! $$$$$$$
How much money we lose when we get new sleds every year omg!!!! Madness
awsome what color did you go wiith??
Went with same color as you but red Spindles and rails and red k bumper also got the POLARIS LED hand guards and some other things lol 18 g’s roughly lol and we haven’t even got it on trailer yet haha
Did you go with POLARIS is 0% financing or did you do something else and keep them for your motor warranty
Can’t imagine10 years from now how much they will cost I do wish we had more options to choose from when snowchecking hbu?
The generational symbols under the seat are the Sno Traveler (early 60's), the TX/TXL Chassis (mid 70s), the Indy Chassis (late 80's and 90s), and the Axys/Matryx Chassis
Thanks man that is some history right there!!
Nice looking sled, my buddy and I are waiting on our snowcheck Matryx 850s 137s to come in!!
Awsome so you guys got the new vr1s?? I think this year is gonna be best year yet!!
@@KotaBearTV yes, different colors of course!! we are in southwestern PA but ride up in your area, usually stay around Redfield, my first Polaris sled, switching from Cat
I like the sound of that you won't be disappointed and yeah I heard alot of PA people come up to tug and ride becuase you guys don't really get much down there
@@KotaBearTV yes, Tug Hill gets gets a bit crazy, like Michigan and Maine better, went out west last year to Togwotee Pass, that was a eye opener!! Awesome time! Totally different style of riding!!
For sure and that's why I try to get to Maine atleast 1 tome a year but if I lived closer I'd be in Michigan for sure!
Nice sled Kotabear
Thx man!!
So sick man. Wish we lived close lol. We could do a comparison to the 144 to the new 146 matryx both 2021s
Hahaha for sure where do you like i cant remember?
@@KotaBearTV Michigan.
Oh yeah that's right!! You got the good snow lol!!
@@KotaBearTV it can be forsure
Jealous!!!
that sled looks amazing
Thanks man!!
So glad you were able to make it happen man! Hope to get together and ride this winter if you’re in my neck of the woods ever! I’ll keep ya updated on possible plans
I appreciate it man!! Cant wait for winter especially maine!!
@@KotaBearTV lemme know when you head up this way! If we can’t make the trip I want to do happen, maybe I can figure something out and ride with you for a day or two if that’d work for you.
That would be awsome
@@KotaBearTV I’ll definitely keep you in the loop. If I can make it work, I want to try and aim for February, that’s the best time for snow. Maybe March, it all depends on how much snow we get, what I can get off time wise, and some other variables.
@@2010Greendayfan there is always a ton of variables we will wait and c!
Awesome video beautiful sled and kubeckas is an awesome place!
Love it!! What did you get from kubeckas?
@@KotaBearTV in 2016 i got a polaris indy 600 nothing special but its a sweet ride!
Hey man nothing wrong with that you probally got a good deal and the 600s are bullet proof motors so as long as you have fun riding thats all that mattters
the color looks clean, the sled looks sick. can’t wait to see a boat load of content on it, hope you enjoy the hell out of that sled!
Me too cant wait to get some good content for you!!!
Sweet sled great intro I have the same sled sno checked looking forward to more content and opinions on this sled.tks
Thanks man I cant wait either where do you usually ride??
@@KotaBearTV ride in B.C on groomed trails and the deep stuff i still have a 2017 assault and a 2019 163 pro just can't get enough of the assault. Tks
Oh thats awsome I am so jealous!!! Have you rode this year yet??
Nice sled, one thing I wanted to know is if they mounted the hand guards on flexible plastic? You can see in the review of my 20 that that was an engineering flaw I thought could be easily fixed!!
I look tommrow after work and c if I can find out for u
@@KotaBearTV That would be great, keeping mine for another year. But will buy new gaurds and mounts if I keep breaking my gaurds. I think the sled you got is gonna be awesome for you. After watching your videos, it probably fits your ridding style better than the SKS did. Again you can see in my review that I suggest people go with that sled!!! Congrats.
I hear you man I broke one last year also and where do you ride I saw some nice places in your video
@@KotaBearTV Hum, replied to this an hour ago and didn't seam to post haha. Thanks for checking it out! Please feel free to subscribe as I think you would appreciate my content as I do yours! I ride mostly from home in Elliot Lake Ontario. If you only had time to watch one of the videos I would suggest the WaWa one. That is the one destination I travel to other than at home on an annual basis. Thanks for the replies!
No problem man and I think I did subscribe for you already when I get some time im gonna check out a few more keep grinding on man!!
Morphing into a G4, hope the new mapping keeps the 840 from fouling plugs, we shall see....
Well companies are always competing for sure and the last 2 850s i had only fouled 1 set of plugs so we will c im sure it will be fine
@@KotaBearTV for sure, looking forward to hear your thoughts on the Matryx
Nice ride! Bring on the snow!😎
Cant come soon enough!!
I too am addicted to the fumes. They have affected my brain to the point that i buy a new machine every year out of not knowing any better. I am waiting for a 650 vr1 137. Keep posting videos. You are a very likeable you tube producer. Keep up the good work.
Thanks man and I hear you to im on my 5th new one hopefully I can get a new one again next year!! And I can't wait to make videos with the sled!! Let me know how you like the 650 vr1 once you get to ride
Nice sled, Polaris is awesome
Agreed!
Where's do you ride?
I ride in upstate NY and make it out to Maine usually for a week
I like Upstate Ny
It is a really nice place to ride for sure!!
Wow dude congratulations. You were all into a new SKS last’s year, now an Assault? Two inch paddle! Hope to see which style your more happy with .
Had to get the new matryx with the new gauge the 2 inch track is only .25 less than the sks and the with is 1 inch wider so we will c how it is
@@KotaBearTV good luck this is my other channel. We’ve spoken more on a different one. Hope to see your success in Maine , I’ll be there this winter, pray for snow ❄️🙏
@@lordmarshall5239 Thanks man means alot ride safe bro!
What did Polaris say about the break-in. On this gorgeous badass sled
I think its the same as the last 2 years
I’m a cat guy but that’s a sharp looking sled
I’ll be seeing a lot of it cause my buddy just picked up his 850 VR1 Indy yesterday
Hope to be in Old Forge a lot this year.
Same i want to get to old forge atleast 3 or 4 times this year especially when the do the demo rides!! Well sense your a cat guy what did you get?? The riot?
@@KotaBearTV didn’t get a new one, still paying off my 18 ZR.
Ahh gotcha that is understandable for sure
True fan here nice!
You are the best
i just picked up my 850 xrs today as well
Awsome a 137?
What do you do for living to get a new sled every year 🤣 btw glad Polaris didn’t come out with sky blue again cause I reallly reeeallyyyyyy don’t wanna have to trade my Indy XC cause I kinda already regret a little not getting a assault 😂 🤦♂️ btw how big is your trailer?
Hahaha I hear you man and well I had a job at coca cola but in 2 weeks they eliminated my facility :( so no new sled next year most likely 😕 and yeah the colors weren't as good this year unfourtantely
@@KotaBearTV shitty hopefully you find something just as good. Things happen for a reason tho! I’m kinda waiting for that 4 stroke to come to MAAAAAAAYYYBEEEE Trade for. 😂 2 stroke are great but my buddy changes his oil once maybe twice a season....kinda jealous lol and it’s not like Polaris doesn’t know how to build a badass 4 stroke 🤣
Haha I hear you man its nice in that aspectic but I had an arctic cat 4 stroke and was not a fan at all so its all preference but for off trail they are to heavy you will sink every time
@@KotaBearTV but something like a 900 ace ski doo has not the pigs from yamacat 😂 never tried one.
@@KotaBearTV Sorry to hear about your job situation Buddy!!! Hope everything works out for you!! Nice sled too!!!
Why is the left button console on tilted up?
I'll have to look at it again but I'm sure I can adjust it no problem to where I want it
Polaris is way ahead on their GPS displays. We have Ride Command on a General, and it's awesome.
The small pictograph under the seat, I think would be:
Original Sno Traveler
Late 70's TX
Original Indy
New Matryx
Great walkaround!
Now that you say that I think you are right I wasn't fully sure but its cool eother way and thanks man!!
1960s, 70-80s, 90-2000s, and then 20. in order. the fact you don't know what a wedge sled looks like concerns me. if you wanna sell that sled lmk
Not all of us can be experts on old sleds and when I was editing it I realized I was way off but can't really just go back and fix it so 🤷🤷
HA FAIR enough @@KotaBearTV
Does this mean you’re going to sell your SKS 146?
sks 146 is already gone someone bought it like 2 months ago
@@KotaBearTV enjoy the new whip! I’d love to hear a comparison of your new sled to the SKS, once riding season begins.
@@GotThrottles you got it man i cant wait its gonna be a long wait this next 5 weeks in gonna feel like 5 years
So nice, that’s going to bring some great content to the channel this year. Can’t wait to see the videos and I think this type of sled will fit your riding style perfectly and be a great sled for the tug hill trails👍🏻👍🏻
For sure cant wait sled season cant come soon enough
Nice sled and all. It’s only taken them 5 years to copy the Gen 4 ..
luv the headlights .
hahah one or the other always copys something and yes the headlights are gonna be amazing for sure
Get that paper!!!!!!!!!!!
i wish it was alot
I am not a Polaris fan but I really like that sled awesome
That is what I like to hear!!
Cant wait till he calls me about my 650
nice did
you get the vr1 650?
@@KotaBearTV I went with the launch in black and white with red accents, cant wait to see it in person
The red accents are gonna pop on it for sure
Badass!! That's the one I want
love it they are sick buy one up!!
Awesome sled. Great to see you on the Snowmobile Sessions podcast. I can’t wait to hear how you like the new Assault
Thanks and yeah the snowmobile sessions is really cool ill be jumping in when I can for sure and I can't wait now for some snow to ride!! Only 5 6 weeks left!!
Hell ya brother. Interested to see how you like the new 2 inch track for this year. Very good looking sled in person I saw one last weekend, clean and nice attention to detail.
Cant wait will defiantly let you know how I like it im sure I will Love it beacuse my track last year was great and the only difference between the 2 is that .25 inch
Nice
