Gather round boys and girls I have a Christmas story to tell. Years ago Manufactures used to and still do put big block high HP performance  motors in chassis no matter the vehicle  that while drive straight and true leave something to be desired when going around corners.Alas most MFG continue to this day to promote top HP and top mph while relegating handling to the dustbin and why not speed sells .No Cats or Poo were mistreated  ,bused or harmed in any way in the making of this public service

There's no way I would spend 3K on shocks.  This coming summer, mine come off and go to Drayton for a re-valve since they will need an oil change anyway.  After that I can re-build them myself once the progressive valve secret is in there, and I will map out the shim change.  I don't bottom my sled because Old Farts like me are too stiff to drive like you, and no shocks will fix that.

So what is fuel range like on an 850? Any ball park numbers? 

This is my second year with the 850. Last year I would average between 200-275km per tank, obviously depending on the trail of the day.

 

Mostly rail bed with a few detours doing spirited riding i could easily get 250km+. Never pushed it right to E either.

I'm coming off an S-chassis 670 onto a MXz 800 2015 XS chassis.  bypassed 4 generations of Doo's.  The 670 will corner better than my MXz any day of the week, but my back likes the XS sled WAAyyyyy better.

I did 220km last year on break-in between 2 rides.  Did 160 km on 23L of fuel after gassing up last night (now off break-in).  Calculated to 35 liters, it should do 243 km leaving a gallon left in the tank.  Bossman says the 850 is better yet (Rene X 2017).  I can sure live with that .....

I would agree. Many older sleds will corner better than the new equipment. The old zr440/570's would hardly even lift a ski while cornering, no matter how hard it bit in. For corners, lower is faster. But I still prefer the ride of the newer stuff.
