You mean like they did with the Mustang Mach-E? Took the highly regarded muscle car name, put the rear hatch from the Escape on it and stuck an electric sewing machine motor on it..

From Factory,  there are 3 settings.  Sport, Standard and Eco. It was also available on a few years of the 1200. Pretty sure when toggling thru the settings,  the computer changes timing, and more likely fuel etc.  Me and Mrs. Turbo Doo are never out of the Sport setting. 

Loading into the trailer eco all the way :poke2:   and when in rougher trail I switch to performance mode   the thumb can move more on the throttle and not effect the engine speed drastically

I think you mean eco (not performance) mode lets the thumb move more, with less effect on the engine speed. I often use eco mode in very twisty or rough trails.

Easy easy     not sure which garden tractor you mean     :icon_dance-cpatch:    I think they look more like a P$ssed off wood pecker       I still like the XS look   my favorite   next to the 2002 black ZX sleds   

A black Cub Cadet? LOL

I find that Sport mode seems too much for the available traction when going in & out of the sled shed (plank floor).

A fellow I ride with has a rene 900T with the stock track plus picks. He doesn't like loading or unloading the sled. I unloaded it in sport mode from another friends trailer that has a wood floor. Woops!!!         Note to self: Always use econ mode when loading/unloading Bills sled.

That's where Eco mode becomes very useful...ditto for loading to and unloading from a trailer. Otherwise, I'm always in Sport mode.

Hello Blake.   I had the 2015 900 in the xs chassis and on the dash we had Eco in green   performance in blue and sport in white lights. I liked that.  Now we have Eco   Eco off.  Sport and sport off. We lost performance but it's still there LoL. I tell the guys when I need to keep up to them I had to put in sport mode to get all 3 cylinders to run.  I think they used to believe me at first

That sounds interesting.  120 hp maybe with less weight than a 900 ace.  I could see that working really well.  Hopefully they move the new front and rear suspension into the whole lineup.  Will also be interesting to see what happens with the MSRP's.

120 hp would make it interesting
