Anyone on here own one of these? Just wondering how people are finding this new motor. Would be really interested to hear from someone who has one that was a past 900 ace owner on how the two compare.

If you are looking to see and demo one, Call Mike at Rickward's, I was just talking with him and they have one in stock.

Lol.Ā  When the trails open or when Polaris delivers all of their sleds?Ā  Both seem to be waitingĀ  for hell to freeze over.

Got my 2023 sno chek in mid december :)

Personally I would look at the Indy SP with the 650 patriot. Its got the full Matrix chassis and the smaller 2 stroke will give you similar acceleration (less top end) than the big bores.Ā

Iā€™m definitely interested in the S4. When Polaris puts a turbo on it, thatā€™s probably when Iā€™ll trade the viper. 90hp just isnā€™t enough for me, Iā€™d be happy with 130-140hp turbo 4 stroke though. šŸ˜†
My wife and I went to rickwards last year and demoed some 650s, in short, amazing sleds! Still getting the wife one when the time comes as theyā€™re super light and more than enough power. If the S4 handles anything like the 650, Iā€™m sold on it. We backed out of our SP 650 order this year from rickwards unfortunately. Kinda regretting it, but kinda glad we did because itā€™s going to be a very short season! Iā€™m a die hard Yamaha guy, but I can say confidently that that matrix chassis is very very good!

I believe snowtrax is doing a walkaround on the S4 this week or next.Ā  I'm in the same boat.Ā  Once a turbo goes on that motor, I will be really interested in it

I had the na900 for 2 sleds. The 2021 Renne with 5 more HP and pdive was way better than the 2015.Ā  Friday we find out how the 130 HP is.Ā  Ā I would imagine Polaris motors are going to be similar to BRPĀ  Ā  Turbo will be really nice so hopefully Polaris gets it soon

Did you just buy a turbo ace this season?

How do you like that setup in comparison to the na 900 ace? Is it much louder?Ā  Much worse on fuel?Ā  120 - 130 hp does seem to be a good hp. Not sure why more aren't buying that version and instead are paying for the 180 hp version.

It has a nice rumble. Not loud by any means.Ā  Throttle is more sensitive for sure. Gas is still unknownĀ

So, I know that most of you are more high performance sledders, but has no one ridden the Poo 4s yet? Hard to believe that they are that scarce. Ā

We live a pretty sheltered life in Canada. Ā  We can complain that our new $20,000 sleds are not on time Ā 
Ā 

in reality There are other global situations such as Ukraine that are really hampering production of equipment and vehicles. Ā Effects are felt globally.

Definitely needs a turbo and shock options. Iā€™m not sure about that throttle though. I personally think a cable style would be more reliable?? šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø
