I rode with a 900 Ace in front of me for 2 days last week and it hit 152 km. on the lake. It was quite impressive for what I was told is a 95 hp. sled.

Your right newer 900 ace is 95 ,was 90 when first came out .I have 1200 motor ,love the smooth 130 hp .Good enough for how i drive now

The S4 I drove, the guy said he could only get it to 121km/hr. I maxed it out at 131 through a field lol. 
Gave him a new target to beat on his screen! 
It took a while to get there too

I know a guy who has an Indy 137" with the S4 and he rides with a guy who has a 900ace Skidoo. The Indy is louder, slower and burns 30%+ more fuel than the 900ace. He isn't exactly happy about it.

 

I've heard its heavy too.

We need a Yamidoo. My wife had an old Apex and I had a Yamicat zr7000. I was happy with the power of both and they sounded like muscle. 

I enjoy the creature comforts of new tech, but an old tripple/tripple still puts the biggest grin on my face.

That Mach isn't light either. Doo seems to be phasing out the etecs too in allot of packages. Wish I could get one in gt still. Skidoo is slowly becoming next Yamaha 😆

Ahh, same as last year. Not sure why everyone is so surprised with today's pricing. Its everywhere. To our benefit, last winter created a surplus of new non currents at huge discounts. Although it would be nice to buy a '26 Assault Boost what's wrong with a '24 SB XC 850 for half the price (yes, $14k) Its exactly the same as the assault except for the 7s (optional) and the shock pkg? Silver lining fellas!

your right i didn't communicate that clearly

No worries! The XCR already has the best rear skid in the biz and they found a way to make it better w/o the need for an active suspension. The long tail torsion spring will be a mod i'm performing this summer which means my '23 will become a '26 850 unicorn..😆

Too late haha. My buddy already did this 3 weeks ago with a kit from Munson Racing and a ProCC linkage kit from Hygear

My Mach is lighter than a Indy XC S4. Hell, even a Sidewinder with EPS is lighter. That S4 is a big girl with no power.

Ya, the Doo is pretty well balanced and to me doesn’t feel overly heavy. 
add a power adder and it feels even more lighter.

Exactly, that’s what I forgot to mention. The S4 is the heaviest.

Good to know.  I was thinking of ordering a new renie enduro with  etec 600r engine. I really miss power and lightness from etec and don't have to worry about oil changes. Priced one out it was just below 20 k plus frieght and pdi which put it at about 20500 ish dollars. Wonder if dealer will negotiate abit ?  Would love to try 130 hp four stroke but worried it's not as much power as etec and don't really want weight again. That etec grand touring I had before. It railed compared to 4 strokes 900 I have now.

When I had etec and 900 in grand touring. It was so nice to get on etec for a few hours. The handling change was noticeable and riding thru powder etec was less work. Can't get a new etec in gt no more, which is disappointing. Both engines seem to be very reliable. I have seen etecs with close to 20k on them too.

Pretty scary to only get maybe 6k on trade on 20k sled. Ekkeee after 4 seasons 

That’s why we buy 4 strokes and run em for a long time. Costs too much to upgrade all the time.
