i think this sled is best one polaris has ever built, the sled seems faster then any other 600 polaris i have ridden, you enter any corner at almost any speed it turns. i have almost 1000 miles on sled and no issues other than parking brake that needed to be adjusted easy fix but overall great sled
I know a guy with a brand new 2019 850 rmk pro and if he goes to pin t to bring the front end up she just boggs out before it moves and wont do it. In my opinion it will be a better engine after a few more years of work with it.
I ride a 2016 switchback 600 and get no lower than 12.4mpg and when it's on the warmer side out (25°F and above) I get 14 mpg. We ride 90% groomed trails probably at a avg of 40mph. I wish it got better, like 16, but it's not a ski-doo so its wishful thinking. Other than that I love the sled.
Just read the 2019...its much of the same except new gauges, which I'm not really sure are better than the old gauges. I'd much rather have a analog tach/speedo vs digital readout. I know where a needle is sitting...I need to waste time "reading" a digital And this is coming from someone with digital on their current sleds
@@oldslow3694 That's a very old school view Mr. Austin Becker, and I'm there with you. I think the bigger accomplishment is to make a 500 or 600cc that's light, quick, goes plenty fast, 80mph or so and gets decent mileage if you drive reasonable. Nothing wrong with not wanting to drop 100 bucks a weekend on high test fuel. I like those sleds, the El Tigre, the Indy Adventure with the 600. The new Arctic Cat blast with a single cylinder 400cc liquid cooled. A crazy thing to try, I hope they make something of it, other than a million rental sleds. I love me some one banger motorbikes, Yamaha SRX I believe was a 600 or 650 single. Husqvarna is making 710's and something else in single cylinder cycles too. Cheap. Torquey. Insurance isn't murder.
@@heatmoon my 850 & 600 are very reliable 1000 plus miles never changed plugs, my 550 shift same way. yes i also would like to see smaller motors but too many factors why we don't see them like in 80 "s & 90's but under ideal conditions my 850 got 16 mpg , my 600 got less. but these sleds are some much better then the older ones
@@edwardabrahamiii3742 i know that sir we discussed this subject earlier this fall but i know you do not like it that i am loyal to one brand but polaris sleds have worked for me. in 1995 i still had a 89 polaris indy 500 with 15,000 miles on it before motor went south. it was the neatest thing watching clutch move up & down with engine running.
@@edwardabrahamiii3742 well i beg to differ, i have 012 with 10,000 miles on it. motor runs great but maybe because i take care of it plus maybe lucky. in your earlier comments you stated you own ski doo now why change if you are happy. that's why i will not change i am very happy with polaris products
Sean Nelson, no they didn’t but maybe it’s time they did... You’re probably correct, I’m sure the insurance companies wouldn’t appreciate it very much. Haha I just want to see the Indy 650 graphics rolling down the trail again haha.
Wow riding a yellow sled must really make you insecure. I remember similar paranoia when the pro s came out. We all know team yellow is completely original. They invented precision skis. Then they were so nice they just decided to give Polaris the ok for perc for no reason whatsoever 🤔

Owned several 600xp indys, great sleds. This one appears to be another great unit.
I like the comment in the video about how they would have it in there garage. You don’t hear that very often outa these guys
Congratulations on 100k

i have a 17 rush with that same parking brake i just broke it this weekend trying to get it to release other than that i love it, its a rush xcr 600
How you guys like the power of the 600? Top speed? Any clutch work needed?
@@paulmiodowski stock sled runs great no clutch kit or can needed
Can't beat them 600s ,,,light fun crisp n fast ...and they don't blow up like them 850s..

Great video
How does the 129 compare to the 137 switchback I own now. Looking at buying one but like my switchback.

Man my old 1999 xc600 dlx gets like 9-10 mpg, I get it with today's gas prices it could be better, but your not going what I go through
Like a video you made i believe last year comparing the 800 class motors snowtrack you should do a 600 class shootout
We actually have a 600-Class Shootout coming out in a couple weeks!
@@snowtrax heck yea! I'll be looking forward to watching that👍
@@snowtrax Do you have the new 600 PRO RMK in it? It would be great to have a comparing against new 600 and 800/850 mountainsleds to!
@@snowtrax So just in time to decide to buy a late season leftover or hold out for a 2020....
@@snowtrax I am stoked for that!!
Can’t wait for the 2020 Ski-Doo reviews

Totally agree with you Sean, but I guess Iam gonna end up with it for next season.
Can you get analog gauges on it?
Like you really need an 800 or an 850 for that matter....Stick to reliability :)
you really need 800 or 850, the 850 is one awesome sled . i have driven 850 xc 129 great sled also but so is 550 indy

Only 120 track seems insane
Why? I have a new rush. I love the short track. Trail riding is all I do.
Maybe it’s time to rebirth the Indy 650...
they made a 650 2 banger?
Sorry but 600 cc class is staying right at 600. Insurance companies say so

Good work copying r-motion Polaris.
How exactly did polaris copy r-motion?
Matthew Fuller just like all the unbiased reviews stated, the secret to r-motion is the long front arm on the skid which Polaris copied.
don't matter to me if polaris copied rear skid, it works and my money goes to an american company and american workers
