    Caleb, You need to do a video where guys get to ride your sled briefly at the clinics and feel the Ohlins shock difference like I did and then speak to it on camera. Running a full set this year and it is because of getting to ride yours last season.

    Super informative video actually.
    That sled was sick, and you crushed riding it.
    I think the builds are neat, but many of us on a more generally basic budget and abilty level....a few less chute to 270s with an upside down hopover wheelie re-entry - if you know what i mean 😊.
    Steve Martin recently did a video about buying an economy model sled that most could afford, and i think he is on to something there.
    Itd be fun to see you rip a couple pro-Kesterke days on a stock, cheaper modeled sled between the epic sled videos your normally producing.
    And I hope you and Matt get back out there together. Those were good-vibe vids.

    Awesome video! I really enjoyed the thoughts and discussion on what worked for you. I also appreciate how you don't just buy every aftermarket part available to throw on your sleds. It makes it clear that you can't buy your way into being a good rider, it takes skill and practice.

    • @phildolecki2598
      @phildolecki2598 2 месяца назад +2

      Completely agree, there is just amazing talent with Caleb. Obviously every aftermarket parts maker wants him to attach their products but people need to get out and ride before we add every accessory made before the sled will function properly (less those damn Poo clutches, lol!). These newer sleds are amazing right out of the box, they just need the right rider to tell it what to do.

    • @CalebKesterke
      @CalebKesterke  2 месяца назад +1

      Doing mods can be a lot of fun but a bone stock sled is extremely capable. More of just an option to mix it up and make your sled more specific for your needs

    You keep saying it's the 146 and 155 boost sleds that are absolutely out of control, but I think it's less the sled and more the driver 😂

      @boddysurfer they might be the same age but the cboys act 10 years younger. Caleb's content is geared more towards and older audience wanting to learn. Cboys makes content for kids. That is my point. I see no benefit for someone like Caleb to collab with them.

      Hell yeah best of both worlds! Selling your old sled and buying a new one this season. Struggling to decide boost or 9r. I feel the 9r might make me a better rider, worried ill start depending on track speed and not progress at technical riding.

      @@CalebKesterke part of it is shipping costs for the powder, but they inflate and overstate it. The other part is just because they can; there's only so many powdercoaters in the area and they are ALL slammed, even at these prices.
      Good to know about tuning (I did SLP clutches on both my '21 Khaos 850 and '24 Khaos 9r though). I'm considering a turbo kit for my '21 Khaos but not sure yet. Rumors are pretty strong about Polaris snow check options this spring...and there's only a handful of times each year we ride above 5000' and wish I had a turbo sled.
