As soon as you add the fancy optional colours, series 9 track and 7S display the price ballons to near the Boost price too. The Boost only comes with the 7S display.

The turbo r is quick revving, as for the weight, I will take the durability of light weight.

most 70s sleds had extrovert drivers and they disappeared only to return again as well. want to go back?
You think it revs faster than the Doo NA 850? There is no way. It at least could at best be equal if it was only pulling equal clutch weight, before the boost was built.

I have not ridden the G5 na engine, I heard it’s better than the G4, as far as the G4 turbo to G5. The G5 is 100% better in response than the G4.

Doo has done a great job of quickly getting the power and speed to the track with the g5 turbo. Now if Poo could do the same...

Even g4's with the "g5" tune don't compare to the response a new g5
sounds like the 9R has potential to be a great sled but judging from the posts and/or lack of around the various forums, it’s not quite the paradigm change the marketing would have you believe. I’d definitely consider owning one but not until I can ride a Polaris product w/o worrying about being towed out or a stop ride.
agreed. I’m a mediocre sledder on my best day and even I noticed the improvement from the G5’s new track and skid redesign in terms of getting on top of the snow quicker and with less chance of getting stuck. a noticeable and welcome improvement.

No they do not.
I Spent a day tuning both sleds, same day, and no matter what I did to the G4 to make the bottom end better, the g5 was still more responsive even with the exact same clutching.

Yes, I am spoiled but have a 2023 Polaris 9r Slash 165-2.75" and a 2022 Ski Doo Summit Turbo Expert 165-3.0". Both are great sleds and serve me very well. For the DEEP DAYS the turbo shines, but for exploring and tree ridding the 9r is easier to ride as it requires less effort. The weight difference between the two sleds is very noticeable.

Wait till you get a G5. The G4 chassis feels like a tank when I get on one now.

The 9r was series 8 and small guage all black. My turbo r is an expert small guage.
The 9r is significantly lighter and significantly less durable than 850 na or turbo poo or doo.. maybe poo should try competing in the durability area.
The 9R is not signifigantly lighter than a Polaris NA 850 but is compared to any Doo. They are also very durable other than the clutch and A-arms are a bit weak, Not unlike the Doo rails. Braces are required for both.
Fuel pumps, tracks, spark plugs, side panels like to fall off. A one time purchase for rail braces is much less expensive than any of those.

Doo rails are weak? That's the only thing you could think of? Doo rails are strongest on the deep snow segment and can take a lot beating.
I don’t know how they compare to poo rails but I’ve bent two 165’s in a row and ordered braces for my 54 this year.
You must be kidding? I have seen them bend from the most innocent bump. Just look at the height of the rail, only 1/2 the height of the Polaris.
Yup, the '23 Hillclimb racers already have 190hp pump gas tunesFirst was 165hp
Then 180hp
....Summits coming from factory with 195hp and warranty in Feb, for MY2025. You'll see.
