Well guys, looks like the ole 700 is either going to be a secondary sled or sold to offset a new sled.

I'm going to pull the trigger on a new 2011 Pro 155 or possibly SnowCheck a 2012 Pro 155.

I love the 700, but this old body is getting tired of manhandling that heavy sled around all day. Kind of ironic......just when I get her all dialed in, I move on.

I opted for the timbersled suspension that rides like a Cadillac, it was cheaper than a new sled. Can't argue that the pro will be a big upgrade from the 700 though.

Nice! I know your 700 is starting to get up there in the miles... (mine too)

I'm demo'ing a Pro tomorrow as my sled is in the shop getting new drive-shaft bearings and they are gonna do some investigating for an odd vibration in the chassis I started feeling last ride out (I couldn't find anything wrong).

I've only ridden one for a few minutes last time I had the chance and it was an impressive sled in the deep stuff, looking forward to more seat time tomorrow. From everything I have read, I think Polaris finally struck a winner.:face-icon-small-hap Hard to ignore a stock to stock weight loss of 120 lbs:eek: Even with the basic lightweight goodies they are still 80 lbs less to throw through the trees, that's gotta account for something:eek::eek::D:beer;

without the big power and torque of the 900 my sled would have been left for dead in 08 so I dont blame you. One of mine will be a turbo and the other will be a stepping stone to my newer sled . I highly doubt I will buy new I will just mod and void the warranty anyway!
