I had the chance to ride the 900 this past weekend. We had a stock '13, a
'12 900, a '13 900 and (2) '13 turbos. I rode the 900 last year a couple times and I can tell you Carls Cycle has done some work since then. I have NEVER rode a sled with better throttle repsonse. The fueling and clutching is 100% spot on. It hit so hard on the bottom I thought I would break something(no pun intended); the power is instantaneous!! Bottom end and mid range power is better than any other sled I have rode and the top end is only beat by the turbos after 6-7lbs. I compare the bottom end response and pull of the 900 to my previous 1140 twin Carls Cycle/Crankshop motor. I honestly think, without a doubt, that if boondocking and tree riding is your poison, you will not find a better set-up. In comparing the 900 to the other sleds...well, compared to the stocker there is no comparison. Compared to the turbo, the 900 has better throttle response and pulls better on the bottom, mid range pull is comparable to the new 2863 Tial with intercooler(which runs amazing by the way) and of course the turbo is faster on top, but only at or above 6-7lbs of boost. I cant say enough good things about the new Carls 900.
