Sold my 17, and we all know it needed some help with clutching. My question is did they figure it out yet, or do I need to order up a clutch ch kit for the 2020 Expert ?

From what I've read and people I've talked to it sounds like they have it dialed in. This isn't to say that aftermarket might still be better but much improved over the 17

Well I ride with 2 guys that ride hard and don't stop to cool down very often. Both had 17 165 850's. No more then 300 km on a belt for them. Both had new 19 850's last year, 165 and 175. Guy on the 165 had 800km on a belt and changed it just because. Guy on the 175 has 1100 km on his belt but said it gets rpm drop now, but wants to see how long it will last. They both are happy with the belt life now.

She fixed. 17 sucked for MOST, there were a couple of good ones, 18 was better but not great, 19 was as good as 16 XM. I think I will talk to Joey this year though, I think Doo leaves a lot of performance on the table with the clutching. Joey's kits on my 16 sleds were impressive.

His web page doesn’t have much info for the 850s. Does he have much going on with them?
