It is just the approach angle of the track is more graduall the height should be the same
They are very close....both primary clutches are just behind the shock well plastic, so by these pics they are probably within an inch of each other...???
It looks like the rear scissor angle has been located back....which lowers the rear. We do this to the older XP's with the scissor relocate brackets and it makes them work MUCH better....keeps the nose down to lessen trenching and gives the sled a more level "attitude".
Had to resize to match the other pics so it may be off a bit. Wasn't sure where to line them up so I went with the lower a-arm ball joint. Maybe there is a better location to line up the pro with the Doo's.
How about adding the cat? Just for fun.
Appreciate the work ! great way to see the differences in the sleds.

If I have time when I get home tonight I'll try adding a Pro Climb to the pic.

Where do you get 50 lbs? 08 was 430 lbs advertised and 13 is 459 lbs. Same track. I never saw a Poo advertised at 158 hp. Where so you get your info?
I think BRP might owe you a commission.... Certainly changing my mind.

Where are you getting your info?
13 Poo 155" is advertised at 417.
13 Doo 154" is advertised at 464.
That is 47 pounds. I'll agree with you on the HP though. I think the difference is more than 5 HP.
Thats not an issue for Pro riders.

My mistake, I thought you were comparing xp to xp over the last few years.
We are lucky to have the great machines of today. Personally I think Poo will find some weak spots that they will have to bulk up, adding a few lbs. (rear bumper for example ) Doo has had to do the same and a heavier fuel injection system. 420-450 lbs sleds will be the standard unless we want to pay more. Im ok with that, with the hp we are getting and the ride quality, we all should have smiles on our faces!

Yep, they're all so close and so advanced now a days. A good rider will put all 3 sleds into places we have no business being. These comparison pics make me excited to try the new Doo though! Really liking the looks of the rear skid.
For the record it wasn't me who was posting earlier though about the weight difference. I just posted a response on behalf of that guy. lol.
And completely off topic - your name is familiar though. It was you and I who bought those Doo short blocks off that guy wasn't it? The "box of rocks." Lmao... glad that all worked out though. That seller had me worried for a bit.
No way is the Poo 5hp less than either the Cat or the e-tech, try closer to 20hp. I have seen the dyno sheets too...

I've seen it on more than one occasion. And I've yet to see a stock etec out climb me on my pro. On a straight up climb the poo and the doo run right side by side. But I could care less about straight up climbing. The Polaris flat out works in the trees, nobody can argue that. And I agree that the etec is a good motor but is it worth riding the xp chassis? IMO no. But maybe the xm is better ill ride one and give it an honest chance. And for those of you that think the pro motor is unreliable I've got almost 3000 miles on 2 of them and they've been awesome

I don't really get the pinecone jokes.. cant remember exact weights, but didn't they start when the XP came out in 08 at 430ish lbs and they were built out of recycled beer cans?? Now a 417 lb ish sled is built tougher than a 460 lb ish sled?
