2022 Mach Z gets traded for a Lynx!

[@cledussnow9507]

I gotta hand it to ya. Not too many people are willing to admit that the new Mach isn't what people thought it was gunna be. Don't know where the rumor started, but seems like it was intended to be something to destroy the ThunderCat, didn't happen. Props to you sir for keeping it real!!!

[@jigglefootracing3398]

The mach z needs the 1200 with a turbo. The mach z is perfect for the people who love them lol

[@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754]

Love my backcountry, 650 flawless miles. Good review of the Mach! 22 year old machines still have the bar set high for lake performance!

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I didn't ride it much but that's what I thought of it. I loved my backcountry

[@jonstevensmaplegrovefarms3754]

i like the turbo that you tried to flat land ride, good idea! lol very impressed you ride how well you do. i watch you ride and think if you crash how long it will be and hard to get yourself back onto the sled.... any day you feel mad about your wheel chair check out this guy. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJebmZqcpqtlaa8

I just picked up my mach Z 3 weeks ago, I love the sled,comfortable, smartshox provide a great ride, engine is powerful, I'm a little disappointed like you said it's not the king of the hill, I was hoping for the lake racer, not the fast corner carver,high mileage touring sled... it did start coming around after 400 miles, I also believe it's still lazy in the throttle compared to my mxz 850, so far my '19 mxz 850 has been to 114 (still in break in) and my mach Z has been to 108, (also still in break in) both speedo readings, and not same conditions...

[@jigglefootracing3398]

boosted anything isn't going to respond like a two stroke. Good luck with the mach!

[@jerl.980]

Two completely different sleds 🛷 i rode both 2 days ago for 5h and the Z is very balanced in terms power, handling and ride quality. For trail riding it is a great ride. The Lynx is a completely different ride. It wheelies at every acceleration, it transfers power and weight like nothing else but it is still easy to ride if you are experienced. It is a hooligan sled, if you want the ride something different that will make the ride interesting especially in bumps this is your sled. My only concern is: will that ride gets old after a while. For long ride the Z to have fun on shorter ride the Lynx.

[@jigglefootracing3398]

Well said and in reality it would be nice to have both lmao. I just wish the 900 R was more capable in terms of being turned up

[@patrickraf9884]

His comment that a 4 stroke turbo needs a tune is correct. at 220-230hp the z will be mint. Lynx incredible machine but made for difference purposes. The 850 is a great motor when clutched

[@jigglefootracing3398]

mach z with a tune is still a giant turd lol

[@kwmiked]

I feel the same way with Maytrx vs Axys, Maytrx was a fail, the shocks are complete garbage compared to XRS Or the Lynx. Id buy a Lynx if they put a XRS style seat on it that went up to the tank for fast corner to corner riding and chopped off those sharp edges on the top of the side panels. The Lynx has the Best Stock outa the box shocks, that sled is far from stiff if its set up properly. Thats a nice sled, I hope they atleast put a better seat on it next yr

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I am pretty sure other seats will go on it. I didn't thin the seat was that bad really

[@tgrafrath]

Hey, In the sleds defense.... I agree that it is slow unitl 250 miles and than at 500 it really opens up. Top speed is not great. 108 max. I have a 2022 Renegade 900R

[@jigglefootracing3398]

Much faster after break in I am sure. Just don't thing the mach is going to compete with a sidewinder. I can tell you this much though it was one of the best riding sleds I have been on just a shame it won't be king. I could be wrong but mod for mod the sidewinder will just make more horsepower

[@tboystoys5682]

You no like the new Mach Z. When I seen this video I thought WHY would you buy a Mach Z. That sled back in the Day was the Boss. Today’s Mach Z is for the high mileage rider that’s going to rip it across a lake now and again and as far as all the extras how often are ya going to use it. The Lynx is a way more suitable for your riding style it’s lighter, Narrower through the tunnel and it’s a 2 STROKE YEAH BABY. 🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I respect both of them the lynx is def fun but it would of been nice to spend some time on the mach and get some studs in it lol.

[@mikecrevier4686]

No apologies given pal, there a POS without a tune, hands down. Hit up TD, Persion or Hurricane, it'll be what it is. I really appreciate your honesty 😌

[@jigglefootracing3398]

No tunes available can only get a stand alone ecu. I did see another company had something messing with stock ecu making over 200

[@rayland8553]

I can’t believe you found a Lynx! I ended up canceling my spring order.

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I was going to cancel the mach z but ended up getting it with plans on selling but found guy who who had similar interests so turned out great. I got lucky that's for sure

[@davessparetime83]

The Lynx is a good move, but the Mach Z will open up better after break in

[@jigglefootracing3398]

not enough though. Even with an aftermarket ecu its not impressive

[@anttikalpio4577]

My biggest problem with todays mach z is that it looks ordinary. 1994 Mach Z looked like Kitt and you felt like the Knightrider

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I like your analogy!

[@recklessriders8330]

Love the review! Yes that mach did look like a turd on that river run!

[@jigglefootracing3398]

in its defense the throttle cable was out of adjustment and it is still in break in

[@kwmiked]

Snow Trax just posted a video, 103 outa they're 900 turbo and it wasn't a Mach, so thats pretty lame for a Mach

[@jigglefootracing3398]

@@kwmiked this wasn't a run trying to prove anything sled had a million things against it. End of the day any 4 stroke with out a tune is a turd

[@flynnsrus9833]

What you trading this one I For next week?🤣

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I have no comment

[@michaelfoster5044]

Yesss! Nice ride!!!

[@Docfroid]

I respect your review and video. But you didn’t put many miles on. I didn’t like my new mach at first. You forget that it needs two full tanks of gas to go through for the break in perf degradation to be removed by ecu. Unless did that, al you felt was a tuned down mach z. It has equal horsepower when dynod to the thundercat and weighs less. 2 ply also has 1.25” lug vs ice ripper 1”. Once miles were on I pulled skis off on flat ground while going 35 and punching it. My weight forward. Not trying to wheelie.

[@jigglefootracing3398]

any un tuned 4 stroke is slow. The chassis is great the powerplant just isn't going to enough in my eyes at the end of the day

[@snowman5609]

My favorite machz was my 1996 that sled was fast wright out of the crate it would piss all over the 1997 machz I purchase a year later my 97 machz was a big pouch no matter what my dealer tried or even skidoo they just couldn't make it run like my 96 that son of bitch run strong from the first start.

[@MBTUE]

You need the 2 stroke feeling not the 4 stroke feeling to get that skidoofeeling !

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I feel ya on that really just need both

[@WyteOutAK]

A new guy must’ve gave it that name for a 4 stroke! Lol 😂 mach z means 2 stroke haul ass

[@jigglefootracing3398]

Lmao!

[@bigmurph1447]

The mach z should of got the 180hp 850r. Not a dam heavy ass 4 stroke

[@reichpanzer2418]

In the video as well as in the comments you state that any 4 stroke without a tune is a turd/slow. The Old Forge shootout, both this year and last as well as many easy to find videos show just the opposite. The newest turbo 4 strokes ( Sidewinder, Thundercat , Mach-Z/Renegade) consistently and fairly easily beat the 850 2 strokes in drag races. You may be used to driving a tuned sidewinder and that's why you're disappointed. The Mach-Z that you traded would surely beat the Lynx, as well as pretty much all other stock sleds in a drag race so how is it a turd/slow?

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I got rid of the mach because its just not gonna make the power I wanted. The sled rode amazing the lynx is just more fun me. And to me those shoot out prove nothing. Who care about a stock 4 stroke. Any person going fast on a 4 stroke knows a stock one isn't going t do it

[@davessparetime83]

Yes, but it wasn't fast enough for him for what the sled was supposed to be.

If ya know how to set up a z it will go without a tune. gear and clutching and loosen up the drivetrain. 120mph easy.

[@jigglefootracing3398]

no stock mach z in the world is going to compete against a tuned 998 or 1100 I have owned both. Go to bed your drunk

[@edge7074]

@@jigglefootracing3398 so you just stated the obvious 🤣 no stock sled is going to compete with a tuned sled, specially one that is 100cc bigger! Riding a wheelie everytime i hit the throttle would get old real quick. I have the Mach Z and power is not the issue, it is in the clutching. It gets so much power to the track, it just spins too hard. A little testing and messing with the clutch, and i believe it will run any 998 1100 down.

Nothing you do it's going to replace that Yamaha power that only Yamaha can deliver.

ski doo could easily deliver if the 1200 platform was used

[@shperax]

@@jigglefootracing3398 yeah I don't know why they gave up on that.

[@SPCRacing1]

And the Yamaha’s are turds too. 1,000cc and turbocharged just to make enough power to get out of its own way and all this for 100+ pounds more weight. Sure, if all you do is go in a straight line on a lake. But to each their own, right! 👍😀

[@shperax]

@@SPCRacing1 it's a pretty huge misconception that 4 stroke are still heavy with today's 4 stroke technology. Your looking at 30lb-50lb max difference these days vs the closest power 2 stroke. That's with the added turbo. If your primarily a trail rider the weight is also an advantage as you will get less ski lift powering out of corners. For a mountain sled I would still get a 2 stroke because 5 lb makes a difference in how fast you tip the sled from side to side. The crazy thing you see a lot of today is young guys buying mountain sleds and trail riding them. Just because they see cool videos of mountain sleds they think they need one of those. Then your parked on the side of the trail waiting for your mountain sled buddies to catch up.

[@alancall5113]

They should have Turbo the 1200

[@jigglefootracing3398]

I agree

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

God damn bro… let the fucking rings seat before you hold it wide open 24-7. . Breaking a motor in hard is fine and all but not literally at 0 miles 24-7 wide open. Atleast on and off and no full throttle for the first 10-15 mins to let the main parts break in lol. You will have this sled 1-2 months and sell It and lose your ass like everything anyways though I suppose 😂😂

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

Any of the 900r renegades/machs etc with a 220-240 tune are 115-118 mph sleds all day lol.. how is that a turd? I hate 4 stroke sleds but you can’t say they are turds when they don’t lose races ever on a lake. That’s what they are for. Sidewinders and thundercats destroy them though. Yamaha makes the best 4 strokes.

[@jigglefootracing3398]

apparently you haven't compared it to an 1100t or a sidewinder

[@xGR1MxREAPERx]

@@jigglefootracing3398 sidewinders will eat skidoo 4 strokes for breakfast absolutely. That doesn’t mean that a tuned mach z still won’t go 115-118 in a mile lol.. sidewinders are usually 120+ so yeah definitely faster and cooler looking too lol
