2025 Lynx Xterrain RE 900 Turbo R | MCX 210 Kit | Initial Thoughts

[@snowman440]

I have the exact same Sled and I can’t tell you how much I love it! Been riding for 30 years and it is extremely fun. Miles of smiles.

[@justflylow]

Hey Mike, thanks for sharing this. Lynx was not even on my radar but now with these options available it is something I may consider.

[@TheLeblancGroup]

I put 8 inch Bergstorms triple point on my Xterrain and it’s amazing!!!

[@Whissht]

Have yet to try Bergstroms on put studboys on last year they were pretty good

[@bigmurph1447]

That's my next sled. I never own a 4stroke. But the next one will be the lynx xterrain

[@speeder757]

I was thinking the same thing

[@joelaichner3025]

I ride a 144 Switchback , tried many skis , sold many skis barely used for cheap , I’m running Slydog 8 inch Powderhounds , with 10 inch carbides , nicest skis I’ve ever run on trail , they have a even nicer pair now , not out when I bought mine , tapered backs , still 1 1/4 keel , they don’t track in the lines , they cut a fresh line , smooth , no studs , 1.35 track

I have a 23 Rave 850, and my buddy has a 24 Xterrain Turbo. I'm looking at the 26 Renegade vs Xterrain and after riding my buds for awhile, I'm leaning towards the Xterrain for the comfortable ride....and those shocks, c'mon.

[@rcat7]

Hey Mike, I got to say you really look good in red!

[@TheLeblancGroup]

Also stock they have the limiter strap tucked in on number two I let mine out to number one and in my opinion it’s much funner still corners and that’s why I added the extra carbide in the front

[@dskofich]

Nice review

[@jimboyce6160]

Hey Mike when you say the Lynx is more ‘nimble’, do you feel it steers better, lighter, handles better than Renny xrs 900r, even thought it’s 146” vs 137 ? I’ve got an xrs900r and trying to decide my next sled. Liking the Lynx but not sure about 146” as I ride 99% groomed trails.

[@MrGrobert1]

What topspeed have you seen?

[@davidburns7285]

I Also have a 25 XT 900r, what have you found your favorite shock set up so far?

[@MrGrobert1]

What clutch kit do you have?

[@JohnFLamela]

Mike can you tell me how to set rear spring tension on 2025 renegade Enduro with air shock do you put air shock on 1 to set rear spring tension thanks John

[@735Films]

Does this one come with the rad+fan to help cool the motor if she reaches 100C like the Expedition's have? This is the sled I'm considering to order... I want 4 stroke for longevity but I want power. I also wanted 146 with a 1.6" lug minimum for our trails that are not groomed..

[@joedjetski1194]

No Rad fan like the expeditions. They do have the fan under the intercooler that runs when you shut the sled off. I have rode my XT 900R in some pretty crappy conditions and didn’t have any temp issues. The cooling system on the 4S’s is way better than the 2S when it comes to running in crappy conditions.

[@Kevin-ix4qz]

Ore info on that track please!

[@sledaddicz]

It's sold out for the season unfortunately is what I was told. It is absolutely wicked tho. Camso Ice Arrow 1.35 track.

[@Kevin-ix4qz]

Looking forward to your opinion on it at some point. Looked interesting

[@joelaichner3025]

Is Lynx the Cadillac , and Skidoo is just a Chevy , or What ?

[@Whissht]

Yeah pretty much both BRP products. Share many of the same components. Lynx more designed for European/nordic countries so heavier duty suspension, reinforced chassis etc. Skidoo more tailored for North America more focus on lighter weight and trail performance

[@joelaichner3025]

So ? Your saying ! If you pound it hard ! No Mercy ! Buy a Lynx , Skidoo is a skinny girl , break her bones poundings , maybe not ? But she’ll need a Walker at a young age

[@brewaire]

Nice footage, sounds like a great sled and set up. Heard of a couple guys throwing checking engine lights with the MCX? Not sure if they're not set up right? Over reving them? Supposedly you have to let the sled "learn" the kit before you really give it the BEANS 🫘?

[@sledaddicz]

You are correct. If not clutched properly,, they will overboost and throw a check engine light. Cheers, Mike

[@brewaire]

@sledaddicz Hey Mike, I appreciate the reply. Someone said, ride the sled when you get the MCX kit like you're breaking in a belt. Then let 'er rip. Would you agree with that statement? Thanks, Tom.
