I prefer watching older sleds, new sleds just makes everything too easy, and not everyone can afford or want to push that amount of money on newer sleds. Like me :D

I’ve owned a 2006 Rev identical down to the trunk behind the seat for 10 years now and with yearly maintenance and upgrades, I keep up with guys on 2023 Matrix Boosts line for line and pull for pull. The Rev really was the turning point for sleds. After 10 years now my sled is a 163 2.5” with narrow an arms, performance mods and CLUTCHING as you found out while doing pulls. Nowhere my 23” buddies have gone that I haven’t made it. Keep the old sleds going! The resto-mods are real

Would love to see a upgrade series of this! Like seeing what u are capable to do with it and how much it can be improved!

[@mobilewintercamp7515]

Funny how the sport has actually leveled off. This sled almost 20 years old is quite capable. 20 years before this sled such terrain was unthinkable

[@SlipperyDucky]

Been riding mountains since the 80’s it used to take us days and days just to go up the trail. Then it would snow and reset the whole challenge over again 😂

[@Trad-Am]

​@@SlipperyDucky: Oh, I remember those days, mine was on a phazer. Mountain riding has completely changed from growing up in the 80's. Now my Axys RMK isn't even the current chassis.

[@joel387ktm]

So true until the skidoo rev chassis was introduced mou tain sleds were basically trail sleds with longer tracks and narrower ski stance same chassis

[@Trad-Am]

@@joel387ktm: could make that same argument for the M series. The M7 in 2005 was a game changer.

Amazing how far them sleds have came over the yrs. But for a 18 yr old sled, it did real good. And i used to lov how a guy could jump on a dirt bike and then a sled in winter time and header out right from your front door. I person can ride anywhere in that town and have a blast. Right up that road behind where you loaded up was great spot to rip when there used to be more snow there of course. Great vid

Heck yea 🤘

Don't have to be new to be fun! We got our 2 ZX chassis 800 Summits out on the mountain last year after being in storage for 15 years, plus one S chassis 97 Summit 670. These were my first rides in 15 years, and my sons first rides ever. We had an absolute blast! Just waiting for snow now...

[@simpledj509chromo7]

It's cool seeing these old sleds work. I've ridden a sled once and would like to get into it. Had the misfortune of riding a Yamaha 600 or something. It was a pile of junk compared to the two stroke Ski-Doos we also rented. No chance I could afford a new sled but something like this is more manageable budget wise. And it looks like it has plenty of potential to get around and learn on.

[@black42shark]

im well versed in these old sleds, takes a bit to wake them up not like my new 850, a set of boyesen rage cages a clutch kit a can and a rktek head would do wonders, better yet a rk tek drop in kit for these 800s, my old one is a 600ho turned 700 and it kept up with the 800s done up the same. another funny thing on these the sc3 skids seem to outperform the sc4 ones

I would like to hear a more in detail debrief about how it is.

[@robgoffroad]

I had one of those, bought new in 2003 for the 03-04 season. I HATED it. It was hard to turn, it wouldn't stay on edge (it would either go back flat or tip all the way over) and the motor was very unreliable... ring delamination issues. I dumped the start of the next season and went to an Arctic Cat M7. Bit of a power loss but VASTLY better sled in ever way.
