Glad to hear it I've got about 80 km's or 50 miles so far and share the same fealings, best sled I've ever driven, as far as total package of handling ergo's and response from the mill. And it can only get better, when I burn out the chip and get out on our trail system, groomed or not I think it will still be a blast!! :D

Sounds like you guys are having fun! I think my new Rev 600 hasn't hit the manufacturing production line. Dealer said shipment is expected around the first or second week of December. I don't know why it's taking so long. From hearing you guys talk about how much you love these sleds, it does sound like it will be worth the wait. Not much snow at present here in Vermont anyhow, so I don't mind waiting for my sled too much.

The same thing happend to me last year with my 02 mxzx 800..i didnt get my sled tell dec 5...my dealership never gave a reason..they just said thats when it will be done...so this year I seeked a new dealer...They had it ready nov5..I was happy with the fast service...now allz we need is the snow belt to kick in!! sorry about your luck..once you get it...you will never remember you waited for it !!


03 Rev 800 sport rer

hey VT-

hang in there... I got a chance to try out my REV 800X two weeks ago and it was sweet!

believe me, it will be worth the wait! !!!

Does any one know how many miles you need on the REV before you burn out the chip? ;)

owner manual says 300 miles..

I talked to a doo mech. and it varies from sled to sled, but it's suposed to be 4hrs running time, and with the hr meter on the rev it will be easier to track the time it will take. Ive got 80km's and 1hr and 45 minutes so far. Last year on my renegade 800 it was around the 375-400 km mark that the sled woke up. You don't notice a huge jump in performance, but we regularly line up and drag each other, and that's were you notice it. 3-4 sled lengths in 660ft is hard to feel but easy to see! :sly:

Nothing some duct tape and a stand can't fix

hey slugo you must be popular at your local golf club! :nervous:

The golf cart is half the fun!!!!!!!

I got to figure out how to "burn out the chip on all golf carts."
Wheelies are fun

3-4 sled lengths after the chip expires, Ya right. Dont think so.

Well I did on my gade last winter, why would i bull sh.......

I was just testing never added a picture to a post before

Kenny Sorry if I offended you but 3-4 sled lengths wasnt from the chip, Maybe from the sled loosening up. Been involved with the series three from 2000 and we didnt see it. Heard all kinds of stories about the chip. The best one I heard was from tt670. He was at a dealership and the punk behind the counter said when the chip on his sled expired the sled almost went over backwards. No offense intended.

By the way, nice sled!!!

thanks man, didn't want to get any feathers ruffeled, enjoying both renegade and rev, can't waite to kick it!!!

Wish I had a brand new sled this year..... :inlove: Nice sled!

Hey sled crazy you shoudn't give away all your secrets like that!! :D :D

Hey kennypope, is that the Pillsbury Dough Boy on your Rev in the second pic. ?

yep that fat little ####### can really ride!!! :blahblah:

nice looking sled..mine is the black sport 800 rer..i learned about yellow last year(with my mxzx 800 two tone)..it just get to dirty..i was riding in the UP of MI..and i got red clay on my belly of my sled..and it never came off...not even with my pressure washer..and my dads black mxz looked like new..

03 rev 800

Sled looks great :) We just need some Snow :devil:

Don't ride on the clay! Try using Turtle Wax Bug and Tar remover... keeps my yellow machine looking like new.

I used armor-all on the rough belly pan plastic on my wife's legend (silver plastic) and the orange washed right off, I ride western UP all the time and do the same on the ATVs. Wax on the smooth parts, armor-all on the rough and vinyl parts and WD-40 on the metal parts and it will wash clean every time. ;) If it's already stained, you could try bleach white(sp) but test it on a small out of the way area first, that's how I got the stains off the underside of the fenders on the ATVs. Hope this helps you some.

I think my dealer has a cleaning agent that works well to clean the plastic on the bomb's, anyone that had a yellow mxz used it. This is my first yellow doo and I think I'm going to need it. The side panels on the rev show dirt very well. But I don't regret getting yellow, aslong as there is a way to clean it.

Hey....you said you had a 02 MXZ 800...just picked one up, 2002 with 130 miles, bascially brand new. Will I like, how fast? Had a 1999 Polaris XCR 700 last season, triple, very very fast, but heavy.....will the MXZ 800 keep up. Has to be faster than your Rev 600???

Rock on... :hallo1:
