I always see that claim on the 800 motor and find it hard to believe. I have the 2011 800 and it is strong through the middle, but it just doesn't feel like that kind of hp on the top. It is much better than the early 800 all the through the middle though.
I wonder how much boost the newer motor design will take? Is it truely a different motor? We will soon see if it is different.
I see that the F and XF are the same sleds up front. Not sure on the skid? I would welcome a more trail friendly XF sled. The last two years on the CF were really short M sleds and not much fun on trails.
I totally disagree... I hope the XF is stretch out to a 144, ditch all the coupling ****, pull the stupid sway and comes stock with a gps built into the dash. If you want to ride trails... get a trail sled.
