Can anyone tell me what kind of mileage I could expect out of a AC 1000 trail sled with EFI, under normal condtions, and are there any problems with a sled like this, also this is an 07.

Thanks in advance
Bill

I'm sure a lot of other guys can jump in with more specific info, but based on some average riding I get around 14 miles per gallon on my 07 f8, and a guy I rode with that had 07 1000 seemed to put about the same amount of gas in everytime I did so I'd put it in that range.

As far as problems, can't give you details, but seems like a lot of people say the 1000 had a lot of different issues. I had a dealer tell me recently to stay away from one while looking in the used market. Not good news to you if you just picked one up, but hopefully you'll have good luck with it.

Ac 1000 did not stay in the line up very long. No market, bad engine just don't know? Usually a good reason when hyper sled is dropped from line up just like Doo Mach.

the 1000 is a blast to run especially with mods.
they are great as long as u sell them before crank blows up.
I sold my 1000 at around 1600mi and was glad to see it go.
no issues on it when I sold but that was as far as I was willing to shake the dice.
I have buds with over 3k on them no issues and buds on there 3rd motor in 4k.
would I buy a used 1000? not unless it was clean clean with under 400mi and I would expect to lose big money on it at resale and I would always want to bring my back up
