Love the new look after having them in garage for awhile(wasn't biggest fan at first), they look like they are ready to rip your head off

WOW! Not good...did you catch before actually running it?
It looks like both????
It's the ONE picture that is posted on multiple websites that is making the rounds. Sad to see but it happens. I think it is an early build from a mountain sled.

And you wanted yours early!!!!! Lol
not sure of build date but like every new sled the dealers do not always do there job and U need to do it for them. those motor's come fully assembled and dropped in to the sled as they roll on by . if it is on 1 it is on more . in fact if I understand the story that was a pick from 1 of 2 that blew together on there maiden voyage. 1 blew and his buddy blew towing him back .
1st yr of anything U can keep em from tosters to jets I want nothing to do with being the paying tester any more
This reminds me of a funny story; in 2004 I bought a new leftover 2003 REV 800 that blew at about 150 miles. I rode it from Green Bay, WI to Wausau and was on my way back to G.B. when the motor tightened up. I let it cool down and rode it few more miles until it tightened again. I opened the oil injection can and it was dry. Turns out it did not have much oil in it when I bought it and I did not check it (dummy me).
Dumb me, luckily the Dealer warrantied the work (only one cylinder and on piston set-up) and I was back on the trail.
By the way, that sled rode so awesome from the Cats/Polaris I was riding the past few years I was sold on REV. Consequently, that sled was a pig on gas/oil, it regularly got 9 MPG and the oil to go with it.
