I don't like the engine braking on the polaris. AC has excellent engine braking.

Just my 2 pennies worth

swampjuniory I beleive you will be waiting quite a while for manual trannies on the big bores to come back, its a posibility but, whats better than driving and having instant power at all speeds with out shifting , thats why they dont have manual trannies on snomobiles.Of course all this is just my opinion. I once said I wouldnt own one , then I drove one loved it I dont think Ill go back. I also dont believe the H1 motor will hold a candle to the 650 V- TWIN KAWI engine that is now in the cat . the V s rule in the power and torque department. I would've gone with the cat.

i am a arctic cat rider so i recommend it. even though i haven't pushed much snow this year in minnesota. but i was out riding on a muddy trail and 6 guys with 700 and one 800 polaris were standing on the edge of a big mud hole and i came up with mine.... and they said to me "YOU NOT PLANING ON GOING IN THERE WITH YOUR LITTLE 650 ARE YOU" and i laughed at them and said "i will at least try it not just park next to it"; and they told me i would never make it. well i tryied it and the muddy water came up to the handlebars and they laughed and my wheeler shut off on its own. they said have fun with that. so i locked the diff four wheel drive and hit the ignition and fired up and i gave her full throttle all the way threw it. then the guy wit a 700 tried it and couldn't make it. cause of the belt getting wet and slipping. i got pictures to laugh at. good luck with your choice
