| man that's nice. I don't think you will but you are going to have to get used to the difference in power pretty quick so you don't break something or worse get hurt. when I went from my 800s to my 1k I broke 3 front axles in the first 6 months now I haven't broken one in over a year knock on wood. enjoy | |

| to good of a deal to pass up. I wanted blue but settled for the graphite. Ritchies had a sell plus the rebate which dropped them down below 19K | |

| LOL! We have only had one so far. They had to check the torque on the Turbo oil drain lines. Fingers crossed! One of the guys in our group still has his trusty 800s and has packed us what he calls a "Turbo Hook" for our rides... | |

| After 5 days of riding the Turbos all over Windrock this past weekend I can honestly say I am impressed. The low gear on the Turbo is without a doubt something to experience. The engine breaking is so strong it would actually stop itself on some of the slow downhill rock crawlings. Never had any overheating issues or belt issues and believe me it was hot as hell! So far not regretting it! BTW, my buddy with the 800s had to be pulled off Trail 12 by one of the Turbos because he broke two rear axles. We gave him hell about that since he was the one with the Turbo Hook! LOL! | |
