I did not know about that torque spin up feature with the steel belt. I think that would be a no go for me. I have a Defender Max Limited and ride that country down there. It is beautiful and you definitely need to pay attention as the driver so as to no go over the edge.
Yeah that’s been the biggest issue and it’s a big one. Polaris has done several updates and it’s getting better. The aftermarket tuning has also addressed that issue.
Trails above Silverton are the bomb. It sucks that I didn't get up there this year. Better make it a priority for next year. Damn adulting and not enough weekends :)
Love these trails but I have to ask what is the point of getting an enclosed side by side for 30k when you can pick up an old XJ for 2k and do the same stuff without a CVT? Those side by sides are just as wide, longer, and not road legal (in most states). I really fail to see the value of these things at this point.
There is some tuning software that improves the transmission ability to “lock up” but as you can see in my video this one isn’t fixed just yet. The latest update seems to have fixed the issues according to those that have done it.
Take me back!! The kiddos are still talking about it ❤
Simple but the kids loved this trip for sure.
Love it there!! We just got back a month ago with our xpedition, It done WONDERFUL!!!
It’s hard to beat the San Juan’s!

I was there in August did it in my VW dune buggy. Love it up there.
We love it up there. We are fortunate to live only a couple of hours away.
Enjoyed the vid Guys!
Thanks!

It’s tough when adulting gets in the way. Gotta make it back soon
i dont think i could get use to the winding up of the belt it sounds like the belt is slipping when it most likely is not.
Yeah not a fan of that

You are right. These machines are getting to the point it hard to justify. They are smoother and more nimble than a jeep.
How’s the inside cab noise on this unit I’ve been looking at new machine just sick of the noise from the cvt drive units
This machine is super quiet. If you look through our reels we have one of us driving at 45 mph and I show the dbs around mid 70’s.
What updates did Polaris do?

@@505Outsiders thanks for the information your videos on the 1500 have been very helpful
Glad we can help
I hope you're correct. I'm trading in my Xpedition on a 2025 1500 Northstar crew !!@505Outsiders
