POLARIS BOOST ASSAULT REVIEW | IS IT GOOD?!?! 

I’m a bigger guy 6’2” 225lbs and I rode 2 Assaults from 2013 - 2020. (2013 Pro chassis and a 2017 Axys). I switched to a 137 VR1 in 2021 because I ride 85-90% trails and I thought I would get a big handling improvement. The VR1 is better in real tight twisty trails and the ride is better in chatter bumps, but overall I miss my Assault. The Assault is more playful on the trail and the handling is very close to a 137 VR1, plus I had to upgrade all the spring on the VR1 to to the same spec as the Assault. I would suggest setting your shock damping at the perfect ride setting in the owner manual and then making 2 click adjustments on the trail to tune the ride and handling to your liking. Enjoy the Wheelies!!!!!!

I found that the Matryx handles way better if you soften up the front a little. I had a demo last year and when I first got on it didn't handle anwhere near as good as my 22 XRS. I took a few clicks out of the front and it made all the difference in the world. Absolutely handled on rails after that.

I'm a bigger guy like you and you couldn't be more right about the 137👍👍

Looks like a fun sled!

Sweet sled dude. Glad you love it

90% of my riding is ditch banging and try to find deep stuff (hard these days tho) I love my 21 Assault for this kind of riding. Ripping on that thing and hanging skis is so much fun! I don't care if my sled turns lol. I only have 5 rides on this unit so I'll still have to play around with the suspension settings to fine tune it for my riding.

My lord those snow conditions are atrocious. To each their own, but I can't ride my $25,000 snowmobile in such abhorrent conditions. Still enjoyed the video and your feedback.

You should hop on that Gen 5 and give us a review compared to the Polaris. I know one is a crossover and one is a trail sled but would be interested in the pros and cons of each! I’m considering ordering a renny, assault or possibly backcountry or lynx depending on if they get upgraded for my24

If I lived in a snow state I would have a skidoo turbo or a boost...

10 days of riding damn you are lucky

damn man speed limits everywhere lol I image it is hard to stay out of the throttle with that thing.

Guys got a 146 on straight rocks I got 2000 miles this year living in New York and Havnt seen a rock once

so if I am 6'3 I shouldnt get one? I like to stand. Should I get this or a Freeride 146????????????????????

Just a question how did u mount the ice scratcher on

how do you like your ckx mission

They have no wind protection

What kind of gas mileage does it get?

Do you miss the SRX?

All those nice open bush spots to stop and play, and you guys just go by them………….

1275 on mine and it blew up

The snowmobiles nowadays have no in protection and they look like s***
