SKI DOO EXPEDITION EXTREME REVIEW-LONG TERM  

I have this same machine with 3 Quebec trips and 5200 miles on it. It uses a qt of oil approximately every 140 miles, fuel economy is controlled by your right thumb, can get 13.5 mpg if you are smooth with the throttle, I totally disagree about these deep snow skis that come on the sled, if you like darting , especially slowing down they are great...put Simmons gen 1 skis on this sled,and it's like a razor blade, you will never make a bigger improvement to the sled. The track is silent and the traction is mind bending, you can rise with anyone on this sled, it's an incredible sled. Zoller Racing Products make a set of 1 inch offset spindles for this sled and back countries and they make it handle 3 times better with no inside ski lift cornering, you can really ride this sled quite aggressively and everyone who rides it comes off it with a big smile, you really don't need to know anymore. Low gear is great and I have pulled a lot of stuck sleds out with ease...the rear bumper is junk and will bend like a pretzel if you try to tow with it, you need the 300 dollar up grade...sled has been bullet proof and is the best touring sled I have ever ridden , perfect for Quebec trips as it can haul a lot of gear effortlessly, the XRS front shocks off a backcountry are an incredible upgrade and you can use the same springs , very nice sled when you get up to a foot of fresh snow...no problem with this sled and all your friends will be glad you were there to break trail, I put the extendable medium to high windshield on as well as the glove box extension and garmin GPS with Trak Maps and gauntlets...it's my go anywhere anytime sled and with a fuel caddy 160 miles a tank is very doable, a very nice feeling, if you are thinking about this sled ...just do it...it may look like grand dads sled...but it's going to put a big smile on your face...everyone who rides it gets on it with 1 expectation and off it with a totally different experience...ski doo hit a grand slam here...and they are selling really well in Canada...also you just cannot believe how well it rides and turns...you keep looking back at stops not believing all that 154 inches is there...you'd never know it...and the ride quality...probably the very best on snow!!

Great review. I just bought a 2021 used with very low mileage. Traded in my 2015 renegade. Can’t wait for the snow. I watched all your ski doo videos. Great stuff

Great video, one of the best reviews of any sled I've seen.

Incredibly thorough review, very well done. I would buy that machine in a heartbeat. Know a few people with them and they love them

By far the best expedition review/ walk through that I have seen! Thanks! I order the 2023 model with the 900 ace turbo and I can’t wait 😁

Thanks for such a great review!!! I have ordered a 2023 model. My use will be similar to yours. Sure helped me confirm my choice. Enjoying your videos. Have fun spring riding.

FYI, the 2-up seat comes in an electric version with a heated seat, hand grips and a heated visor connection

Fantastic review. Everything I would want to know was covered. No wasted words or time. To the point and unbiased. You should consider writing for a magazine.

Nice video and review, Thanks for sharing!

Great review Side X Each! Anyone considering buying this machine should view.

Great review...Skidoo should hire you!

excellent review and video! Thank you sir. I'm looking at the Extreme and SE model.

2023 pre-order turbo r just arrived. watched the whole thing. Trying decode on the 135l cargo box or not. Awesome review thx.

Just picked up the same exact sled with only 104 miles on it 66% break in, cant wait for it to snow!

Great video. Thank you. I just purchased my first ever Ski-doo, a 2023 Expedition SE and I'm very much looking forward to it, particularly the two-up trail capability with my wife and the ability to get in to some of our smaller remote lakes. BTW...I work for Cat so I'm a little partial, but I like your ballcap.

Thx for the review. Real world what I wanted to see

Excellent review. Thank you so much..

Great overview, thank you.

Great, comprehensive review Side X Each. Well done! I'm in the market for one of these used. I see some of the ones listed as having new motors. Usually around the 6-7000 kms mark. Is this something I should be aware of? Do you know of any recalls or issues with these engines? Thanks

What a great review I like these

Great Video! I am considering this machine and this was very helpful!

Nice review. I also have the same sled. Saw some local signs on your trails. You are close to my area

Very helpful review. I have ‘22 model. Any mechanical maintenance videos would be really helpful! Thanks a lot

Awesome review man, very good detail. 👌

I have the same sled with a little over 5k miles purchased new. My dealer installed studs and they worked great. Unfortunately i had a track failure from a pretty agressive hil climb where I hooked up with a stump pretty hard at about 5000 miles. I decided to go with an ice cobra which is decent but no substitute for the full on pics. Woody's makes pics that will fit the 1.8.

Excellent video!

Beautiful Machine

Great video. Seriously man, you've got skills. snowtrax who? 😂

Great review.

When it comes to trail riding if the back portion of the skid is left to float do you find you fight to keep the front end on the ground? I get that some guys like to wheelie, but I'd be more interested in keeping the skis planted with razor sharp handling. Can you get this out if this skid with the right settings? Does the sled push if you lock the rear skid to stop the articulation?

Thanks for the review! How do you feel about the lighting - wondering if adding on some of the available lighting options would be wise with my order? Also how do you find the Oxygen Helmets?

I pick mine up tomorrow!

So you ordered a standard 2-up seat? I can’t get the heated version due to back order issues. Was it difficult to add the heating options?

Can you swapp in a 900 ace turbo to replace the 850

I’m looking to buy expedition extreme do you know where there are any for sale?

Sounds like you are always asking a question. Annoying. Pitch rises at end on sentence

Nice machine, what if you get it stuck?
