Was this chassis going to be as big a step change as the first AXYS was back in 2015 with the (hinged) PRO-XC suspension? Past Forward I was skeptical about this iteration of the AXYS when it was first revealed. The Indy XC 850 as mentioned has a lot of new and old, so this winter season was a lot of fun for me. Now at the end of the season, had this sled in my opinion lived up to my expectations?Īs an engineer, I am a detailed oriented person always analyzing every test sled from a design, manufacturing and process (riding) point of view. The Indy XC 850 featured a lot of new (Patriot 850 motor, PRO-CC rear suspension and a new tunnel built around a 129” track length) and lot of familiar parts (same bulk head, clutching, front suspension, styling, rider position).
My time spent on the 2019 Indy XC 850 had been a winter that started with tons of anticipation for this new Polaris trail performance sled that I call AXYS 2.0. We all know that moment when we have just completed our last ride of the season. As I drove the Indy XC 850 onto the trailer after my last ride of the season, I sat listening to the rumble of that big twin idling and then turned the key off.
