Loved it
It took a lot of riding to finally get the shocks set right for me 1000-1400 miles but after I got them set I loved the machine. FYI if you want your front skis to plant and corner like a race car you have to drill a new hole in your front limit strap make it shorter and then run over everyone infront of you going through the corners. I drive groomed trails but I drive very aggressive.

I love this sled!
I have had many snowmobiles and the XCR 600 Switchback is the best handling sled I have ever owned. I have always ridden Indys but this sled was a 2020 leftover that caught my eye and decided to try it. Corners like a dream and as a 60-year-old woman, I can easily keep up with the men on the trails. Only issue I had was with not much snow this season and icy trails, it had a tendency to run hot. Added a pair of scratchers, hoping that eliminates this issue next season. Great sled!

Best handling sled..
Can easily put on 200 miles a day at fast safe speeds over any conditions on the trail.
Stays on the trails exactly where I want it around any corner.

Great suspension
This sled runs and rides awesome! Can't believe Polaris is getting away from this suspension.

Nice sled
Nice sled but needs a little more aggressive track and more storage.

Awesome trail ditch banger
This thing is bullet-proof. never let me down thru the most horrible, over-used & ungroomed trails.
600 was never an issue keeping up with 8's.

Impressed Since First Seeing XCR In Showroom
The XCR 800 Switchback is a phenomenal sled on and off trails here in central Saskatchewan. The ride and handling is super. The suspension travel is second to none for mid-60 year olds like me.

I love this chassis
I bought an Indy 136 early on in the year after having a 2015 switchback and had to get back on this sled. What a fun fast sled that can absolutely rain through the corners right out of the box.

Most fun I've ever had on a snowmobile.
Lots of low end power but wish it was faster on the top end.

My Dream Sled THAT DOESNT RUN!
This sled has been in the shop 3 times. It only has 600 miles on it. The software has been upgraded twice. Currently it does not start. The last time it ran we pulled it up in the trailer to make room for my wife's new 2020 XC850 and because of the pandemic we cannot get anyone to work on it till October.

Best handling/riding machine I’ve ever owned
I love my xcr switchback so much. The power the handling and of course the ride. You can’t even feel the bumps. The pidd gauge is awesome as well, simple to use. Can’t wait to hit the trail again!

Best trail sled I have ever ridden
Best trail sled, flat running with no ski lift. Not an off the trail sled, terrible in deep snow. Keep it on the trail and love it.

Very Dependable
Have been riding Polaris Snowmobiles since 1972. Every sled I have owned has been virtually trouble free.

awesome all around sled
Been such a fun sled! Im completely confident steering and cornering with its ability to eat the trail and love its capabilities to compete with mountain sleds in deeper snow

Best sled I've ever ridden
I've driven a lot of Polaris sleds since I got into snowmobile and this new 2020 850XCR SB is the most incredible sled to date. It gives me a whole new comfort level and it's definitely changed the game for me. I'm so happy with this sled.

Smooth
Great riding sled. I transitioned from a 121 inch track to this 137 inch track. This skid is fantastic. A great ride. Also, the cooling system has been improved. The sled always stays cool no mater the conditions.

Best out of the box snowmobile I have ever owned
I really like almost everything about my XCR 850 from the ergonomics to the amazing ride quality. I have never ridden a better sled out of the box.

Great handling and throttle response.
This XCR is a great riding and handling machine. The throttle response is awesome, barely need to depress it to get up and moving quickly. Great reliability, never an issue.
