This is a beautiful old style looking sled. It has its ups and downs, but it’s an overall good machine. It performs fairly well and although it’s not one of the fastest sleds I don’t think you’ll be complaining if you get it. It’s also very, very comfortable. Handling is an easy job and you’ll love it. It’s not the best when it comes to gas mileage, but none of the big sleds is so you can’t really expect miracles. The thing is pretty reliable and besides some defects, were gonna talk later for, I think you’re gonna like it very much.

One of the most popular recalls that Polaris will most certainly spare you is about the fuel tank. It tends to split at the gas cap and you can be sure that this will certainly ruin your vacation. You have to check up with your dealer about any recalls and decide on place whether the sled is worthy. Many of the things can be voided if you know about them, so be sure to ask before you get the sled (or any Polaris sled of that matter). My opinion is that the 800 XC SP is fairly good sled for the price given and if you like it you should get it, but not before you’ve checked those newer and upgraded versions of it.
