Very cool to see a Lynx in North America and ST able to review it!!! Thanks guys - Cant wait to see the test ride!

It will be nice to see a totally different sled on the trails. I've always loved the Lynx look. Refreshing!!

Good review man i do agree it’s a good looking sled can’t wait to try one out or see one out on the trails !

These videos and the year end riding impressions videos are 10x better than any reviews you guys do for tv. Great to hear honest unscripted opinion. Keep them up.

This sled is cool! I like how its just that little bit different in style, its refreshing to see! I would consider one of these!

Never been a BRP person. I like the looks of this machine. Great video Luke. I don't think anyone does a better semi-unscripted review of a product like you do.

600 miles of smiles on my Rave and it has been incredible. Suspension set on Normal and it’s deep without being too harsh. I’m able to use every bit of it in whooped out sections or big G-outs, yet attack most trail chatter at crazy speeds. Going to install more aggressive carbides before the next ride. Everything Luke said and more! Tons of fun! Tom in Pennsylvania

These things are awesome, love the walkaround format too. Might be my next sled!

Such an awesome looking sled. Hope you guys are having a blast!

Basically its a consumer race sled which is amazing

Perfect timing for "unpredictable grooming" due to COVID, based on your description they knew when to realise this. Great description of what this sled is for thanks, and keep up the good work!!!!

Nice to see that you guys got Lynx over there! It's been many years since i had an Lynx, Ski-Doo for me, but a big fan of lynx! Greetings from sweden!

Love your show! I record every episode! The nee Lynx looks like an Awesome sled! I rode my buddy’s VR 1 yesterday and it is very impressive! Hard to believe how much better it corners than my 2019 850 Indy!! Always enjoy your shows!

I am from Sweden and i say it just like you. Love your content

Great review and explanations. Sounds like my ideal sled, that never existed here. Most likely ordering one. Just scheduled a test ride.

Good review and great getting it out there asap with time for spring ordering. Also wanted to say that I like these two quick videos on the lynx more than most of the show videos, just seems more real. Not that the show ones are bad, these just seemed more real and fun.

I think that's gonna be my next sled,can't wait to see some more reviews on it.

I like your video's and the one's on this sled especially. After watching all your video's on this sled, I ordered one for this season. I ride in northern Wisconsin mostly for the past 30yrs. I know my trails very well and me and my son ride very hard and fast but safe. I ride a 04 rev 800 and my son has been riding his trail converted 09 mxzx 600rs since he was 12. I bought it from a racer that got hurt before the race season that year. For the last 10yrs people have been trying to keep up with us and haven't. I'm 57yrs old now he 26yrs old. I been thinking with my age that I might need alittle help this season with more speed. I think this sled will help me go faster more easily. My son said it sounds like a sled he will be ordering next year himself. Keep up the good work.

Great walk around Luke! As someone looking at a Matryx Switchback Assault or BackCountry XRS for 2022...this Rave looks interesting.

Before this video I thought I wanted it, now I know I need this!

Great show I watch it when I can lol...l like that there is no back doors and you tell it like it is when you talk about what ever sled it is that u r riding...keep up the great work and ride safe..thanks

Wonderful video. Very descriptive and informative.

Here’s my opinion you should send it to me and my two-year-old daughter and I will enjoy it for the season and tell you how good it is LOL it looks amazing. Wasn’t planning on a new snowmobile in the future but I would love one of these. That being said you do an amazing job telling people what things really are about.

Can't wait for a full review!! Great walk around !!!

This is one of the most entertaining sled I ever drove, suspension is great and even if brp owns them this is not a skidoo repilca not even clutches are weight the same. I were close to go for a 2020 Rave RE but didn't pull the trigger and still running Polaris 850 assault m19. But the Rave RE is hardcore and maybe my next sled😉

Great review! Nothing wrong with screwdriver adjusted shocks, one less widget to break. Very clean looking sled, function vs fluff which is nice to see.

It only makes sense to spread the tech around. Interesting rear suspension. Great review as always Luke. cheers

Awesome looking sled, by far my favourite BRP that I’ve seen in years might consider coming back to BRP, would love to see it running and good rip vid! And see what you guys think, I think this would be great in Newfoundland!

I’m obsessed with this sled

best looking BRP sled I have seen in some time, taller seat a bonus for our well over 6 ft tall.

very cool, I would have loved a sled like that when i lived in Anchorage Alaska when I was a teenager and road ditches and moose trails all around were i lived off of Campbell lake.

Luke, super cool review. I know Tom and Janice and actually Jamie babysat our kids. Also love the old episode where they actually went riding with you in ON. Keep up the great work!

just bought one sight unseen!!! thanks for the GREAT reviews!!

this style of reviews on a sled is so much more entertaining then the super scripted reviews. Raw impressions with a bunch of info about the sled is great. More refined then what you guys were doing last season.

Really looking forward to seeing your test ride. When riding trails do you find the seated position to be natural or do you have to stand?.

Hi luke great review .it looks a bit like a arcticcat headlight down it's a sharp looking sled like the colours.

I could tell he was pumped. That's awesome

Hey Excellent review 👌 and I totally agree that's an awesome looking sled that thing looks mean! if you look back behind you and saw that fella flying up at high speed, lookout! Now next question where will they be available in 🇨🇦Canada!? I want to see you riding too!

Very interested to see the test ride this is right up my ally

I want one, looks amazing

Awesome first review. Long term will tell if the wheelie issue become a problem. Like one of the other reviews, accessory windshield would be nice. And when the 600 comes to North America, I am.there to buy one. Didn't catch it, is it. Electric start only? Thanks again

Skidoo is great. Absolutely fantastic brand. Next good one inline is Lynx Boondocker 850. Worth a look.👍

Doo for the win and most will complain about price but it’s big time best shock package available on any sled and yes agree very nice looking sled 👍 for those that would use it for that type of riding thanks for the good info and break down

Nice review of the differences compared to Ski-doo. It is very helpful!

Great review , although I am not a skidoo fan AT ALL , I have had only 2 "pretty good." BRP machines. A summit, and an XRS. It's a good think I had awesome dealer support , or I would have stopped purchasing BRP sleds way back in 2004.

I put 100 miles on one last week and the suspension is everything they say it is, was very impressed.

Great review like always 👍

Great 👍 walk around Luke. The front end of that machine looks like an older corvette with that raised hood. The rear skid is very interesting if I ride local there’s no groomed trails they only groom in the highlands. It makes you wonder if there is more to BRP bringing this sled in, like maybe replacing a couple of sleds off there production if it sells which I think it will. Anyway thanks 🙏 for the answers I’m sold and your truly excited about this ride so that says alot in my books anyway. Ride Safe Guys 🤙🤙🤙🤙

Love this video. I'm glad you like the "basic" gauge as well. If next season there's no boondocker 3700RE ill probably get this sled with a 1.75 track. Ride it on the sno x track as well as a trail ride. I also like the smooth panels more than skidoo stepped panels

This is what we needed in Canada for guys like me who doesn’t ride on the trails and just wants a wheelie sled for ditch bagging

We need more snowmobile like that in up north of 60 in Canada big time

Im not a snowmobiler im a drag racer and that looks like a bad ass drag bike !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice overview.

I've been wanting to see lynx in Canada ever since I saw the first picture of one (in your magazine in....maybe 1992ish?). At the time it looked like a futuristic mach 1 to me. I can't remember the model but looked so cool. Obviously since then we have all learned more about the company. Good move brp. Bring over their version of the expedition next. I love the clickers

Would be nice if they made more of these rough trail snowmobiles. Also a utility model would be nice. Even like a 600 or 550. Especially for Northern Canada where all we have are rough bush trails.. so many coils have snapped where I live lol
