2005 Polaris Fusion 900 (50th Anniversary)

Better than most think!

The fusion 900, although it had it's fair share of issues, is an amazing piece of machinery. There were a few things that could be changed from the factory ( Skis, belt ) and it could use an SLP Hot Air Vent Kit. Overall though, I really don't think this sled should have been put under PERFORMANCE b...y the industry, more of a rough trail sled. The walker evans clickers allow the sled to be great in the ditches, as well as in the trails. These sleds are also capable of a good 114-115 stock, with an insane low end when you have hookup. The vibration is not like most have heard. It is MORE than tolerable, as it vibrates like any big twin does. It shakes much less than my ZR 800 did, and the vibration is pretty much eliminated after 1850rpms. Please, before you try to judge this sled by what you have read, try one out, and take it for a rip. I think you will be impressed. Read Full Review

Awesome Sled and a Great value

Is/was it perfect, nope, name a brand with a 100% success in a first model introduction. A few changes, all of which were available in after-market, or simple tech tips offered by the industry. This machine rips, handles with any machine on the market today. Get the SLP performance parts, Polaris... updates and follow the Team tips, and you will have a sled that will whip 99% of what is available today. For a price that is laughable. Thanks to all the whiners for destroying its resale value, because in the right hands this machine is a bargain, and a true monster. Read Full Review

These sleds have gooten a bad "rap"

I have a 2005 Blue Anniversary edition 900 Fusion, and have had no trouble with it, and it has over 3,900 miles on it. I am a large person, 6'5" and 280 pounds, and this sled does 100 MPH in 12" of powder on the lake with me on it! I can stay with or beat any newer 800 sled, and in deep ...powder, no one catches me. This is the best sled I have owned to date. Not only is this sled a lake monster, it has excellent trailer manners as well. I think they are a great buy! I was clocked on a lake in central Minnesota at 118 MPH.[The DNR guy was pissed!]
Great sled. I recommend it to anyone.
Sled is for sale if anyone is interested. Read Full Review

Under-Rated Performance sled

I love this sled because I can keep up if not WHIP larger sleds with ease. Quick throttle response, carves tight corners with no problem. When you're behind me- watch out for my ROOST when I hammer it! This thing pulls the skis with little effort. So comfortable to ride sitting or standing for lo...ng periods of time, love the customizable handlebar settings! Rider exertion is not an issue.. except for HOLDING the F- ON!! Warmest sled to ride as your feet are heated by the exhaust and the handgrips get hot quickly. Only downside is the maintenance has been more costly than the skidoos we own. Well worth it, in my opinion. As a woman I get a lot of looks from guys on the trail.. "No, this is NOT my man's sled- it's MINE!" LOL As for the vibration... no complaints here! like another reviewer said, after about 1850 rpm- it's pretty much gone. This is my winter hot rod- V8 small block equivalent :) Thanks to all the cry-babies writing reviews- you can get these SOO cheap! Read Full Review
