rear skid, ignition timing, Attack 20, low end bog, seat getting waterlogged
My thoughts exactly
I even thought about buying a pro rmk but I think I would rather fix the stupid little thing than be worried about my engine falling apart. I know that I would like the way the pro handles better but everyone I have talked to has or knows some one who replaced there engine last year in there pro. So a new pro climb I am afraid or might just get a hold over. I even asked in the poo turbo section about the engine holding up and not one response if I did that in the cat section I know you all would stand up for the motor.

I like the attack 20 but will add fouling spark plugs every ride when you first started it, side panels falling off every time you jumped it.
I thought about a Poo/Doo but Im not a fan of the dealers up here... My Cat dealer rocks! So I'm stuck making this Phat Bastage of a Cat my own. The aftermarket & Cat will get it all sorted out. I'm going to ride the Piss out of it and haul it back to the dealer in pieces if need be.
whoa..really every one had or heard about a pro motor going boom? must be some crappy dealers for poo there..in our whole state I can document 1 motor going(kinked oil line) last season, and have only heard of a dozen or so others up till now on the forums...now you can say you think the cat is a better motor but you have to give the poo some credit..they have held up damn good to this point in time...
It was a very tough choice for me also...
Fortunately for me at least 1/2 of the people I know (not assuming this is the real life number) have had motor issues on the pro. A few stock, 2 boosted... that sucks.
I can deal with fixing stupid stuff, and having a slightly inferior sled, (doesn't feel that way to me now that we've got it set up) but I CAN NOT deal with losing a motor in the middle of the year.
If the 12 pro is what they claim, maybe this will be an easy choice from now on.
If I could trust the poo motor, I'd buy a pro, simple choice. It's a better sled if it holds up.

never had those problems, no boggers, the seat thing goes for them all, the rear skid could use something but no problems. Flip and straighten the a20 and its still a kick azz track on a m7

From what I have seen on snowest there has about 7 proclimb motors that have gone down and 0 pro 2012 gone down, I was going to buy a new proclimb this year but when the issue of no demo rides came up, that completely scarred me away, It made me think to my self that they where behind on R&d and the spindles looked a little scary also. So I snowchecked a pro and after this being said I hope my motor holds up. At lest I will sleep a little better knowing I have a 4 year engine warranty.
sorry sounded harsh
I can not tell you how many went out. I was just asking dealers and poo riders that I know and I can tell you that from the impression I got they still have a flakey motor . From complete to just top ends and most of them on a stock sled and that scares me and if I buy one its got to be boosted.

Thats why I choose a really good dealer, does the proper break in and fixes AC's F*** up's

There are WAY more than 7 of them I believe.
There are two in CO that I know of that were not mentioned online., I'm sure there are many more.
The reality is though, there's a BIG difference in having a setup issue, and having a motor that simply doesn't hold up.
I've heard of a few 2012 pros going down, but I also think those are basic setup issues as well, not signs of some real issue. Any real issue will show it's head after some miles, not right away.

Ya my motor went down but at no fault of AC simply crappy dealer, according to AC when mine went it was only the second motor to go, and right before that there was some guy on here saying 4 in his group went down in Canada so I'm sure the number has been fluffed up by doo and poo guys!
Hands down I love this sled for the whole 30 miles I've rode it, but with what I've done to mine I'm not concerned about anything, diamond s hood, bikeman can, vent kit and some other ordeals ends and I'm done no need to change anything for the way I ride!

diamond s hood, what did you do for an intake. pics
you still have to take into consideration about the $$$ thing. Its not that its not a good sled but for the money, WTF
they rode it for how many years. They should just take us to demo there mules and we will fix them up in a month instead of 3 years, lol
I still take it over the others, any day
