I have a deluxe and when my factory battery died at 3 months. When it went bad it still shifted normal and drove it back home. Other than battery was done you wouldn't notice when it was running everything was fine

probably is i thought i seen someone post about it on a 700 . i may have just gotten mixed up. didnt these go from full hydraulic to electric at some point for shifting?. or was it hydro- electric with the paddles?

I'd term it electronically controlled hydraulic. AFAIK, nothing in the tranny has ever changed. The paddle shifters just let you choose the gear like the buttons did on the same tranny in the Rincon. And I don't recall anyone saying they shifted funny with a low battery either.

i think it was on facebook page. but i beginning to wonder why i even joined it. or it could of been on the 1000 forum. iv been looking at that one alot recently. cause im thinking of upgrading. would like a talon with mechanical 4wd shifter.like the 500 700 and 1000s. not a fan of what iv seen of the i4wd system. if i was around your area. probably like it more.

Wish they would at least offer a base model with good old mechanical diff lock.
