This is subjective, but the XXC 1000 often feels "faster" to traditionalists. Without the added weight of disc rotors and heavy hydraulic hoses, the 1000 models were incredibly snappy. They had that razor-sharp "climb anything" feel. The 2018 models are stiffer and more stable—better for descending and sprinting, but they carry a slight weight penalty due to the disc brake infrastructure. xxc 1000 v xxc 2018
Both the 2018 model and the current versions utilize the legendary 976cc Rotax V-Twin. The 2018 model boasts a staggering 89 hp. | Feature | XXC 1000 | XXC 2018
