Gold Member BOHICA Posted February 26, 2018 Gold Member Share Posted February 26, 2018 2 rail suspensions will be beta suspension for feminine males to ride... alpha suspensions will be for dominate males that ride Yamaha or arctic cat.

I see some advantages for mountain guys though. I bet Camso has a new formulated track for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like washout city trying to sidehill. hard to say how stiff the rods are in the track . but yeah if as flexible or breakable as modern fiberglass rods it could get squirmy or fuck it may wrap up the hill and grab more snow and shoot that fucker straight across the hill . I want to try it before dropping the cash . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DriftBusta Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 good lord that purple is hideous. I thought the freerides took the color thing a little far, but they got nothing on this thing. No new motors, or major tech other than the mountain skid, which I'm not sure I see the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just wondering how it will handle, what the tradeoffs will be. It really does seem like a hybrid snowmobile/snowbike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 The shocks both mounted on one side is weird. Why not have them center mounted?? That's a lot of load on a single bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member BOHICA Posted February 26, 2018 Gold Member Share Posted February 26, 2018 I can see skid weight being reduced as well as less resistance as the track will only need to slid along one hyfax and not 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
