SVT MXZ XRS Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 13 hours ago, Zambroski said: I guess it depends on what sled and balance you want. Not sure how a 137 would react with. 1.5 on it in the corners. I’m gonna prolly have to find out though. 137’s are what everyone is going to....sadly. Definitely way more work in the twisties than a shorter track. I don't see them doing away with 129s (and shorter) as short tracks. There's still a lot more people that don't give 2 shits about going off trail for them to make a 137s the shortest available. 13 hours ago, Sal Rosenberg said: My 137 with a 1 3/4 back country x isn't really ideal in the tighter stuff. Def slower and a lot more work than a 128 / 9 1 1/4 And if you do the majority of your riding on trail vs off, the extra length and lug height isn't worth what you give up in handling. Why I'm going down to a 129" fir my next sled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rode the Indy 129 back to back with my assault and both the owner and I felt like mine handled better. We were both kind of surprised. The 129 was definitely faster tho.

SVT MXZ XRS Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 No way a 144" is better than a 129" in tighter twisty trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know about the poos, but the doos are geared lower in the 137. 25 to 27 on the top gear in the chaincase is about 5-6 mph more on top.

Several factors on what gears they use. Engine, track lug height, length, and what model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some carbides and some spring and shock adjustments fixed that. Fucking fib noobs smh. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVT MXZ XRS Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Still a ton of base up in the UP. Problem is getting into towns for fuel and food. Down to bare concrete. And the long term forecast isn't calling for any significant amount of snow and temps are climbing again. Unless they get a major dumping, I'm done Maybe they'll get another April storm, but not looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Rosenberg Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I dunno. Maybe I should swap out the stock cat carbides with over 3600 miles on them and see if the front will stick when I plant it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 Done for the year. Took the Viper on what will most likely be it's last ride with me on Saturday. I'm really going to miss that sled when it goes down the road to a better home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
