Stabil is a little easier to use but seafoam works good to. I would love to find something better. Startron, Stabil, Seafoam are all good products, it's amazing how all my stuff has kept running for the past way to many years using those products Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose its all just logging roads or whatever you can find? I'm not interested in that at all. They quit grooming, and yes some gates are closed, but there are some great goat paths going into some awesome valleys and hills. The wife and I were up there the weekend of the 24th and I found some new stuff that was in deep and it was all good till she stuck her sled, late afternoon, me with the fucked up shoulder with a 125 lb. middle aged woman.....it was time to get the fuck out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sled came with a pre studded track. It's downright scary in those conditions. After experiencing this track I would never put one on a sled. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One good stuck that has me lifting and digging and getting pissed could easily cause me a months pain with my back.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted April 10, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) Rivers can be fun without studs.

Wildboer Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 1 hour ago, AKIQPilot said: How many sleds with prestudded tracks do you own. I currently own 2 and have had 6 over the years. The pre studded tracks are better than no studs but they are no where even close to a conventionally studded track. That is a fact. If anything I just forget what real studs are like because we've been running Icerippers for 10 years now. I replaced a beat up 1" lug 96 stud track for a 1.25" Ice Ripper on my 03 Rev and my family hasn't traditionally studded a track since. 1 hour ago, Skidooski said: Drag racing on ice with trail studs isn't really drag racing. It's snow cone making No shit. 1 hour ago, Rigid1 said: he tours Old Forge in NY. Even the locals dont ride there, its tourist town for rich peeps from Nj to come to go "ski dooing". They have 24hrs a day grooming and you ride in big circles but have to buy a additional pass to ride their trails.. So fucking gay. We don't ride around the OF trail system ya dunce a typical ride is a 150+ mile loop to other areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev144 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Ice ripper is a decent ladies track at least in our area. Where the gals don't care about any type of corner to corner or punching it. Just for improved stopping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine they are fine for breaking only they get you going on ice but certainly not the same way studded will. they help keep you straight on iced up logging roads. they don't get destroyed when riding over trees and rocks off trail. I rode one 5k miles and liked it better on trail 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, they give you just enough mentally to get over confident, and think you get some grip, and then it,s only a matter of time, for those, OH FUCK, moments. Great market, but totally useless for stopping, or trying to move on ice or hardpack quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
