And why does everyone think Cats only claim to racing success is Tucker and SX? Silly, silly men.

Anler Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 That srx was highly acclaimed for it's trail manners with that iact shock package. I'm surprised to be hearing this. I've ridden some procross and honestly they ride and handle really good. Especially with the qs3's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've ridden some procross and honestly they ride and handle really good. Especially with the qs3's. It’s handles great, thats not my complaint. The ride quality is garbage. You feel every bump through your hands from the front and every bump through your body from the rear. If the trail is flat the SRX is flat snooth ane fast. When the bumps get big and if the trail is tight the sled is heavy and unpredictable and can’t be ridden at high speed with confidence. Have any of you guys ridden the munising area? There is a section of trail from Shingleton to the Bear Trap that gets beat up. The section is pretty tight as well. I road that section of trail last year on my doo with no issues under bad conditions. This year i had to run 15 to 20 moh through there as the SRX felt dangerous at higher speeds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those tall spindles and positioning is impressive. My Doo was dialed perfectly to my liking and it was good...real good. But my Cat's can out handle it in the corners. The KYB's on the Doo are better tho...and that helped the Doo a lot. The equalizer in that is the extra weight of the PC frame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Cats have a tendency to stay flat and push (not much) while the doo and poo bite a bit better but will high side on occasion. Overall I think all 3 (4) are very good. I will say the Cat rides by far the stiffest and I've rode many versions. Even more so than my Winder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R-Motion is just plain the best skid going...and has been for years. I don't like the ride of the Poo's at all though. It's like bizarro world. Harsh when they shouldn't be and too compliant when it's not needed. But, I haven't been able to set one up for me so, it's really tough to say what they are capable of. I'm no fan of WE shocks tho. It comes down to rider for all of the sleds now. One that can set one up to handle the best for their skill will shine on the trails. If somebody can't set it up properly, then they can't ride anyway so it doesn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If somebody can't set it up properly, then they can't ride anyway so it doesn't matter. Without question set up is important for the way you want to ride and the conditions you are in. If I'm out ripping it up with the boys I might make subtle changes like stiffening my front a bit. If I'm out for a more leisurely ride I go as soft as I can most all the way around. You should bottom out occasionally on hard hits. I think most people never touch anything on their suspension and don't fully benefit from how good the sled can be. Like I said before I think this is where the Poo and especially the doo shine. They are pretty damn good ride quality no matter how they are set but handling can be improved with small changes.

I agree the R motion rides best but feel the 48mm rear of the cats suspension is a better suspension when pushing hard. Feels like a well set up MX bike. Strokes through the range and never gets loose. Just my opinion. Most people will choose smooth ride versus hammering ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
