SVT MXZ XRS Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 16 minutes ago, Angry ginger said: ive ridden since 06 without studs 2-3k miles a year most of the years and can count on one hand the number of times i wished i had them. Unfortunately 2 of those times i damaged myself and my sled but riding a mix of off and ontrail the rocks and trees and studs don't mix well at all. 16/17 winters i had the ice cobra and put a bit over 5k on that track and it was really exactly what i wanted for traction just wore like shit Last time I owned a sled without studs was January of '01, first ride on my '01 MXZ 800. After that, I added studs and haven't and won't ride without them ever again. Prior to that I never ran studs, but didn't have anything that had the power and needed them until I got my '01.

Last winter I switched off with a bud who rides an apex. No studs. After about 3 miles I couldn't wait to get off the fucking boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Posted November 1, 2019 Author Share Posted November 1, 2019 Nobody uses studs here. Only had them on a sled once. Most of the season they don’t really help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
