Its a more settled and comfortable ride. The shorties can get squirrely if you dont stud them good and arent as planted on the trail. I feel you can ride faster on the longer track because it is that much more settled. Acceleration is better, gaps bumps better and handles better IMO. As far as the quicker handling of the short tracks I feel its too minimal to warrant. Now if you are a ditch banger or SX then the short track may have some advantage, I am just not in that demo any longer. 

I always thought my 121 xcr accelerated and handled very well, and rode fairly decent all things considered. I’m not sure I’d want anything longer then a 121 in that specific sled.

The r motion on my XRS is fantastic though and I find that the pro 40s are also very good. I think I have it dialed in pretty well. Limiter strap on hole 1, fts lightly compressed, and rebound set to 5 of like 30 on both front and rear track shocks :lol: 

rear torsions on 2 of 5. Couplers on 2. Sag is perfect. It hooks and rides really well

Yours did but if you rode it back to back with a switchback you'd know what I meant. I have with the pro s and switchback. It's very noticeable.

the Axys front, specifically the xcr is superior to the RAS 3 on the G4. It cornered flatter and felt more confident in nearly all conditions with the same bergstrom shim/7.5 shaper setup. The RAS 3 is good though. With pilot 5.7s. I’ve heard bad things about the TS skis on the G4.

r motion wins as far as rear suspension comfort goes. Weight transfer and hook up go to my xcr. 
 

850 etec is slightly better then the poo 800ho, specifically in the midrange. Bottom end feels comparable. The etec is a smoother engine, that’s obvious.

chassis ergos go to the axys but the G4 is also very good, IMO

That's a pro ride and yeah it's a POS. This is an axys sba. It's the Jesus sled.

Can you imagine how bad it would be to have bought a 16 pro ride when the axys came out the following year in that sled? holy fuck :lol: 

Interesting. I’ve always heard that the Indy/assault skid rides nowhere near as good as the jungle gym. :dunno:

For trail shredding the jungle gym is about as good as it gets. But for comfort the Indy and rmotion are more compliant. Sleds with the jungle gym corner really sharp and flat.

It's a pile with a 3000 mile life span...assuming new slugs were added around 1500.  

:lmao:

Cheap investment that will make your rear skid even better.
