I don't think the trail sleds with the wide hood will have that issue. prob has a lot to do with guys sidehilling them and putting pressure on the panel. sounds like guy already working on a cnc alloy one. I am sure cat will come out with a steel one over the summer Honestly, I think after the last three shit-ass winters, we should all be glad to see any improvements past BNGs. So, I'll take whatever they are giving us in any shape or form. Damn we really need a big, long, regionally widespread winter next year.

I'f that's what I end up with, I'm gonna tear it down and paint all that florescent green black. That's my turn-off. But yes, that gray is pretty awesome in person.

Anler Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I'm gonna fall check a leftover 17 poo. I've been going flamming over a new xrs but the crazy money and then the more crazy money for all of the accessories just doesn't make sense. This thing comes with just about everything and is $6k cheaper. I'll still prolly spend a couple hunge on some poo bags and I'll stud it. This is probably the top trail weapon anyways... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should PM "x2700" on HCS. He bought last years model (I think) and rides the shit out of it. He's a big mileage trail rider too. A solid-straight up guy too that can ride pretty damn well too.

He put like 2,000 miles on a switchback this year. And he rides like a mad man. He worked at a Doo dealership before this and has ridden etecs for years thru there. He and I both agree these new poos are the shit. The adventure comes with just about everything I would want to add already on it. It's a no brainier.

I just know X2700 has that model so I figured he may be good to bounce questions off of. Sounds like you got it picked though...so, ride on!

It is also a 4 stroke, so you aren't relying on just the snow for cooling. The 2 smokers run warm on hardpack. On 3/19/2017 at 10:39 AM, Zambroski said: That's sexy.

Skip the sno-x sled and spend a bit more to get a XC sled. It'll hold the extra you spend in resale too, or damn close to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exchangers only. First sled I've had to run scratchers on when the trails are tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
