    First ride on Viking

    I think the 570 does a pretty good job of busting trail, I wouldn't say its under powered in the deep snow, but it does have a limit, I beleive the key to the bearcat in the deeper snow is the lower clutch engagement, it will just crawl from a start, . As far as pulling really big loads, I...

    First ride on Viking

    I rode the Bearcat 570 all last year and did alot of hunting with it, I thought it did really good in the deeper snow, busting trail, looking for ptarmigan. It seems to me to have a higher center of gravity and alot more responsive to rider inputs than the viking so with that in mind the wife...

    First ride on Viking

    We had a lot of fun that day, I'll have to look into a windshield bag for it. I do like to carry some stuff! The dogs didnt seem to have much trouble pulling the Viking and 2 people, always wonder how they pull so much and just seem to be running along having a great time.

    Thanks, hoping the viking is the way to go, looked at them all this year before buying and it just seemed to be the most bang for the buck. Seems heavy but they all are anymore. We'll check in at the lodge when up that way. Im curious how these ski skins will work out too!
