The nice thing for me is the transition from standing to sitting is so easy you can stand up when it gets really rough without any problems. That really helps my back out at the end of the day.

Guys, I only was allowed to demo the sled for about 45mins... So this is why I'm asking. Yamadog, the way you were riding is how my buddies and I ride...but if it gets rough my SRX and my body takes a good beating. This is why I'm upgrading!

Yup they were shot a lot of it was 1-1/2' chop it just mows them over. I do have different shocks in mine though. That bridge crossing coming back I took at 75 and it is elevated the sled probably did not touch down for 20 to 30 feet.
I am 53 with 2 blown discs, 1 bad knee and both hips need replaced. I can easily do 300 mile days if my buddies would keep up. I go 5 or so miles and wait

Wow is all I gotta say! 53 and still goin strong. My dad is 57 and had his hip replacEd a couple years ago, has to have the other one done soon. He used to ride enduros and sleds and thinks that is the cause...I got him out for a ride last year, let him take my SRX and I rode the 340 enticer...he wanted to switch 5 mins in because the enticer has the higher windshield. My enticer took a good beating that day.Yup they were shot a lot of it was 1-1/2' chop it just mows them over. I do have different shocks in mine though.

What kind of shocks do you have? Never mind, just saw your signature

Yamadog, those trails weren't that bumpy. Come to New York and see what real bumps are. Last week breaking in the sled was 2 to 3 footers everywhere you went. Even with those bumps, with the right suspension it's still a lot of fun.

I watched the Xgames and snowcross today and told the girlfriend that course looked like Vail Pass before the groomer comes along......................
