Just thought I would share by build. This is my first Sidewinder. I own a few 850's as well and can say this sled is my all time favorite so far. The ride is amazing, the transfer is amazing and the power is crazy amazing. I went with the 129" for weight transfer. The 137" is a good sled but nothing like the 129" for trail riding. People forget up until a few years ago sleds all had 121" or 120" so the 129" is still a decent amount of track. I cant say enough good things about this sled. I ride 90% trails and this setup just kills it. Also I would like to say the MPS steering kit is down right worth every penny. Night and day difference. If you dont have it then get it. For me it allows me to run a bigger keel ski and not feel it. Its amazing how it really does feel like power steering. Its been years since I had a sled with this kind of power. My last 4 stroke was back in the early Apex years and I had the first year with a supercharger and nitrous on it. This sled is by far way more fun and faster. I did also have the first year of the Z1 but I try to forget that sled. I went through two turbos and a few head gaskets and then finally said Im done with 4 strocks and back to the 2 strokes I went.
