I realize that this isn't that accurate but I put 77.5 MILES on about the top 5 bars on the fuel guage. If the guage is linear like the RX-1 that equates to 18.5 miles per canadian gallon. This was reasonable speed trail breaking, not to mention breaking in the engine.
What a radical difference in ride, apparent weight, seating position and surprisingly a low CG for a high seating position sled as compared to my RX-1. Now if it just had the same power....

Gypsy, we put 2" track under the venture and it fit perfectly,no need to change drivers,and I believe you can put 16 wide in there,,,if you haven't done already.

I am keeping the sled stock for now, the 144x15x1.25 track is actually a perfect track for me out here. There is enough floatation for trips upriver where there is snow...and I don't ruin the paddles running it in the hard pack and ice of where I live. Right now all this sno-go is going to get is a lot gas for a lot of miles. Probably turbo it in a couple of years...
Oh! Yeah! 16 will go right in there, as in the Canadian Venture MP, but check with Topper, that half inch of extra track may be the difference between a good track and one frayed by rubbing on the EXCESSIVE amount of ICE that acumulates on the tunnel, around the exhaust.
