Ive only got 64 miles on my sled and was jumping off of things i would never attempt on my old viper... But i didnt get to ride it on groomed trails that have those nasty STUDDER bumps i hate so much (aka back killers)
So tell me how it does on the Studders!!

The M10 is slightly plusher. The stock warrior when adjust to fit you is a better ride for the long day rides. It is hard tom explain but it is very comfortable. It is much more stable than the M10 at high speed.

I had my first chance to trail ride it over the weekend. It is very plush and handles bumps really well. I had the fra in the middle, cam adjuster for the rear spring on 5 I believe, and clicker in the middle. It was nice and smooth where I saw my buddies bouncing in front of me. I did bottom out several times so I do have to make some adjustments to stiffen it up on both rear shocks as we didn't hit any big mougles. The front works extremely well too and absorbs everything. 8)

The ride on my Warrior is probably the best thing about the sled. It's not a REV, but took some really hard hits (waterbars, mudholes) to a stock setting this weekend and only bottomed out a few times. People ahead of me on Firecat and '03 Renegade seemed to be bouncing a lot more.
Will see as the trails turn hard, icy and bumpy.

If it does'nt bottom out once and a while the skid is not working to its full extent.

I just got back from tonights ride, and now have 520 miles on the Warrior. It is night and day better than my 02 Viper in the stutters. We don't have enough snow yet in the UP to try it on some good size moguls, but the bigger holes I did hit, it ate up very well. So far all I've done is pull in the limiter straps, and open up the transfer rods. I've also added some bar hooks because you do have to lean on this sled, even with the 03 improvments, it's still prone to inside ski lift. On the trail to Big Bay, a very tight twisty trail, the front end pushes and I get the inside ski lifiting. The Viper handles better in this area, but for straight line stability, ride and sweepers like trail eight in Munising, the Warrior is hands down a better ride. My wife is complaining that I am riding much faster this year. My boy inherited the Viper and we swithched off going to Grand Marais and I couldn't wait to get back onto the Warrior. I have had to tighten the track 3 times so far due to ratcheting, I think its done stretching now. The other thing I have really noticed is how much quieter this sled is at speed, mostly wind noise in the helmet. Great brakes, great headlight, when we get more snow I've got a set of 6 inch Stud Boy "Sharper" bars to try. I think this will help reduce the push. Over-all I'm very pleased with the Warrior. Time now for an oil change!

Ive got 185 miles on my 04 L.E. warrior around burgland mi.lake geobic.the trails were perfect. the one thing that was very different was the let off at high speed. must slow down befor getting off the gas. or you might go over the bars. like hitting the brakes with studs. love my warrior!
