Go with the X. I think it is the perfect skid. It was everything I had hoped it would be and more.

I really want to go X but want to make sure its the right decision i rode a blade with M-10 and it was a sweet ride but dont want the speed loss and know the angles in suspension arentr at the right angle

I have the 136 m10, I would go x next time, way to hard to adjust in.

Not exact weight on the X, but you'll swear the sled is 100 lbs. lighter, out-of the hole.
Come on DaveyBoy! Snow is falling, and you still don't have your mind made up yet! LOL
Trust me on this. Go with the 136" X. The transfer adjustment and tunability of this skid is AWESOME! As far as ride quality: So far it's pretty good. (still tuning) It's easy to install by yourself too. I proved this by removing it this weekend. You can get this thing in and out of the track so fast, it'll blow your mind.
As for studding. I went with 162 (3/belt) up the middle (Woody's long-track template). So far so good. But one thing you ABSOLUTELY MUST DO! Install 1/4" X 1" alum. strips over the existing strips on front cooler and the tunnel. I had clearance but you can run the track so loose on this skid that it will balloon and scratch the cooler and exhaust heat shield - and that's just from straight-line acceleration runs. Haven't had a chance to test the top-end yet, but me likes what me sees!

Finally, some feed back on studs. I've been looking around and can't find much advice about studding the 136. Thats why I wanted to hear it from the guys who have done it. Any reason for not putting studs on the outside? As for the tunnel protection, I planned on doing as much as possible. I'm doing the job at my buddies house. He builds and races super mods so he'll be able to fabricate anything I need.

I also studded up the middle but went with a 2-4-2-4 pattern. I added the extra strip to the tunnel protectors right off the bat too. This setup works great. Studding the outside of the track is were you would experience more tear outs. Also, the sled will push more with the 136 track.

I studded all 3 belts, and yes it does tend to push; and yes you do need to be careful (espescially rocks, road crossings, etc.), but not any more than any other sled I've owned.
On the other hand, it has mega hook-up. To me, it's worth it.
