What is the difference in ride between 137 & 141 Sidewinder

[uofm]

I ride about 70% trail, 25% off trail, 5% lake. The negative i see is the 137 only comes with a 1.25 inch track. This does not seem like enough lug for the power. I know just change the track out. I would rather it just came with the deeper lugged track. I see there was an LTX SE 137 that came with a 1.75 inch lug. Does any dealer in Michigan have one of these?

Now back to the ride. The dealer told me the 137 will ride a lot softer and smoother. That is what i would prefer. I am to old to bang the moguls anymore. But with the 141 with the 1.6 inch lug, how much rougher does it ride than the 137? Help an old guy out to make a decision to spend a lot of money.

The LTX is a coupled suspension. The 141 (xtx) is uncoupled and will transfer allot more and have your skis in the sky.

I'm in my 50's and I ride a 141 ....rides good enough to do a few hundred miles a day and do it again the next day .My 25 year old son rides a 137 and it is better but I don't find it that much better that I would give up the better floatation and grip

The 137 and 141 are basically the same flotation it's only 2inches on the ground that's not even 1 lug more on the ground if you ride trails mostly go with the 137 if you find an xtx 137le it has a 1.75 track not sure if anyone has one start calling around they are selling quick!!!
