Cool. I wish I was there.

 

TLC, have you ever ridin anything with tracks other than sleds?

Its just a case of "different strokes", but really make an effort to try them.

I just dont see the advantages of these heavy exspensive track set ups.



Unlike ATVs, sled are cheap and plentaful to buy used.



I bought this 500cc twin (two person) touring Sled with hand and thumb warmer, it has reverse for easy off loading,comfy 10" travel suspension and a 42"width. It weights 480lb vs 900 lbs with a Sportsman with tracks. It does 70 mph easily while a tracked ATV does 30mph.



The machine was mint and used, cost $1500 Canadian funds (Cheaper in the states I bet) while used ATV tracks cost $2500 here. Your ATV does not have to take the CV joint beating turning these big heavy tracks all winter but stays stored unused instead without changing wheels to tracks every year.



The Icing on the cake is a sled is $100 less to insure than a ATV up here. $150 vs $250,and is allowed on groomed trails.

TLC if you have a look at the attached site and look at photo 10, it will be apparent why I chose to buy tracks. Maybe not for everyone but it works for me.

I was told the track set up was almost impossible to get stuck compared to a sled ,nice country for sure.
