I have a set on my 99 Formula Deluxe and loved them, might trade them onto my '15 MXz 800 ... Thanks, They must work good on the Formula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im really considering one of these this year but i do not know anyone who has one so i can try it. I have always had regular studs so I'm hesitant to change but want to change if you know what i mean. I can only assume the the rotating mass is way less than a studded track so that can only help with some speed LOL. Just do not want to regret it if i do not like it at all.

The biggest thing that people like about them is you dont wreck a track when you rip out a stud. When a stud come out you dont have to worry about them wrecking your heat exchangers. I do find people liking the Ice attack XT better then the Ice ripper. I have installed 6 Ice attack XT's and they all like them better then the ripsaw with studs. I think it is worth trying because if you dont like it then you will have no problem selling it. If you are running a ripsaw with a 1.25 lug I recommand trying a Ice Attack XT with a 1.375 lug. I had no experience with pre studded tracks until this year. I am not totally unhappy with the Ice Ripper that came on my Blizzard. It will get me up icy hills and safely across icy lakes when I take it easy, which is primarily why I want studs. As Mike said, the Ice Attack XT seems to hook up significantly better than the Ice Ripper that is on my sled. For the last trip I took this month, two of the other sleds were larger 4 strokes with short tracks - an Apex and a TNT 1200 - shorter tracks with way more power, but they offered better traction than my sled at the same speed on the same trail. I got to try the TNT and couldn't believe the difference. Admittedly, these two sleds were also set up better than mine as they had honed their handling over years, not a week. If replacing a track, I would get an Ice Attack, or if it was available as an option I would spring for it. I don't think that I would select another sled that came with an 1.25 Ice Ripper (or TS skis). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
