What sled is easiest on the back?


Blake G

Recommended Posts

Beautiful sled Blake, you'll love it. Great ride and the air suspension is a nice bonus for bumpier trails when you bottom out on the long rolling power line bumps.

 

Essentially the same ride as a Renegade having the same length skidframe, a tad softer on stutter bumps. 

 

Personally I have that exact same windshield and I wouldn't go taller than that for myself. Unlike IrREVerent, Blake and I are vertically challenged, I find that a nice height to send the bulk of the air past the shoulders up to about chinguard height. I like having some airflow on the helmet to suck moisture out of there .... no electric visor required. 

 

I did find a significant amount of cold air coming past the sides of the waist/hips area on colder morning rides , might be some kind of deflector available to widen the coverage in that area.  Better quality suit might also make a difference too, and since it's buttertart season, you'll prolly gonna need a new suit next fall anyway.... :D

You will love the air suspension no doubt. Every time you hit a bump, you can hear the air compressor charging shock back up again for half a second or so. I can jump off drifts all afternoon, no sore back, soft landing every single time. 3 is my favourite setting. Heated seat is nice too, when riding well pack trails on a cold day. I learned too, turn it off when riding fresh powder :-).

If you like to fiddle you will like the TPS ski's. If not you may want to change them out to pilot ski, like some owners are doing.

VR -- FYI, Enduros don't come standard with a heated seat, although a kit is available as an option.

It'd look even better with a white background.

You are right, it was an add on like mirrors, high windshield, rack, luggage etc, my mistake.

Our sleds came with heated seats and I thought.... that's for wimps. I'll never use that. I unknowingly hit the switch that turned the seat on low once and thought, wow is this ever nice even though it isn't freezing cold out.
