Re: thinking about trading???

the biggest problem with the assaults is the track. if you could put a better track on an assualt they'd be an amazing backcountry machine, but because the paddles are so stiff and condition specific its not a very good all around sled. I'd stay with the 700 if i were in your position.

Re: thinking about trading???

i would buy NOT an assault i here horror stories of the rear suspension falling apart and the front shocks waring out way too fast! read reviews on powersports network (psn).

Re: thinking about trading???

Rode one last year in Valemount. I found it very hard to maneuver. It's too wide for my liking, and the track trenched quite of bit in the powder. My dad's 600 155" would easily outclimb it; however, in Ontario that doesn't matter, and frankly I'm not sure why you're getting anything beyond a 136". JMO
