56lbs is very good.

the original 3" camoplast 2ply track was 69lbs
Camso X3 was 60lbs.
Camso lights 2.80" paddle track is 49lbs.

Only a 15", that wont work

Have you considered a powder claw if your open to 15" tracks?

Bnorth · Nov 4, 2019

that is a nice light 3" track. my first 3" camo extreme was well over 65#, oler's 69# sounds right.

These are a cheaper option. tough to find 3" powerclaws and they're pricey when you doo.

Yikes, never realized they were $2200.

I thought with doo this year you could order a heavy duty track?

Any better?

Not a Option in the parts book anymore

Finally got around to taking the stock track off.

Really, but I thought they were advertising that during snowcheck.

I really don't get how you build a ****ty track with the technology these days.

Did you get they heavy duty one or the regular?

Or maybe they just decide to put all heavy duty on this year?

I will be changing my track on my 2017 - G4 with 3" x 165 track to the trusted track that I had on my T3 in 2015. It was a 3" x 163 x 16" wide track, never had any problems with it.
I want to know what I will have to do to get this track under my sled. I want the factory skidoo replacement not an aftermarket track.

I just went the other way I went from a 2016 T3 174 to a g4 track 175 I also went to aftermarket drivers plus the track was clipped. I also installed a k mod , I talked to a lot of guys and it's the way to go for us older guys.

3#'s is a small price to pay if it holds up!

Sounds like your sled spent some time at Mountain Magic.

How are you liking the track???

venom · Dec 17, 2019

Couldn't tell u. Haven't left the garage yet lol. Was planning on making an early trip but just didnt work out. Ended up with the damn plague for a week and still waiting on a few parts to show up. Jan 12-17 and feb 2-10 is booked so far. Can't wait!

I read that someone had tried it out and was pretty pleased with the results. Said that he liked the way it popped up on the snow. Didnt trench but need a few more miles to give it a fair review.

Composite M770R review.

Just spent 4 cold days in sicamous but was well worth it, Snow was deeeep. Most snow I've seen in a while. Overall the track performed very well. Didn't trench and got on top of the snow well. IMO it is just as good as the stock track in the riding conditions we had.
Going back in 3 weeks for 8 days, I'll Report back again.

If it holds up I'll b happy.

CUSO · Jan 20, 2020

Keep us updated. I was thinking of swapping out my G-4 154 for a 165, and this could be a good option.

Ianhcr800 · Nov 14, 2020

How did this track hold up last season? Have one sitting in my shop waiting to be put on. Very little reviews on this track.
