T3 tracks do too

60 km not miles, keeps track cooler


Think of a 30 inch quad tire at 60 mph, it balloons 3 inches bigger, track lugs are trying to fly off, and g4 use 6 tooth drivers which is a super tight turn
60km/hr yikes

Is this in the manual or something?

Well there are trails with hard packed snow on the way to mountain up and down we cant get dropped off ontop of the mountain most mountains have a 10-30 km trail up to the mountain then back down. My sled was geared down to help reduce belt popping and i usually taker easy on the trail. Mine lasted 1300kms wifes 16 t3 which she rides around sask and mountains has 2000kms and she rides like a demon on the hard packed no issues on her track
Got to heli in and out.

i wrote some emails to brp and got no where my dealer fought for me and got not were got discounted price on a new track went to a 2.5 but i picked up a leftover 2020 and it has the 3 again so hope this one lasts longer


Mine track spit first lug on center lug, no damage on rest of track or anywhere around that center lugg,so found it kinda weird just that one lug would have got damaged like brp said.

Did BRP replace or just ask for CC for payment?

I will never understand this. Every time I’m in a parking lot I just shake my head when I hear brappp brapppp brapppppppp on offf on off on offf bull**** and full pin out of the parking lot spin spin spin spinning up the trail and then repeat over and over and over the whole way up the trail lol I’ve actually pulled up to people after they have done this and you should see the looks I get when I say something to them about how they ride there sleds but honestly it happens ALL the time. These sleds are fuel injected and a nice steady throttle is actually WAYYY better then this on off full pin team GGB bullshat

Just enough snow to keep the sliders wet.

if you ride in powder and dont bounce off rocks and stumps the track will last thousands of miles.
see guys who love the pin n wiggle and will hold it wfo for 40 seconds to get out of a jam instead of a ski tug or shovel, then look at the roost and its full of rocks n sticks..ha.
or peeps who just cant drive a normal speed on the trail. lots of stories on the forums of who sled is faster on top end and racing across the lake. these tracks can not handle sustained speeds over 50mph unless in powder
