3" Flex-Edge for the 2013 Ski-Doo.... WHO WANTS IT!!!!??????

[Circled-Mistake]

Just wondering.... Ive had lots of people tell me to go right up to the 3" track with the "T-Motion" Skid..... BUT you lose the Flex Edge..... Anyone hear or know of any possible interest in a 3" Flex-Edge for the 2013???? OR even possible Prototypes out there???

Ive also been told to take a zip-cut and hack the first 2" on each side of the 3" to "make you own" Flex edge.....

Seems kinda silly to get the sled, get used to the Flex Edge, then in a couple months (Or even the next season) get the 3" and lose the Flex-Edge, and learn the characteristics of the sled all over again.....

Just curious is all...... Ill probably wait a year and see what the Stock Track does..... But the 3" will make it unstoppable (in my eyes)....

ONLY 4 MONTHS AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd try it with the stock track first. That sled will climb like a F-16 with a 2.5 on it and you still get the manuevrability that the T motion package was designed for.

The flex-edge sounds really good on paper but I'm curious who the first person(s) will be who rip that track open on a rock/stump etc. I wonder how much weaker it is because of the flexibility? Time will tell. Still looking forward to seeing them in action this season!

The new track will climb better than the demo tracks and have more durability. No doom and gloom here boys! Lol.

ya should be all good but remember in 07 the rev had the option for the challenger track and I bought used so I got that track,, it was like a chain saw hahahha but it sure looked mean and worked great on hard pack


but I am sure we are fine this time fingers, toes and arms crossed hahah just kidding

 

[Trashy]

3" track blows keep the flex edge. 3" track is fun but we destroyed all 3 of ours this year so its not worth the coin and pain in the butt changing it out every year. Its not THAT good or else I may consider it. Don't worry about durabilty with the flex edge. Hasn't been a problem for the test riders and those were only prototypes.

Good to know Maxwell Thanks...... Just about had a salesman convince me into it...

If you spend the 4000 and get the extended chain case......it may be more successful...

Dammitt I thought I got out... LOL

Sleds aren't even here yet and the doo faithful are already worried about busting tracks and climbing abilities and wanting to spend an extra ton of coin on a 3"..... Hehehehehehehe I love it. I just hope you don't end up with a "XM issues and concerns" thread as long as our proclimbs thread was.... I'd almost feel bad for ya's! Haha

not to worry. since 2008 brp has a much better testing program to limit issues like the release of the xp in 2008. and the proclimbs faceplant in 2011. i see zero issues with the new xm other than the odd thing here and there that is to be expected from any 2 stroke performance machine. its based on the proven xp and etec platform so it isnt ground up new.

that came out sounding something like hamburger Maxwell!!!!!

I really wonder how long that t-motion is gonna hold up. It would suck to snap that way back somewhere.

 

[maxwell]

Its very beefy and doesn't move as much as you would think.

there is over 2000km on the demo that i took out for 2 times this summer (super hard packed) and t-motion is working great and the track is mint also. i don't get why someone would even be worried these sleds been tested by the best riders around in sicamouse and revy for a full season and these guys ride hard! and 3 year bumper to bumper warranty so it don't matter if you brake something as long as you are nice to your dealer then they will take care off you or charge you money if your a freak show.

check out mine and jon jeans videos to see how they handle in hard pack and we had to ride a bit of rock, no damage.

no need for it unless you run a turbo and this new 154 outclimbs my 2011 163 so even if you put a 3inch i think the new stock track would get you higher because its glued to the snow all the time
