Just snow checked a 163 3" LE , can't wait to ride it! I've been riding a 2013 163 pro for the last 4 years , and would like to know from anyone who made a similar move what differences they noticed most in variable conditions.

i went from a 2012 pro 163 to a 2016 axys 163. The axys is similar in every way, just does it better and easier. You thought sidehilling with a pro was easy... what till you ride you new axys. Its so easy. The biggest thing that i have noticed is it builds your confidence up.. things that you didnt think you could do with the pro, the axys will do it no problem. THe power is much better on the bottom end and a bit stronger on top. The gearing and clutching make the sled feel very "snappy". Thr track hooks up much better and the LED headlights are awesome for night rides.

Im very happy i sold my pro and got the axys. i was only able to log 350 miles on it this year and cant wait to ride it ALL next year!

Clocked over 700 miles on my 2016 163 3". I came off a 2013 155. Loved the 3" this year, amazing sled. You'll be amazed with the power and handling of the new one. Good choice!
