Most of the stuff I want to do will take years. I was also thinking about vforce reeds. BUT I am 14 and my parents said if they got me the sled I would have to pay to fix it and anything else I wanted. So some stuff will take time to get the money

dont get Vforce reeds unless you need to reeds(which you wont). you wont notice a difference with them and there are better things to spend your money on.

get the track first.

Ok thanks! Will the track affect my on trail going with a 1.75? And how about studs?

[XXROBBOBXX]

are you riding hard packed trails?? it will hook up really well on trails either way. and some people stud them but i wouldnt with that track but thats just me.

but yes some runs 1.87 studs in them. i have no knowledge or experience with studding that track though

[SkiDooRider1222]

All sleds iv ever owned were studded. So I don't know how thy are without. But depending on where you live. I live in Maine and we got hammered with snow but then lost it. One day we had over 3 ft on the lake but usually there is about 2-3 in the drifts. Trails usually arnt very hard. Will the 1.75 slow me down on trail?

[XXROBBOBXX]

no it wont slow you down at all for trail riding. and i would say you dont need stud for trail riding in Maine.

you may notice the extra track noise from the 1.75 but thats normal.

[SkiDooRider1222]

Yup. How about racing snow flaps I tore my stock one up from doing catwalks on my 600. You know anything about snow flaps?

[SkiDooRider1222]

You should have ordered the BCX 800. Comes with 1.75" track, narrower ski stance and wider skis.

[BARK-A-LOUNGER]

Ah hum........the 1.75 will reduce top speed and studding that track will slow you even more. I live an ride in Maine and have ridden both with an without studs. I never thought I'd run a studded 1.75 but with no control over winter conditions and the ice it brings I had cooling issues without and now with, I have none. I also attribute my addition of studs to a accident that could have been avoided if I had them.
