We have mostly flat land and deep snow here in finland so 3" is more fun! Climbs good enough for the hills we have

It deffinately helped my choice.. in about 2 weeks time I am going to be snow checking a 850 khaos with the 2.6 track and belt drive...

Great information, I would definitely not know the different characteristics of the two tracks and certainly didn't know only chain case w the 3". Love the videos!

Thanks Chris. It's a neat way of looking at it. I have a different opinion of what works for me. But.....I've never been called the G.O.A.T. either.

Awesome. Now does chris still feel the same way after 4 years?

You know, ive been thinking the same thing. I put a 3” on my xm, and I think it makes it trench out more than the stock 2.5”. It actually seems to be hindering it in a drag race uphill, as it doesn’t launch worth a can of beans, just sits there digging a hole to china, meanwhile the other guy is long gone. Ive been thinking I might just go back to the stock track 163 X 2.5” and try that.

I know I've asked you this question before on instagram lol. I"m ok with the 2.6" on my axys. As of this season, I've got a few lugs that are torn off or broken and I'll be looking for a different track for next season. Have you looked at the Camso Conquer 280? This is what I'm thinking about getting. Price is good, I'll have to switch to 3.5 pitch drivers.

There is something magical about how the poo 2.6 floats, and hooks up. When I first road my axys 163x2.6, it surprised me and shot up a steep drainage wall, that my pro would have had to sidehill out. Now sure the axys has the taller chassis, and more power, but I really doubt the 2.4 the pro had, put on an axys would have made it!

I dunno I road a 2018 m800 153 with 3 inch and seemed like it got up on top better then my 2014 m800 162 2.6 snow pro maybe had to do with the the newer clutch in it or maybe it's track length I dunno just what I found.. just hear 3 inch paddles get ripped off more often cause of the trails in and out

I’m on an SKS 800 and I feel the same way. Good video

As soon as Polaris makes the belt drive with 3 inch that will miraculously be the best...

Can you update this opinion and compare 2.75 to 3” belt drive (2022/2023) sleds

Your kind of riding is not like 95% of riders out there, I'll take the three inch thanks , The B.C. snow requires it.

Hey Chris, Im coming down to keystone colorado and was wondering whats a great place to ride near there and what a great place to rent near there .... im a extreme adrenaline junky when it comes to motocross and snowmobiling and i was wanting to know your thoughts for a great experience in keystone !!! Thank you so much !!! Hopefully were could ride sometime im down there

I've been thinking about switching, don't know yet. I'm a Skidoo man but i'm thinking about switching to Polaris, can you give me more influence on the Polaris, verses the summit? I know that they say Polaris is King of the hill, but it is true? I like both, just thinking? Motortafied??????

Hi i have 3 inch lugs can i cut them to 2.6 or no

Chris, I herd u say somewhere that u liked the 3 inch at griz lodge.

I havent ridden a 2.6 but my 3 inch doesn't seem to be a problem with wheeling but i also have a ski doo that might have some thing to do with it

Perfect video! I think great video will be also about Boondocker Turbo.

A kid I grew up with (Rob Heiner) designed and built a tensioner device for the belt drive on the Polaris models. They did this because he and his brother like the big track, running turbo, with the belt drive system. Normally the turbo makes the belt drive slip so everyone (at least out here in western wyoming) runs the chaincase to compensate for this. These boys are always tinkering and trying to make things better and that's what he came up with. There's an outfit out of Utah that sells it for him, but couldn't tell you their name off the top of my head. Anyways, the whole point I'm making is that just because you want one thing (the bigger track) and it means you have to have something else with it from the factory (chaincase), doesn't mean you can't find a way to change it to what you want AND make it work. Where there's a will, there's a way.

Could you do a video on aftermarket tracks and how they might be even better than the 2.6"?

I use 3 inch in BC

If you have a sled with 3 and want to change to 2.6 do you need to change the gearing or the clutches?

Did the 3" track (was convinced by a couple who owned them in the past) and dont get me wrong its an epic sled (850 pro 163") but it does trench quite a bit more. Wish you made this video in march of last season 😂😂 have you ever ran that tki belt system and if so do you like it? Thanks in advance! 😎🤘

Thanks Chris. Have you guys seen premature wear on your tracks and do you think it is necessary to fully clip? I am curious if this is something i should consider doing.

Hi

And if you don't have a whole building full of extra sleds when they break...........buy a SKIDOO!!

Sir I want to talk to you

do you ride a rmk with a 36in wide ski stance and why

Could you use belt drive even with a trail sled?

How many sleds do you blow up a year and how many hours do you usually get with a nornal tubro with lo boost and high boost and stock

What can on your sleds do you run ???

I am a 2.6 inch guy

3 inch burns a lot more gear than 2.6

lol i run a 1.75 lug on a 128 in 3ft+ of snow and never had an issue

Bigger is always better. That's what she said!

Well I got a new sled today and it has a 3 1/4

"it gets up on the snow easier"- Why Chris? why does it get up on the snow easier?

I live in Russia I roost a 5 inch lug on a 275 track. We slay fish and feed the village ehh

First

Too short

Hard no

3” tracks are terrible. 2.5/2.6 is way better
