Looking at Camoplast Tatou 4S tracks for my Commander XT however $5K after taxes is perhaps a wee bit too much. A wee bit. Probably have to wait another year.....or two.
I wondered about that but this Polaris is a 800x2 I also wondered if it put an extra strain on the front bearings and joints i not really sure about a Polaris though will take a look soon
Attended the Harrisburg show last weekend, son and I saw the most beautiful Polaris four place with all bells and whistles AND tracks !! Only $30,000. -- Every outdoor nut like myself should have one, guess I'll have to pass, why, my retirement check is a wee bit slim for one !! JTP
Never thought about the float factor. I have a Yamaha 660 Grizzly single cylinder liquid cooled, which I think would push the tracks. However for the price I am considering a set of bigfoot tires, say 27"-29" for the deeper snow conditions. Anyone with experience with the lager tires? I'd do the tracks in a heart beat if they didn't cost 5k. There was an old timer in my neighborhood that would put 60lbs of air in his stock 25" tires ballooning them up huge. Looked wild, I'd only be afraid to pop them. He did it gradually on a hot sunny summer day. That would solve the sink factor!
I would love to have tracks someday, but the cost keeps me away.
The following info was told to me by others & I don't own a set of tracks. Tracks are the ultimate setup on any of the higher cc ATV's & UTV's, if you can afford them. They will allow the machine to go almost anywhere you want to take it. They do make the machine harder to steer, but I've heard the electric power steering in the newer machines helps a bunch. I've heard mixed reviews on the added strain they put on the front-end. One guy told me that he put them on his Polaris Razr last winter and within 4 months all the wheel bearings were trashed. Another guy told me he's had them on his Grizzly 700 for four years now with no problems & that keeping the tracks properly adjusted is the key to longevity & not wearing parts out. I would love to have tracks someday, but the cost keeps me away.
I considered Camoplast, until I looked at the online reviews. Google them.
I have read the reviews. I've also test rode them on a commander xt 1000 like mine and was amazed. Please help me out with your skepticism. I am having a tough time finding bad press and am very interested in finding out what you know. Have any links??? Thanks
