judging by the supply of them this late in the year, its going to take something more than new decals and a 129 RIOT to make a splash.
3" tracks in more lengths and models would be a good start. 3" rubber is nice to have, but no so much the length they offer.
Problem is the commitment Polaris has to make to CAMSO to kick out shorter 3" tracks.
I think the biggest improvement now to my lowered RIOT would be more traction. With only one track manufacturer out there, no after market options. And, Polaris has not led the way in track design in recent times, I think there are better track designs for our bikes/Timber Sleds out there right now, just not a big enough market to tool up to make them.

So do you think a 129 length RIOT would help the traction issue without taking away the playfulness factor....or are you thinking a 120 length 3" paddle for the RIOT?
I love my lowered ARO 3...but really like the way a RIOT has way less ski pressure, and feels more like a dirt bike. The RIOT I rode just gets in more trouble and stuck easier than my ARO 3...which I didn't like.

I would snow check a 3 inch 120. I would rather have a 3 inch 123 or 124. I will not be snow checking a riot 129 Unless it is a 3 inch.
a 3" 120 track would make a great ride, Riot or Aro. The way I run my RIOT, not much difference in suspension between the ARO and RIOT.

How about 25% less rolling resistance!

Awesome. Makes sense. Polaris already had the track in that size. Probably really cost efficient for them. I would’ve liked to see something in between but I will probably be snow checking A Riot 3”. Now…just need to figure out if I should go with the S or not.
I'll be taking a serious look at the Riot 3 and 3S in a 129. It might be enough to put me back on a TS, demo anyone?

well I'm now torn.....originally I wanted to go Aro 129 3S and now with the Riot 129 3S I'm not sure which way to go.
Anyone know how much more the 3 inch track is going to weigh? Also has anyone compared side by side with the older track to see where exactly a 3 inch performes better? Wondering if the extra weight and grip of a 3 inch is actually worse in some conditions because bikes dont make a lot of power.
