I took mine out, all I did was get about about a 7 mile ride. Marginal snow conditions. Hard to really get a feel on the rutted up road. Did not want to wheely over or anything like that but accelerated fast. My last yamaha was an apex so the handling felt more typical of a lighter sled. Not sure i am a fan of fox floats, Think I would rather have a good pair of coil overs. Anybody have a opinion let me know, I will have more soon as a little more snow comes.
