Anyone dropped from 162 to a 153? Regrets?

[HiWaYman92]

I started out with a 162, and stuck with it because I found no reason to go away from it. It may take a tad more work to squeeze it through the trees behind a 153, but I rode in 2 feet of fresh pow on Wednesday with 6 sleds, from RMK's to M6 and M7, to M1000 153. I destroyed them all on the hill. The only way the other shorter sleds could make it where I went was if they created a packed track to keep their speed up. I continually out-climbed my buddy on the identical sled with a 153. I thought of switching for a second, but then thought that one day there would be a spot where I wished I had the extra track. I decided not to have that regret!

Pay attention AC, you could be famous.

136" is all anybody needs, want's are something else.

They could call it their factory hill climber!

M7 with a Cutler 1000 in a 162. Bought a 153 the next season, set-up the same way. Way more fun, sure it may lack in a straight up climb but those aren't the fun climbs. Tight technical climbs and finding routes through trees to the top is my idea of fun.
And holy track speed boys.....only a T-Nytro at 18lbs makes me smile harder.

Good post

Alot of good info here!

Imo you can't go wrong w/ either 153 or 162.

My friend has a M1000, who just changed to a 162, and he loves it. With the power that sled has, it is easier to keep afloat.

I went from a 141 to 153, and I feel the same way as I am enjoying that, however we both powder ride.

In the spring riding, both tracks would be too much.
