thanks for the replies thus far. had a scenario last season where I was barely in control as per the norm and had to make a quick decision to avoid a tree that clearly wasn’t there before. had no choice but to turn right and up a brief but steep and deep incline that was essentially convex. i remember wondering where the fellas were because I was going go to need help with the inevitable deep trench stuck. instead, a little more throttle and the sled just climbed out with some slight sidehilling with authority. ‘twas my second time on the G5 and the first real introduction to the improvement.

I would avoid setting up the bluetooth to the gauge. Every time the sled starts the music app automatically starts to play, even with the phone plugged in and charging, it will not keep up with the battery drain of the music player. If you have helmet speakers than thats a different story, but thats my experience with the gauge. If you have a tough time with the cord connecting to the app, try a different cord.

Now thats a THOUGHT worth considering!!
Might be worth ordering a new certified CABLE just for the sled.
I wonder if 12 inches is enough?

From all the reviews I’ve seen…..the Lynx is a heavy trenching pig of a sled. Everyone I know that had one last year got rid of it for this year. I hope your experience with it is more positive than the guy’s I know.
You shouldn't say this stuff out loud. People don't like to hear that after spending a half a fortune. The 2 coolest things about them are the ride and the motor. I sold mine to a buddy and i warned him before he wrote the check. He was coming off a mountain max and a turbo nytro so guessing he will be in love.From all the reviews I’ve seen…..the Lynx is a heavy trenching pig of a sled.

Slowly working my way through the breakin.
Think I am about 25% of the way there.
Still loving her.

Given the amazing sleds that are now on the market, RIDE THE SLED THE FEELS BEST TO YOU.
What options are you putting on this sled? Asking for some friends.Wrote the check for a 2nd one today!

The mistake people made is that many bought the RE when they should have gone with DS. And Lynx should have the same 16" track that Expert has as its heavier and needs more flotation.
Maybe an 18 wide for re.
