Changed my mind. Snow flaps aren't even tight and they are just extra weight and a hassle for the one time I use reverse when I ride (off the trailer if I didn't already ride off the front). So I'm just gunna remove mine completely and save my self the trouble. Plus it will be really funny when I pass people on the trail and spray everybody with rock hard snow/ice chunks. I think by doing this I will make lots of new riding buddies. And as far as over heating goes, I don't even care. Thats why BRP put sensors in the motors.
