Snow Pro or No Snow pro?

[gettis]

I am planning on trading my 2010 M8 LE 153" off on a new 2011. This always seems to be the best deal to trade every year with my dealer versus every second or third.

I love everything about my sled except the suspension. Every other brand ride better than mine and the trails on the mountain beat the life out of me and my knees. I have had 2 snow pros now.....a 2008 M8 and my 2010 with the front fox floats upgraded to "float 2's" and the Chris Burandt rear skid upgrade and have just not been satisfied. I am considering buying the basic 2011 M8 model with the coil over springs on the skid and front end. Anyone out there rode both types and now if one is better than the other on the trail mougals? I am 280 lbs and 6'4" so I may be more of a challenge to set up for....

Thanks, Shaun

Kinda OT, but let me know what they offer you for your '10 on trade in. I'm in Saskatoon and I'll be looking to buy a '10 M8 very soon.

I just got 09 M1000 sno pro at the begining of the season . My old ride is an 07 M8 Std model . And the Fox Zero Pro shocks on the 07 ride way better in the big bumps. The Floats dont soak it up like the coil overs , but they are lighter. The sno pro steering post is a must have in my book.


My ultimate sled would be an HCR M1000 with the M ski stance , and the 162 PC not the HCR version. And then of course add boost .

They are offering me $9500 so I would need $10,500 to make up for the taxes. I deal at Kutcher Bros in Findlater, SK Mine is the All Black Model with 750 miles on it.

Thanks for the info. I will definatly upgrade my steering post and I think that is the only snow pro option I really care about..........
