Love my gen II's on my 07 m1000, Still trying to get the suspension setup right on my 09 to get the goodie out of them, Full throttle the skis don't do much of anything on the 09. If I didn't know what the gen II's where capable of I would have hated them on my 09 but thats due to a crappy stock suspension.
i dont thing any ski you put on it are going to help if you can ride then you cant ride try a diff sport

I ride pros on m1000, they make it turn hard. I left the stock skis on my new M8, set the tow 1/8 out. put the front shock pressure to 90lbs. rear 100lbs. Made it a new sled

Had Gen 11's on my Yamaha, awsome for flotation. Gen 11's can be heavy to steer on the trail all day. Have Slydogs on my Cat this year and so far they work on the trail and in the hills. I like the flotation and they work well on the trail to the riding area. Never did give the stockers a chance on the cat. Like someone posted before, the suspension set up is key.
I just noticed mm move an old post of mine over here so I will update it. The Gen II rocked on the 07, on the 09 it made it side hill like a skidoo, either can't get it up or your on your face, still work well in deep pow, but you pay a (I think) 8 lb penalty over stock skis. I dont know if it is because of the 2 wheel kit changing the geometry of leaning the sled over or if it is the increase in suspension over all travel (the front of the skid on the 09 drops down farther with better transfer) But with the stock suspension I could not side hill near as good as with stock skis. Its not because I don't have the skill or weight either, I'm 6'6" and 210lbs and capable. My gen II have seen a better day as well they are kinda warped from to much of a beating. I do prefer them on the trail to. the don't catch the edge like the gen I and have great cornering, they also flex and absorb the bumps a lot better than stock ski. Also probably the best ski for staying out of tree wells. I had holz revalve my suspension and throw in a dual front skid spring and it responds much better sidehilling and on the trail so maybe I will give them a shot on a pow day. I am leaning toward the HCR ski for its light weight and just enough more keel and width to make the right difference.

This is totally effed up!!! I started this thread almost a year ago. Asking about skis. Now they have moved it and put a title above my first post about some wheels for sale What the he!! is going on??? This thread does not even make sense anymore. Why not just delete it? And why are mods looking back at threads that are a year old and did not have any new posts in it? Nothing better to do???
