Well to start off im new here hi everybody upstate ny. I have been a loyal ski doo owner for years now and its time to move on. Bombardier hasnt made a product that has not broke in my family between boats and sleds. I ride everything i can get my track on around here from tryin to find the biggest hills, deepest snow, carving, jumping, lake everything. I dont ride usually past 60 70 mph b/c im looking for a spot to play. Im am trying to decide between a 153" yamaha mtx turboed or a assault 144 possibly a freeride 144 also i have had alot of problems with skidoo tho. i would like to know everyone's opinions handling climbing power etc Thanks!
