I put about 150 Miles on this weekend here in northern lower michigan.
I rode mostly around Interlochen, thompsonville and up towards Empire.
Trails were not good, very Icy. I have a standard f-5 with 96 1.080 studboy studs with 6 inch shaperbars. Front skid shock set as loose as it will go w/o being loose. Front a arm shocks with 2 3/4 inches of threads showing. Rear springs on middle setting and coupler blocks on #2. The problem is it will push right through the corners. Well this morning I put a friends Cand A skis on, they have at least 8 0r 9 inch carbides on them and I experienced the same thing although it was slightly improved, on glare ice it still did the same thing. I am a very agresive rider. It did not matter if I leaned way off or not it still pushed. Should I try pulling the limiter strap up notch? All input and advice apreciated. Also I have the chance to buy the CandA's for a hundred bucks should I buy these or hold out for the powder pro's?
Thanks R.J.
