My first couple of rides on my F7 I only had the flat, grip plates on my sled, and I was impressed at how the running boards stayed clear of snow and ice, compared to my riding buddies.
Yesterday I also installed a set of the Cross Country Edge Grip Plates. I have to admit, I did it because I really liked the way they looked, and thought a little added protection to the running board heat exchangers couldn't hurt.
I was just wondering if anyone who has either both sets of grip plates, or even just the edge grip plates, noticed any difference in the ability of the heat exchangers to keep the ice and snow off the running boards. We are going riding in a couple of weeks and I was just wondering what to expect.
Think snow.
