2017 switchback assault?

TrxR · Feb 20, 2017

Anyone here own a 17 sba 800 with a 2" track? If so how do you like it?

Looking for a good reliable 50/50 sled ? How well does it get around off trail?

My other option is a sks.

How reliable has the new 800 been?

Thanks

Im new here,
I just bought a 17 SBA Assault 800 144 with 2in track.
Work great.
Compared to my also new 17 Summit SP 850 165 with 2.5in track.

Handles nice on trails, and works great boondocking power lines. Its a great sled.

my friend has a AC XF8000 HighCountry 141 and SBA assault too, and like the assault much better.

SBA with 2". Has been a great 50/50 sled. 1600 miles so far this season and no issues. Good on trail and great off. I have chased every lake effect storm here in NY and sled has been awesome in 3+ feet of fresh snow.

If you are on a lot of trails that are wet snow or icey - scratchers and/or replace snowflap with the SKS snow flap to get some more cooling.

Can't go wrong with a SKS! Front cooler works awesome

I've got one in the 1.325 cobra. Love the sled. Fast! Also, no issues getting around with the 1.325 off trail. 2" would likely be better out west.

2017 Assault w/ a 1.35" track here, my off trail is flatland boondocking in 2 to 3 feet of snow max. I would prefer the bigger lug but it just doesn't work where I am in NY, especially in a bad winter like this...

I have also chased a few big lake effect dumps and she does fine in 4 feet of powder, prob not as good as good as the 2" but I can hold my own.
