Aloha! Been lurking on snowest literally for years.
Was a doo guy then went to Cat, now decided to give doo another shot...price was right lol.
Anyway... Just thought I'd add my 2 cents to the growing counter culture of deleting the t-motion out of the XM.
I recently "locked" mine out (machined some big washers for a nice precise fit) and all I gotta say is wow! My riding style definitely still favours a rigid skid. That and some polaris gripper skis and I feel like I can actually ride again! I always had trouble with steep climbs or sidehilling anything steeper than a 25 deg. slope on the XM until these changes.
Too accustomed to putting alot of body language into it I guess.
I don't mean to troll but I have to push the fact that for those that are heavier or used to riding a more traditional chassis and just can't feel at home on a t-motion, deleting/locking it out and setting up the skid again is a game changer.
2.5 flex edge here.
