Carbide question

[mwade34]

I have a stock 2000 SRX and the track has 144 studs. My current carbides need replaced. What carbide should I use for better handling?

I would go with 8" shaper bars at least. I used to run 10" with 192 studs. What kind of riding?

 

[mwade34]

Almost all trail riding

 

[RIVERRUNNER]

Yep I would run 8" shapers!!

Great, thanks!

Just put on those shaper bars and they definitely work!

I'm in about the same situation. I haven't replaced the carbides since I got the sled. However I have 192 studs. If/when I replace the track I'll only go 144 max. I'd bet I could get these current wearbars to last this season. I forgot to look when I was up last time. But I'd rather be safe than sorry. I like using bergstrom's. I'm a trail rider as well. If I go 8" would I be over driving them with the 192 studs?

8" woody's executive work awsome for me with 144 studs.

I know he has 144, I'm talking about my situation...

I have a ripsaw but no studs and run 6" shaper bars. The shaper bars are great.

Me too, I love the combo!

I don't think so.
