I would think twice about an El Tigre for the wife. They come with the Fox Float shocks that are set up with the Sno Pro tuning, great for bashing moguls and banging ditches, but quite harsh for the trails. She might appreciate the ride (and tall windshield) of the LXR much better. Also, even though the XF 1100 comes in a LXR version, it does not ride nearly as good as the 137" or the 129" due to the fact that the 141 has the mountain suspension in it.
As for the 141, I've been on one for the past 4 years. It's ok, but you do notice the extra length. If you plan to do any serious off-trail riding, get the 800 and avoid the 4-strokes. The weight of the 4-stroke is much more noticeable off-trail than on.Statistics: Posted by Gabe — Sat Apr 04, 2015 5:49 pm
