2014 El Tigre 6000
I rode the 2014 el tigre on Friday and found it to be a great sled. The minor tweaks made in comparison with the 2013 procross is noticeable in a few key ways.
Conditions> tight in the straights with mildly loose corners average 35-55mph top speed of 79mph on a straight. 20 mile ride
I liked the cushier seat and the rounded front, it made it really nice to switch from side to side in the corners and on the small stutter bumps it keeps your back from knowing they are there.
The 600 is a good new addition to the lineup, it pulls right from the go which is different from the clutching in the 800 that jerks forward every time you breath on the throttle
It launches very well and feels more stable then most when launching from the start or out of a corner
Braking was really smooth
The only bad thing is the stock windshield that doesnt do anything. I frequently ride in sub zero temperatures and appreciate the art of wind deflection.
9 Years since I ordered a new sled and I bit the bullet... after riding it I had to have one... Looking forward to next winter and ill be sure to pickup the bigger shield.
