    does the added weight affect the speed?

    Well....I guess it might take a little longer to reach your top speed but once you get there, you can stay there. No need to slow down for things that would normally send you bouncing out of your seat or bend your axles.

    I was able to reach 47mph on the track at Ashtabula before running out of straightaway. I think I might be able to reach 50 if I had more room. Granted, the track at Ashtabula is much nicer than your typical AATV terrain but clearly, even with the extra weight, you'll be able to drive faster because you won't have to slow down as often. The wider stance (74 inches) also makes fast turning a little safer. Because they are so wide, you won't be able to zip through tight areas as easily as a would with a stock Attex SC. You will also be slower in the water.

    Springers are for going fast...and it's exhilarating . I use my other Attex (no suspension) for my trail riding (where the trees are pretty close to each other) and it's fun too....just a different kind of fun.

    the old style baloon tire will soften the ride if you can find a set of 6.

    Bruce, what wheels and tires do you currently have and what air pressure are you running? If you are running a deep bead wheel, just lowering the air pressure in your tires to 1 PSI can change the ride quality a lot.
