    .

    I'm in St-albert,near victoriaville,Quebec Canada
    The suspension feel good,the real 350x probably feel better for race,but for snow trail the 500 have a loooooot more torque,electric start.....paradise
    I have not tested with other bike,but it's very fast
    If a found another rolling frame I will install my spare Cr500 engine in it

    KOOOOL - I am glad to hear the extra weight didn't kill the suspension.
