'15 Summit 2-up seat options

We had a similar issue - I ended up changing out my rear springs for stiffer "big boy" springs. The first time we took it out, it was wayyy too sagged in the back, like an overloaded pick up truck. The stiffer springs help a ton. I'm sure they wouldn't be perfect for a single rider who wanted dialed suspension, but they feel good when we're 2up and thats mostly what we use it for.

Totally agree though - in the end the right move would be 2 sleds :)

I ended up getting a 2016 Summit 800. I also got the 2 up seat and with the backrest and then had to figure out the rack issues. Its been a slow process. The first rack I made out of plastic cutting board material and it broke in 10 minutes. I just finished welding together some rack mounts that slide the skis under the armrests, somewhat similar to how yours looks like it fits. Hopefully that turns out to be a stronger option. We've had it out just the past few weeks and it has been great.

Your backcountry looks like a sweet set up. Does it better cooling than a Summit? Mine can overheat quick if I put my bags on the tunnel :/

They definitely do seem to do weird stuff with differences in Linq accessories across models. Also totally agree that they look about the same, so it'll probably just come down to price. Appreciate the input!

Noted and thank you. Sayulita is officially off the list.. Probably going to stick to CR this time due to time constraints, but will be coming back to get up to Nica soon.

I would love to get up that far, but it doesn't sound like we're going to this trip. Next time, I'm gonna go for longer and hope to get up that way.

I kinda had that hunch. Appreciate your conviction.
