front cooler guard?

[Snorider]

I just seen that rasmussen has a front cooler guard. is this a big issue and maybe something to invest in? I haven't heard of anyone personally that poked a hole riding on the gen 5 but that doesn't mean squat.

Unless you are doing the pin and wiggle down to dirt I would skip it.

there is definitely that going on at times. except when it comes to rototilling...its a no go.

thanks for the reply

I think it will hurt cooling and potentially ice over as well.

Just had a beer with owner of dealership I shop at. He told me in his 35 years he has seen hole in front cooler 5 times. Always when you should be dirtbiking instead of sledding. lol

It could hapoen out there right now forsure, but people want to sled and not dirt bike in december i guess.

Ive had it happen. But id take my chances rather then run that thing.

Three inch track and gravel on the trail will do that to any sled.
