[QUOTE="mmjsport, post: 174296, member: 926"] 13/50 is probably a great combo for what you were doing in vids! The 14' 350 and 14' 500 are only 4 lbs apart so there isn't a huge difference in actual weight. I think the 500 handles every bit as good as the 350. The only time you notice a small difference is probably at 0-5 mph when in the super tight stuff. But the loads of torque the 500 has makes it easier to get through the bad stuff. (But that loads of power can get you in trouble also I suppose) After owning the 350 and 500 for a year or so each, I can say the 500 is my cup of tea though. The 350 has a ton of power (more than anyone would need) but I wasn't a fan of how it made it. I didn't like riding it in the upper rpms all the time to really get all the power. But that's preference I suppose. The 350 gives you that feeling that you can do anything. It's really confidence inspiring! I loved it.
