Anyone Running an ATV With Tracks

My plan was to outfit one of my atvs (800) with snow tracks.

Anyone run them? How do they deal with the slush monster? With glare ice? 

Internet seems to either love or hate them, looking for some utah specifics.

 I never venture onto ice I question, but it does seem to me the load is spread more evenly.

Thanks
Do yourself a huge favor and call the track MFG and discuss in detail with them what ATVs are suitable for using track systems - not all ATVs are suitable.  I did that two years ago and made the decision to not do it.  Last year, I sold my snowmobile and bought a Snowdog.  It has limitations just like every other hauling device used for ice fishing.  But most of the time it is the best device I've owned so far.  Tracks only work great on just a couple brands of quads.  Call the track company before you spend the $4 to $5 grand the tracks will cost you.  My Snowdog out the door was $4,300.
