Shaolinfist is on a distinguished road
I've been out on my XTX a few times on the ice, it handled OK however I was driving super slow, not much more than 30. I went out today however and as the ice is very minimal (more like frost) I drove like normal and was fine. A lot depends on your tyres too, more slick less grip. I am using my normal summer tyres which are road only, not the best for ice where you want more knobbly tyres like the dual sport type ideally.
