Im here....did my own test this weekend and turns out my Cat rules all.

Yup. I will admit my sled had some growing pains at first, new chassis and all, but now that I have it set up to the way I ride I am willing to bet there's not an xm out there n/a that can keep with it..........................................

I'd say I did more personalizing.

Whoah, secondary, re-geared, new track, a-arms and the list goes on. are you sure it's not because it rode and performed like a ditch pickle?? :confused: or a copied version of a REV?

Kinda ashamed to say this but over on snowest apparently they're already making conversion kits for them... Oh my. Where are all my fellow cat guys? I give up lol.

Gotta hand it to tom for refining perfection and still keeping the t-motion intact with the floats!!

Just pokin' LOL

I bought the secondary hoping to fix the belt issues I had, seems it was just the original secondary I had from the factory which I realized after I bought the team, so may as well, use it. Dropped a gear for more bottom end snap for my style riding, 2.25 powerclaw isn't for me, it's not a bad track on set up snow but it's a death trap trying to control it going downhill, glad cat refined it this year, was going to powdercoat my a arms but found these for same price so that's a no brainer, plus having a spare set is nice to have. So yeah I'd still say I was personalizing it. Airframes for better snow evac, yup list goes on. I can't leave anything stock anyways.

Yeah it is a well designed kit I must say. I would actually like to try one for shits, all the joking aside, I do think it's a cool idea.

Marketshare will tell the story in the mountain segment this year. I've been told its a Poo/Doo show in Western Canada this year. Apparently bendy suspensions and flickability is all the rage in 2013.

The kids are calling it "dangling."

The turbo isn't something I have to do, it's something I CAN do, unlike your beloved etec, I've yet to see one run worth talking about. I don't "have" to do any of the things I did other then get a new secondary under warranty, I'd say I did more personalizing.


Oh and just so everyone knows, just like Dan, my group of washed up nobodies did our own test, and when the suspensions are set up, everyone agreed my proclimb is as easy to tip over as those new brp abominations and can go line for line with a new xm. The group consisted of 3 poo riders, 2 xm riders, 1 yammatank owner and 2 proclimbs. Yes, you heard it maxwell. No different. But it's too bad brp had to pull a pivoting skid out of their asses just to stay on par with the competition, OHHHH btw how's that's going for ya buddy?? HA.[/QUOTE]

Going fine lol? Part in stock warrantied back on snow next day no big deal LOL. But good try.

Wow !! Are you saying there's so many t-motions failing, that the dealers are keeping parts in stock ? That's definitely one thing BRP is good at. Keep ten of every part in stock, because they know that chit is gonna break, and break, and break.......etc, etc....

Probably pulling them from kits HV. Dealers are selling tons of those kits to XP owners.

No they just have policies in place so they don't have to hack apart customers sleds on the show room floor like vultures.

This seems reasonable, especially considering how ill-handling the xp's are and how much of an improvement the T-Motion makes. The really sad part is all the people that bought XP's believing they were mountain sleds and now they have to buy a bandaid kit that will get them somewhat close to how a mountain sled should actually handle. It will be a real shame if this rubber-dildo, half-assed, bandaid fix starts breaking on a regular basis.
