If you were to buy a "NEW" Sled

[mountainhunter]

A 2011 or 2012 xp etec. Possibly a xm if I got to compare a stock xp to a stock xm the same day. The xp would be a ton cheaper. Tough to say if the xm would be worth the price. Someone buy my tm8 so I can find out!

no turbo cat ? seemed like it went pretty good .did you ride a pro last year ?

am waiting until Feb 2013 for the best mountain sled built todate to be released. Its going to be a game changer!

I tried asking Swenson at the sled show... Gonna be interesting. I predict a Yamaha may be in my future.

I'll be running the cat this year. Should really run strong this year after Deano gets done working on it. And I plan on riding it harder than I have been. If not on that I'll be on a 06 iqr 162 with a 900 union bay. Definately my favorite sled right now. I love the rider position of it. That's why I'd like a xp. It's the closest sled to the iqr IMO.

Don't tell me....... They are producing a lightweight big bore wedge, only took them 15 years to realize they all had it wrong, or is cat going to a belt drive, better clutching, moving the post ahead 3-5inches, releasing it with a 3inch track, and creating a version of the t motion skid? hey I can dream right hahaha

it was down to the pro or a left over M. it was seriously....a hard decision. but i went with the better motor and arguably the best motor

yeeeeeeeeeehaw!

My buddy bought the same thing, left over M Sno Pro, for around 9500 out the door. It's a great looking sled, and I'm sure pulls like a mule. Bought his in PG I believe.

Id go with the all white limited pro or the new rmk assault.. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't wanna try an XM, was a doo guy before I rode a pro

Read my mind! The all white Pro is probably the best looking sled I have ever seen. Although those all black XM's are equally sick...

what's the scoop on the 'best mountain sled built to date'?...?

 

[Hillclimber]

163 xm

 

[arcticdodge]

I think I would have to get a wedge.

 

[Sparky67]

2012 XF 800 High Country (Black)

 

[summit1974]

XM 163 ... i will try out the pro when i get a chance though

 

[Wilk INStheWEST]

I love the look of the White Pro LE, but I would wrap it, so Black Pro 163, prefer the look of a wrap on a black sled.

 

[JaySimon]

Easy. 163 Freeride.

Guy can dream.

 

[Trax 2 Treadz]

If money was no object we would be driving down to Clyde Park and picking up some CMX-X's but reality is I'll be patching up and riding the old 1M for another year...

 

[Skegmeister]

I did buy a new sled, new to me. I bought a 2010 Dragon 800 with 163. I am putting the Fix kit in now to be ready to ride in December/January. I went with a used sled with low miles because this will the second year of riding in the mountains. Even with the fix, I am still less than half the cost of the new PRO RMK. If I am going to wreck one, might just as well wreck a used one until I learn how to ride better.
Rubber side down

 

[Nitrobkr]

XM all the way.
That is until the "game changer" comes out of course.

 

[enis750]

pretty sure i bought it - 2013 FreeRide 146
proven chassy, engine etc etc etc

if i lived out west and could ride a sh*t ton of days, and money was no object
99% sure id be on a supercharged/turbo'd Nytro with a million bux into it to make it lighter!! LOL!
something about the sound of a 4 stroke w a sweet exhaust system (think sport bike w an akropovich, yoshi or erion racing muffler like type thingy) - Just love it!

seriously tho Yamaha ...... blow us away next year please - YOUR DUE!

 

[BRP QSC]

Ok here it is
55% would or did buy skidoo product
31% would buy or did buy Polaris
3% went the artic cat way
11% thought or mentioned Yamaha (nobody bought)

But when i see youtube videos i usually see the polaris. Being that this was the biggest seller for the last two years it makes sense
I guess we will wait and see what Yamaha has up its sleeves. LOL probably a mid ship engine with automatic transmission coming in at a cool 783lbs "dry weight"

more vids because of the boost the Pro's were getting and yes they sold a few more eh...(do you know the numbers?) hopefully they get the ETEC dialed in this year with boost and I bet you see a few more xm clips... the Pro is a nice ride

I went XM
