Lifting weights

..................... Or maybe it's Friday and I need a drink?

There we go...................and the truth be known.

Yup the only thing is take away is how consistent the weight is left or right. Helps show that the skidoo requires the least effort to get on it's side but once it hits 24" it requires less input and wants to go on it's side. Shows the Polaris is more consistent and the cat is hardest to put on it's side. I think all of the above is true from real world? Or maybe it's Friday and I need a drink?

I agree accept with the Polaris. I find tr skidoo and cat to tip over the most consistent with the cat taking more effort. And the Polaris to me has a bad tipping point half way through pulling it over.

That tipping point you're referring to is actually the balance point, and the reason its strange to you is cause your XM doesn't have one . When you do get it on its side you're dealing with the track flexing and the t-motion wiggling, and normal gravity ,while you're trying to find that actual consistent balance point , which is non-existent in the Doo cause of all the extra flexing and bending. That's why when you follow a Doo on a sidehill you'll see the trench in the snow constantly be adjusted back up, if you follow the same skills rider on a Pro you'll see the tracks in the snow far straighter, less constant correcting. Kinda like a single projectile rifle or a shotgun, easier to hit the target with a shotgun , but easier to hit the bullseye with a rifle. Depends what you're looking for.

FACTS?, Sure....

I know you've seen it but perhaps you forgot about the video that surfaced a few months back that shows weights of the sleds while riding out in the snow.....did you catch that?....OUT IN THE SNOW.......to me this is where things should be measured.....but you probably call those FACTS false because it's not BRP propaganda....lol

You mean the video "brought to you by arctic cat" where they packed the snow on the poos and doos and didn't on the cats?

well, you can call it down or you can weigh them yourself if you think its fake. I pulled 2 five gallon pales of ice off my sled a few weeks ago after a couple deep days, meant to update one of these threads where I promised to do it, but I couldn't find the thread later on. When it melted out it was probably around 7.5-8 gallons. Weight = 65 lbs of water (as per the scale) - i didn't subtract the weight of buckets.

[towerrigger]

Guess I should add the the weights of the sleds that they got. Looks like Polaris gained 5 pounds.

Geez LHF, its no wonder people don't believe anything you say.

 

[Clode]

I don't care what brand you ride, showroom weight is a lot different from in the snow weight, I always end up with a least 5 gals of water off my sled after a ride 50+ pounds.....


and Maxwell you live in a dream world with unicorns.....

 

[CUSO]

If that's all ya got good on you cat401. FACTS lmao!

I myself don't believe anything that is compared on the internet, ESPECIALLY a doctored video, unless the facts come from an unbiased source. then MAYBE..

But go ahead champ... and believe anything you want.

awe, boo fawkin hoo Cuso......there's a video that doesn't put your doo on the top.....I'm sorry if I wrecked your day over it.

sheesh.....get over it man....move on!


Ok big talker.....Bring out YOUR FACTS that shows that this doesn't happen.......

The video showed the Doo had 83 lbs of snow & ice vs the Cat had 47 lbs......

I have seen 1st hand how the Cat holds on to much less snow compared to doo....you need to get out and ride with a few other brands and then come back with some real knowledge....Champ

What's funny is buddy last weekend , has a 13, 163, 800 cat..... Over heated and kept overheating and had scratchers down right from the start

When we got back to the truck, loaded it and buddy's 13 xm 163, the xm had no snow in the tunnel and the kitty was right full

Now this is spring snow, and mabe in puff pow the snow won't stick inside the kitty

But 75 % of most people that ride are not in dry puff pow

First thing I'd do to the kitty is put a Friggin cooler back there, just for the overheating

sent while I should be drinking tea's

I don't know about you guys but I just like to ride sleds instead of argue about the physics of lifting them...
