You are right about there not being a lot of yamaha turbo's in our area! But not everyone wants to listen to the wine of a 2 stroke when they can have the roar of a turbo apex or the blow off of a turbo viper or sidewinder. The hills I can go straight over the 2 strokes have to sidehill to get up. Honestly to each their own!! Just ride, have fun and love life as it is to short.

Rather ride my Honda Civic then your Poulan chainsaw.

There aren't a lot of 4 strokes left in the mountains these days, I know a few guys that traded their boosted apex's and nytro's for stock 2-strokes.

I'll take my light 2-stroke over a pig of a 4 stroke anyday. Besides I like sound of a screaming turbo 2-stroke, especially when compared to the honda civic like sound of a 4 stroke.

Drew562 i hope your 2018 cat hasn't died yet ! My 97 mod mountain max still has the original pistons in it . Im glad u like your cats and thats great but if u had to sled to the north pole and back nobody would pick a cat . Yamaha has produced very high quality snowmobiles for a long time. Ive owned all the modern brands brp Polaris cat Yamaha. They all have somthing for everybody, if Yamaha would just build they own mountain sled people would buy it ,they dont want a yamacat .

They all make food and bad. . I’ve owned them all.
One of my sleds I currently own is a cat 2010 Z1 turbo. I would take it to the north pole and back. Probably beat your yami there by a couple days to. . Bullet proof sled. Fast as f#$k. Solid and handles wicked for a heavy sled. It’s probably been across Lac st Anne from one end to the other full throttle with no let off’s 50 times or more. I bought it to go fast on my lake. so Its spent 2800 miles of it’s life wide open It’s silly fun for trails or high speed traveling. . Id put that old cat up against any sled out today

2800 lake miles haha Chichen ****. Out here we run mountain miles that full pin all day in 3 feet of fresh think the 700mm is 7k miles . As from north pole and back i take my apex beat your kitty cat by a month or so. Yamaha are best in reliability cats are junk.
