It would be nice. But why does the title of the article have 2015 but then the article it self has 2016?

Be great if it is true. Polaris faithful deserve a decent, powerful engine.

LOL, That's only on the Doo forum, Reality, they're probably about 10 real HP apart.

With some porting the Doo etec is close to 160 hp
Without 146 - 149 pending machine.

The glue idea worked awesome last time! Can't wait to see how well a "lighter" crankshaft works! After all, that is an optional part right?

Hopefully it is true and the engine is just as strong as there older 700 twin engines. I'd make the switch back to Polaris
Because it's not from a reliable source. No website info... nuthin.
Polaris needs something soon though. I think their loyals deserve it.

Actually it seems like since theyve been using the clamp , the glue on the suspension and driveshaft has been working fine. I sure haven't seen many issues on Poo's, a few but I've also seen a few etecs and cat 800's go down, $hit happens. I like the glue idea , helps make it lighter, and one of the things I enjoyed most abou my Pro's was the lack of weight, very obvious in comparison.

I thought this was old news. Didn't polaris hint about it last fall?

Well, the new HO Motor is out in the Axys Rush, so it is only logical that they bring it to the mountain segment next year. So yes, this is old news.

Light weight cranks work awesome! If you do it right! Speedwerx started doing it to cats 700 lay down engines back in 04/05 for the 800 open mod sno-cross sleds. It worked so good for so many years that cat decided in 10 it would have the new 10HO come stock with the lightweight mod. So as long as Polaris does their testing and engineering right, there is no downfall. You don't hear of many cat HO's having bottom end problems.
Yeah it's pretty much implied, but to keep people buying 2015's, they (Polaris Industries) aren't going to usually talk about the 2016's... particularly before anyone has even ridden their 2015's yet...
So the existence of a 2016 HO RMK is not being argued. But I'd argue the validity of them advertising it before Dec/January.
