Yamaha new Sidewinder, my opinion on the floor.

any idea what the weight of the drive train including turbo is compared to the nytro with the mpi kit?

My opinion is similar if you remove the massive suitcase of a muffler.

Thank's for sharing your experience on the sled, yes i can't wait to give one a try.
I did check the one you guys had on display in Kelowna the one day and seriously considering getting into one.
I was hoping for a little different chassi and seating but the new engine has me almost sold.
I talked to Nick and he said this engine will be easily upgradable to higher HP. Probably a simple program with no component changes.
How would you compare it with a front mount T 240/270hp Nytro in power?
I suspect the handling is easier..yes?

I suspect the weight to be near the same as i found little difference between my Nytro and a Viper in weight.

Of course 200 (DynoTech ) is a bit less than 240/270 programs but im also certain those levels are easily attainable. For me personally likely a Power up, Seat (like I have on Vipex), Lithium Battery and a Straight Pipe will be my main items.
Sled feels like 2016 front end Vipers andM8's. Up for anything it gets tossed.
Hope we can get out in the fall
