Hmmm. Too much gas? I thought I heard/read that they were the BEST of the 3 for fuel usage?

Even as a cat guy i have never heard of the cat 800 being the most fuel efficient

Hmmm. Don't remember where i heard it, but it was likely an unreliable source. Lol

 

[TROLLCAT]

Dealer might've suckered ya lol the cats are like a big block, lots of power but they definitely use more fuel than the others lol not that I worry about Mpg's on my sled.

I would quit sledding if fuel and oil consumption were a concern, $15,000 for a sled, $$$$ to haul it around, hotels and food for some, booze for some......fuel and oil are pretty cheap in comparison.....only a long ride would fuel usage be an issue and on those days pack some spare fuel

Little extra fuel and oil also a small price to pay for the reliability.

I wouldn't say they burn more fuel than all others, i ride with etecs and polaris pros quite regularly and fuel consumption is always about the same, valemount a few weeks ago 15 pro, 14 xm and my 14 m all 163 and we were all within a 1-2 liters of each other every fill up, i may have burned a bit more oil than them but lets see whos motor lasts longer

You forgot the 25 a day trail pass that's gonna bankrupt me.

That's optional you really don't have to pay it

For all you guys that think the m is outdated here's a few pics for ya. The basic geometry is identical to a pro. Same foot wells, handlebar position,seat position. My cat is 4" narrower than the pro. Yet one is junk and the other is the greatest.

Nailed it!!!

I think they both weigh the same too???

I ride an 09 m1000 162 and my brother rides a 13 hcr 153 and my dad has a 15 m8000 153 and after a few days in vale I'd say the pro climb is definitely a nicer machine, they constantly climbed higher handled better in the ruts and were less tiring to ride never mind how they absorbed the brutal trails up Allen and Chappell last weekend

They out climbed your 1000 with a 162 track?

Turn that M1000 track around if it's the stock 2.25 camo. It'll work much better.

I run the 2.6 track, and my sled is dialed in and runs strong. Just need snow. Just got to Fernie and here till next year!

 

[togo ripper]

I have the power claw and ya I was surprised as well, my rpm was bang on just couldn't get as much ground speed
