Im aiming to have 2 sleds, this way I can have a super fun flickable sled for ultra tight trails around Muskoka and then have a big turbo for Qc. Im open to all brands more then ever, there really is no bad sled made today and I love swapping with buds, it always keeps things interesting. I...
Viper is a nice sled....I feel Yam would sell a ton more Vipers if the price point was further from a Winder. Its by far the nicest NA 4s on market. If it had abit more power/top end, at abit lower price point, i think they would sell alot more. Maybe add EPS to a Viper GT model too.

Dano and I were also noticing, at certain angles(pic below)....that is a GT taller window on this Blue power steering '22.
Makes sense....the GT should get EPS as its a cruiser. Also has the manual Qs3 shocks. Only thing that does not make sense to me, is why does this sled in video have the...
Couple things come to mind after reading above replies....
I think we do need to remember, there have been SEVERAL changes/updates since 2017 model year. Some of these are true changes and well documented, but not all.
New brake lever/reservoir ect.
New switch gear
New front end...
Agree they need to fix issues, but we have known this for 4-5 yrs now. Just cause you think EPS is "useless" doesn't mean everyone else does. I can tell you this addition will make many old school Apex owners make the change.
You will never hear Yamaha come out and say in writing they fixed...
Agree EPS is not needed on this chassie.....But you guys are missing the point i think....
Steering is always a compromise of keel design, carbide length, and effort of steering. When you introduce Power steering to any sled, you now dont need to compromise your ski/carbide combo to get a good...
Would be interesting if YAM is only one to get PS. Maybe it will only be on the top dog(SRX)?? It would set the Winder apart from cat. Or maybe the Tcat will be gone and cat will be all 2s? Gonna be interesting to see what Cat does as this is their 60th anny, and they are due for a new Gen2...
Wonder why they dont call it EPS? (Electronic Power Steering), maybe just a simpler graphic for side of cowl, but I assume its Apex like, and not some mechanical power steering. He did mention in the video older customers from apex and vector.
Dan
Also, makes me wonder if YAM will give PS to the Tcat? I believe this tech is off the Apex, which is Yamaha. I find it encouraging to finally see something on these sleds from the YAMAHA company finally.
Dan
Good catch....So a BLUE LTX. I wonder about the manual shocks? I prefer manual shocks, maybe they added power steering to the LE model and went back to manual shocks to keep pricing down? I think alot of guys would appreciate the option of manual shocks. GT typically has the manual shocks, so...
I think its an SRX. Blue, and can see the turbo hose, and has lower front end.
Finally looks like ALL blue too, spindles, upper/lower arms ect.
Wonder what price will be now with Power steering? Yikes!
Will be cool to run some big carbides and still have easy steering.
Dan
Definitely not a Viper as it has no grills in hood....
Also it has manual Qs3 shocks. I was hoping they would offer the SRX with manual shocks.
Video is here if you guy can catch any other clues
I have heard this many times too. It would make sense for POO to bring out a 4s. They are going after DOO for sales, I believe POO already sells MORE 2s sleds right now, but DOO sells a ton of 4s, believe it or not DOO sells the most 4s sleds of all(including cat/yam combined). So POO certainly...
I hear ya.....I am aiming to own 2 sleds going forward. One for the big Qc trails and one for my local area where the 2s works well. I am keeping open mind to see what comes out over the next couple of weeks, and am considering the Matryx too. Really hope YAM/CAT has some updates, even if...
I have read a few times Doo 17th, Cat 18th, and POO 1st. If that is true I would imagine YAM will be within a few days of Cat. Very interested in what CAT is doing, mostly cause its their 60th anny, and 10 yrs since procross was released. My guess is Cat needs to bring out their new chassie, and...
