    Textron Seeks “Strategic Alternatives” For Arctic Cat Division

    I wish Yamaha would buy Cat, and offer us a 2 stroke and 998T version of the Catalyst, but built to Yamaha standards.

    Articat shutting down

    I can’t help but wonder how some of these dealers are staying a float. One of our large power sports dealers has 97 sleds, 99 motorcycles, 52 ATV’s, and 75 UTV’s, and not much appears to be moving. Yikes.

    RIP Don VX1R

    I live under a rock, so I am just seeing this. Like many of you, I had seen Don’s builds on this site over the years. I always thought they were tasteful and perfectly executed. A couple years ago, I was thinking of jumping ship because I had been on my SW for 5 seasons, and I wanted to try...

    Catalyst 998t rumours

    Several Doo dealers on the SD forum are reporting that spring orders were down 75-80% compared to last season. There should be some great deals coming.

    Catalyst 998t rumours

    I switched to a 900R this season. There are things I like better on the Lynx, and things I liked better on my Sidewinder. One thing is clear though. The 900R engine does not hold a candle to my Tuned 998 engine. The best performance analogy I can come up with is, the 998T is like having a 3/4...

    Catalyst 998t rumours

    Isn’t that engine built by Kymco, or am I thinking of a different engine?

    Catalyst 998t rumours

    It will be interesting to see what they come up with. Textron also use an N/A version of the 998 in the Wildcat XX. If the marriage with Yamaha is over, they will be looking for a power plant for that too.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    I hated the original itc throttle on the 900T. I don’t mind the throttle on my 900R. The 998 throttle is still better though.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    There is very little difference in the way the 146 feels compared to the 137. I certainly wouldn’t let it keep me from buying one.

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    I switched to a Lynx with the 900R this season. I didn’t switch because I was unhappy with my Sidewinder, I switched because I wanted a new sled, and I didn’t want to ride the same thing for another 7k miles. Admittedly, I hate the way the G5 Ski-Doo’s look, and I had read numerous times that...

    Pull the trigger on a 998 or 900R?

    If I were riding quebec all the time, I would probably be running a sidewinder ltx le or SRX with Max Spool 16. And I ride a 900R currently.

    What are you looking to do with the sled and what kind of trails do you ride?

    Good Bye

    Congratulations on the new sled. I would imagine there will be more goodbyes with Yamaha exiting the business. I switched to a Lynx this season. I like just about everything better on the sled, but I do miss the power and speed of my tuned Sidewinder.

    No Online Sno Check

    Our local dealer got allocated 12 machines. They sold them all the first afternoon.

    2025 SRX photo leak?

    Probably because BRP’s color and graphics department is the lamest in the industry. The trail sleds are the same color year after year, and the graphics are extremely basic. The G5 Doo is ugly as #*$&@ too. 9 years later, and the 2025 Yamaha’s will still be some of the sharpest sleds on snow.
