    2021 Release?

    Sure will be fun and intresting to see this new Mountain Max to go head-to-head against Cat's Alpha One next coming winter!! Really hoping some magazine manages to bring these two beasts together for some serious bottom-less snow testing, and after the (snow-) dust have settled, also bring out a...

    2021 Release?

    Message to YAMAHA and Arctic Cat: Instead of two brands, just call them YAMACAT from 2022... more simple that way! And then you will also save on the graphics department! These suggestions is free of charge! Cheers!

    2021 Release?

    Haha! So much for the "electric avenue" then... Anyway, it will be intresting to see how this company TAIGA will be doing coming years. With bad winters and shrinking market, I think it's pretty bold of them trying to get a share of that market. And I must say that their pre-production models...

    2021 Release?

    Like I wrote yesterday, I feel an electric sled from YAMAHA is a bit too early for 2021. I'm sure it will come someday, but I have the last 15 years been thinking that motorcycles will be electric before sleds...and that has still not really taken off. Instead the car-industy have really...

    2021 Release?

    Going down the "Electric Avenue"...?? If YAMAHA would release an electric snowmobile, it would be without doubt, on the same surprise level as when they released the RX-1 in 2002! Still remember that moment, when I could see it in person and hear it running! And I didn't see that machine...

    SNO SPORT WAS TRADEMAKED AGAIN

    Must say that I find this very intriguing! Part of it because I think, like many others, Yamaha needs some modern sled for the younger crowd! But, also part of it because the name SnoSport brings very nice memories back from the past! I still remember the day when I saw the SnoSport for the...

    Yamaha Cutting Production for 2019

    I have this feeling of stumbling in darkness here... Anyway, I dreamt this night Chris Reid was back with "Sled talk" . And boy, did he have great news for everybody!! Then I woke up...

    Saw ALL the sleds last night at show

    Thanks for observations! Your last sentences is interesting to think about. If Poo and Doo would come with 4stroke N/A power in the 150-160 league, that would be an intriguing development! I mean, they have both a lot of really great chassi/suspension tech, they just need the proper engine. I´m...

    2018

    I think the SRX you refer to is the ´82 SRX/Vmax with the 500 liquid cooled engine. American Snowmobiler Mag. did a nice write-up on this mystery machine in Feb. 2015 issue (if I remember correct, don´t have the mag in front of me). Can recommend to check it out. I know one person in Sweden who...

    2018

    Congratulations!! Is this the same one that has been for sale right now? Number 104 maybe? (don´t remember where I saw it) Does it have the relocated 128" track also? A great piece of Yamaha-history to take care of...and for others to envy, me included;-)

    2018

    If it was for 2012, I would think it was a revised FXNytro with new front-end, relocated steering post and some more up-dates... Instead, in some last minute decision, they got this idea that they could use ACs Procross chassi and stamp in the Nytro-engine there instead. All because AC needed...

    2018

    My predictions for 2018: Apex gone...R.I.P (you will be missed, and second hand prices will go out of the roof;-) Sidewinder gets 4-lb. weight reduction and BNG (black and chrome 50th anniversarie editon) SRViper gets...BNG. Phazer gone, and will be replaced with a new chassi, co-devolped...

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    Member Journeyman was mostly correct on his prediction for ´17, based on some hearsay. Problem was that the prediction also stated brand new chassi...and that was what I was hoping for most;-) Sorry Journeyman, not your fault at all, you were just telling us what you had heard, and just told...

    Is a 2-stroke coming??

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    Just got the scoop right now!! It´s not a snowbike coming from Yama-camp...it´s a totally new, never seen before, concept!! It will carve the mountains like never before!

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    It will be very fun to see whats new (like every year), but I´m trying to keep expectations kind of... low;-) Of course not much have come out so far, but the general feeling is that Yama and AC is just getter tighter and closer for every year... and it´s not a feeling I´m really comfortable...

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    I see some comments about a possible 4 holer, but haven´t member "Journeyman" already kind of confirmed that the new machine is a 3 holer !?? Assumingly a very fast 3 holer, but nevertheless not a true replacement for the Apex... Looking at the only spy picture we have so far, I would say it...

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    Haha! "...AC bastard child Viper re-work" I had to laugh when I read that... but, if thats what we got on 1 of March, it´s not so funny actually...

    New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

    We are in need of a new video. Little longer, with a little more snow, more sound and a little more machines!
