We all better hope Yamaha did not mess with the rear suspension. If they did it would be a step backwards there is not a Yamaha rear suspension made that comes remotely close to the pro cross. I'm not sure why you guys wish for such things.
I don't think you will find many that will disagree with you about AC skids being better than anything Yamaha has ever produced. The reason we would want something from Yamaha is because all manufactures learn from each other. Two years ago, Ski-Doo's rear suspension was considered the best in the business, this year Polaris came out with the XC rear suspension that is just as good if not better than Ski-Doo's. Both are better than what AC currently offers. This is according to the "experts". You would think that Yamaha would go to work and build something comparable to current offerings from SD or POL. No one sets out to develop something new with results that would put them in 3rd or 4th. If Yamaha engineers can't do this then they need to get new ones. Its kind of amazing that they have not been able to do this, but someone has to be last.

Is this a typo or a hint to Yamaha supplying a triple on the 5th? Hmm
If it's real my deposit is already sent to my guys at Port lol
You beat me to it, I was just about to post the same photo. I think it may be a type, but it could very well be a blue-head or red-head triple.
In that photo, the blue sled has color on top of the seat, like the Yamaha teaser photo. Who knows, we all will Monday.

I'm guessing "typo"....chances of have two different 800 2-strokes (one Yamaha & one AC) in the same sled are pretty slim, but it is nice to dream.Is this a typo or a hint to Yamaha supplying a triple on the 5th? Hmm

Tbone who are considered the experts here, I ride with guys that have the new Poo and Doo iron and I disagree the pro cross front suspension is way better in my opinion and the rear is very close, it may lack alittle to the Poo on bigger bumps and the Doo we'll all i can say is you couldn't give me one of those G-4 things. All over the trail and high side like no tomarow. Any way Yamaha is not known there suspension and never will be.

Good callI think it's a tarp that they are using to tow the sled on. You can see the straps holding it on.
