2020 Release

Look at the sled being towed, what’s is that under the track ?

I'm guessing track is locked up and they put plastic under it so it would slide?

It's a tarp to tow it on. You can even make out the straps holding it on

I have been following this thread and wow guys so much speculation when no one has a clue. Yamaha has never been able to build a good chassis. Me personally I hope they don’t try and stick with the procross as it as been the best chassis by far they have ever had. I came from skidoo and got tired of blown motors I bought my first Yamaha soly because I wanted the engine reliability. You can have the best handleing chassis but it don’t mean anything when the motor is blown up.

As far as the recent pics. There’s no way possible Yamaha will have a fake post on their Facebook page that’s just common sense. The sled they posted in my opinion will just be the “all new sidewinder xtx 146” aka the RIot. Everything else will just be BNG. Keep dreaming guys on anything else.

I agree with most of what you said but I think they'll test the us market with the cat 600 2 stroke transporter, which I believe is the sled towing the 146 xtx

I origionally thought that area was photoshopped to hide the skid myself. But then someone here pointed out the straps and it being a tarp and I clearly see it now. As far as the tow sled appearing bigger than the sled being towed, I think that is just due to the camera perspective. Especially if it's a still shot pulled from a Gopro video, which makes the most sense to me.

I agree

I still wonder what the 3rd sled is? Definitely a 137, is it a winder or something else? I don't see the usually 57 winder and turbo stickers on it.

Yes that make sense. Just it seems odd Yamaha would post a pic of a 2020 sled being towed out lol

With no 1049 in cat's line up , maybe it's a new 998 na viper.

Yamaha didn't post it, a passer by did

And that’s even more not right lol, a motor company is gonna bring out a new sled to the North America market with a AC motor in it. I guess anything is possible nowadays.

Ha ok..

 

[STAIN]

phase of a relationship that has gone bad

How has it gone bad??

What exactly do you think is photo shopped.

Look at the picture on a large computer screen or iPad Pro . Someone has changed the original picture. The first sled is quite a bit bigger than the middle one & it isn't a camera angle thing ...someone needs to do a better job next time
