What changed aside from a turbo mountain?
Well Polaris just released their sleds and damn near every one changed. They also have a boosted 2 stroke for the mountain guys. They are a company that ACTUALLY listens to their customers and gives them what they want. Cat better have some tricks up their sleeves because if they don't they are going to loose a sh!t ton of market share especially in the mountain segment. 2 Manufactures down 1.5 to go.

Their entire lineup now uses the mytrx chassis which is the biggest. They have RMK's and Khoas models in 146". Adjustable height windshields. No more Rush looking sleds or whatever they called those. Fox shocks QS3 on in season models. They listed a ton of small stuff. It seems like they looked at every model and tweaked it.What changed aside from a turbo mountain?

And some Bravos
And some Enticers
It’s amazing in a way that people could be trained to be addicted to shiny new grenades.
I just want something that’s reliable and easy to work on.

Now if they had a performance 4 stroke for trail use, especially a turbo, then Id be fired up!

Yeah I wasn't too blown away except for their mountain sled but I kinda figured that was coming. I don't think we will ever see a 4 stroke in their sled lineup.Not too exciting in my eyes.

If the trend is toward turbo four strokes, and I think it is, they need to be in that space.
