Lol.. What have you come up with...?
looks closest to a r1 crossplane to me. maybe just different rpms?Well, If you think that's funny (and I do too),... I've been analyzing the audio for two days now...

LolYou guys analyzing the crap out of ever frame of this teaser video is just too darn funny
Could this be the circles in the
SAND ?? It almost looks like it !
Nottin' really - Hard to get samples of the same apparent RPM audiowise. The R1 motorbike sound I found definitely seems lower in RPM then the teaser video. I viewed several R1 videos on youtube and none sound as high pitched as the teaser.Lol.. What have you come up with...?
Really? How many pages have been devoted to this?That video shows you nothing. If that's any indication of what Yamaha has, expectations are very low. That has to be the least effective promo video ever in the history of snowmobiles.
TY is a friendly forum. Please be friendly. Express any criticisms you have, but we talk respectfully to eachother here. Other forums seem to be fine with bashing and disrespect but not here.That video only tweaks interest with the most diehard loyalists. Nobody that rides another brand gets excited by that unless he's been drinking rather heavily.
I've never seen so much excitement about so little content. Sorry TY, but it's rather laughable. Any bets about whatever it is weighing less than 500 lbs? I'll give you 10-1 odds not a chance.
Is that why there's threads about it over on dootalk? Or is it why you keep trolling through this thread. LolThat video only tweaks interest with the most diehard loyalists. Nobody that rides another brand gets excited by that unless he's been drinking rather heavily.

I do not think that it will be a large displacement engine in this "new" sled. Over on Sled Talk, Chris replied to a rider wishing to replace his Apex for a lighter version with equal power, his answer was, "I don’t know if we will have the right machine to fit your needs." That tells me that there will be no redesigned Apex or similarly powered sled this year.

I'll sleep out in the snow in a tent. No room needed.Dear Yamaha,
I am free on March 1st to come test ride ALL the 2017 sled's! I'm fine with cheap hotels, buying my own gas and eating gas station pizza for dinner.
Yours truly,

I'd be surprised to see a SC rather than a turbo. Although I've ridden both and the SC is way more fun. But in terms of mpg, reliability, replacement parts, etc I would expect them to use a turbo.from what i heard, Arctic cat is coming out with its own 2 cylindre 2 stroke to replace the suzuki, probably 870 cc, this motor will probably be in the AC linup trail and Yam mountain segment. And Yamaha has a 1098 supercharged 4 stroke to replace the 1100T in the Arctic Cat ZR9000, Chassis is probably going to be from Arctic cat...
thats all i know for now..
