Oh my GOD!!!!!!!! I thought you guys were just being funny I just had to look at lineup - this will take 15 more sessions with my shrink to forget.
On the bright side you can rotate the throttle 180 degrees and use finger throttle method, This will work well if you accidentally look down at your sled and pass out The blind guy that rides you out of the woods 2 up will have less trouble driving with the REACH AROUND method
Also the can is 4 lbs lighter this year so now the sled weighs in at -35 lbs or 10 lbs full of fuel.

Mountain guys get a 174x3 track, extended chaincase, new skis, new muffler, new front end, new dess system, lightweight coolers and a 4 year warrantee. People were whining about the yellow color, within 2 days BRP added a matte black. At least they give people what they want. For the first time in 20 years I wont be on a Yamaha.

Thank God I'm still colour blind. The pics I saw before the site crashed reminded me of Little Tykes toys.

The new Mc-doo is ugly and so is the blue and orange viper. The viper is a bit worse.

Think the brands are trying to get the younger crowd In it more with these colors from cat, yami, and doo. Most certainly arent for the 40+ crowd. If you want o pull in the kids make a cheaper model with crazy color schemes, and a 600hp. My .02.....
As a side note I found the name of the new 174 from yamaha, and the full advertisement for the xrs to bring I the young crowd.

Not sure what they were smoking. I always liked the normal yellow and black but this yellow is just plain ol ugly. The orange and black is a little better but still not the prettiest.
I'm in my 20tys and they don't do anything for me. Can't stand the new blue and orange viper either.
