3 cylinder 2 stroke efi srx motor in a new chassis. ;)!
 

The guys name is Chris, he is the Yamaha moderator on snowest. He runs a couple of high end turbo yami's and has never run anything else. He did say he snowchecked 2 G4 850 Summits for next year...........
A wise man once said, "believe none of what you hear, and half of what you see". Food for thought in this thread... Lol :)
 
that 3 cylinder 2 stroke motor still weighed a ton
Exactly. Not sure why everyone is obsessed with 2 strokes, unless you are a mountain rider. Does anyone really think Yamaha and/or Cat will/can build a 450 lb. wet, 170hp 2s, trail sled for an affordable price?

580-630 lbs. is a nice range for a trail sled, and they should be able to do it with a 4s. If the total weight is equal or close, what advantage does a 2s have? None.
 
He also says when a guy ask: Anything new or has it been mentioned in the speculations ?
He says:I think we all missed the boat for the most part.
Boat engine......
 
The viper and nytro both are 590-610 wet weights ready to ride. So not sure what weight you guys want cut if that's your target
 
He also says this.

Cancelling the Doo,s , but still getting a 2 stroke? V6 maybe?
NO.
Not cancelling my Doos, it is time for me to explore and learn more about 2-strokes here on SnoWest.

But.
I might just sell my Viper and get a new 2017 Yamaha now..

And yes.
I really do mean it.
I think there are going to be a pile of HAPPY yamaha faithful here tomorrow who all collectively say ITS ABOUT TIME."
