CR's back second time this week. He sort of says we were getting on to something on TY. But got side tracked In the comments Yellowknife confermes it He says he will give us more soon.
Great there goes any chance of sleeping for the next twenty some days

So in other words, he's saying the people on here claiming to be 'in the know' are blowing smoke.
 

He's hinted at things like that, hiding them in plain sight. And it might be a teaser pic. And he mentioned something about us being close and then we just moved on.
 
My guess is a new nytro with the sidewinder front end on it and the single shot rear suspension.

I am going to the St Germain snow drags and the flyer says they will have the new Yamaha models on display there. Don't know if it would be 2017s or just this years sleds
 
Im not going to lie- if what I said earlier about a motor switcheroo I will probably go poop in their driveway. Will be a cliche manufacturing move to the max.
 
Then they went bankrupt.....

I think the sidewinder was pretty sweet ride. Would love to find one someday. I know there was a cat model that was the same, but it was still sweet. I kinda wish that brand was still around. I always thought of the odd man out, they stood the best chance to be another OE- judging by the amount of them out there.
 
Ok, here's my stab at this. Turbo on the Vector, which is basically an Apex chassis, now with more power & lighter. 200 HP 800 2-smoke in 420 lb. mountain sled...my guess...
 
A VERY high little leprechaun told me this....btw, he rides 6000 miles per year...

More of what I heard too model name prolly be new too for hyper hp sled on new platform.
 
Really hoping for a sub 475lb 160-170hp 4stroke or 2stroke from Yamaha. Been getting some seat time on a '16 800XRS this year and have to admit it is a blast riding something that is so light. Yamaha, challenge your engineers to get this done!!!

Thats not what i read.
He said if someone on the inside speaks they risk throwing away a career at yamaha if caught.
He also implied sometimes insiders give out info to friends they trust, those people then tell that info to friends they trust, so a friend of a friends let the info out which can destroy careers so be careful in what you say if you know.

Yellowknife clearly stated someone on here nailed it. Chris reid replied that was deep.
The reply from chris sounds like another hint to me since it really makes no sense as a reply to yellowknifes statement.
On page 3 deeppow16 took a guess but it was kind of vague. Not too sure he nailed it.
