Looks like rumor about the 850 Etec are true. Should be at least 170 HP. Hopefully it stays together.

I heard 178.

You know, I have to give our doo friends some credit. They without a doubt have the best accessories on the market. That starts with the BV2S helmet and then extends to their Linx system. Those snap on accessories are slick making a diverse and customization sled. Same with Poo in their acquisition of Klim. Klim is one of the best suits I've ever experienced! A/C has had good advertising in their cloths for years. It's hard to find a A/C guy not wearing an A/C jacket.

I really think Yamaha needs to step up their game in the accessory arena as well. They have some good looking jackets and I'm seeing more of them worn, but I'm not overly impressed with the design. Many lack vents and pockets which are two things I'm looking for in my suit. Yamaha bolt on accessories are kinda lame when comparing to Doo. Sure they have some bags and the turbo is awesome. But what about having a bolt on trunk. Modern machines have no on board storage. How about fuel tank. Take the Powderkeg as a template or go partner with them as they did with MPI and A/C... Everyone that has checked out my sled loves the powderkeg for its functionality and fit/finish.

i agree better jackets etc..nothing beat the bv2s helmet though

I do like this horrific photoshop that popped up. Sort of an MXZ/CanAm Spyder cross.

That thing just looks like it could tear something apart

That thing looks awesome! What do you think they have in it for the motor?

By the way the front looks, something to bring in lots of air. Sorry guys, but I really like the look of that!

Ok. Still looks similar last year skidoo. This looks to be 850 E-tec ?

Skis are the same and that's about it....

Why would it? Has anyone but Cat built a large twin that is worth a crap?

No. Truth is, Cat has the most reliable 2 strokes on snow. I have not heard about near as many horror stories with the 600 Ctec and the 800 Suzuki as the Polaris and BRP 2 strokes. I know a guy with a crossfire 800r with 10,000 miles and the motor has never been apart.

New video is up!

Looks like a Viper chassis to me. I just hope it's more than just a factory turbo...

New Arctic sled, skinnier plastics and led headlight?
