New 2017 Yamaha Sleds...

The new "VENOM"

A dealer who is out at the dealer meeting in Canada says that Apex isn't changing this year. He also said that a new motor in a viper chassis "not a viper though" that has a very high top speed 110+ .

110+ I certainly hope it's faster than that, my 98 SRX went faster than 110.

There are no grated grill on hood like previous 4strokes in cat chassis. Could be no or little radiator and a larger heat exchanger

Or a inter cooler, ; )

Not much from the snow bike crowd either........weird is right

No point in talking about something that isn't coming right, ; ) Even though AC already showed it at Hay days.

100 mph is the new 110 mph

2nd video is now out mostly trail footage, ; ), still believe that there won't be more than 1 model release. : )

Really don't know what to make of this. One would hope they are teasing with a new Apex-ish hyper-sled (150+hp), based on the brashness of these clips. I can't pinpoint that engine sound, although it does sound like it's revving above 9 grand- so that's good. But that new side-by-side 998cc triple is only about 112hp, and I don't hear any turbo or super whine.

So you think it's a cat chassis and Yamaha everything else?

What's wierd is the difference in sound between 6 sec to 9 sec there's short sound clip sounds like two stroke in there I mean I'm sure I'm wrong and dreaming but just different sound for like a sec !

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

That will be good. They can't make their 800 stay together so making it even bigger with more HP utta help right. LOL

I am beginning to think the new Cat big dog and new Yammi might be one and the same........

I thought that way right from the start of all this!

That can't be I told 2 stroke. I was told on here a few days ago when I was having fun trying to guess what Yamaha might come up with for their new sled to let it go. Yamaha would never use another manufacturers engine. If Yamaha wants to sell more sleds then slapping an AC 2 Stroke in a Viper would instantly sell more sleds since the 2 stroke market it much bigger. The AC 2 stroke sounds like a good engine and they wouldn't have to spend any R & D money on it. Personally I wont have anything but a 4 stroke so I don't care either way. I'm just interested to see what they got up their sleeves.

Could it be the rumoured Cat 800 Ctec-2 is a Yammy built motor that would go in both sleds?? Hmmm that would be interesting. I think this new one is a turbo tho.
