White tunnel...

[RacinJason15]

Does anyone know how the white special edition cats hold up and are they really dirty? Debating on getting black because white just doesn't seem like it will be easy to keep clean!???

make the same promise I made to my buddy who ordered the white procross f1100 turbo...you will be sorry and it will show everything! he wished he had listened..

I dont agree.I have been keeping an eye on the white ProCrosses and they seem to be holding up just fine as far as looks.Some early ones which had black plastic under the white look bad but the tunnels are fine.Yes they will show dirt but it cleans off very easily and is much easier to maintain than a polished tunnel.I will be finding a tunnel wrap for mine just to be proactive.The runningboards are aggressive enough that your feet are actually only in contact with the raised edges so only those will wear.

We owned them..I'm pretty sure you didn't...they end up looking like crap on the trail...and cats paint is garbage..black hides alot....the light colors signed to show everything

Why can't Yamaha just allow the blue plastic and black tunnel as an option??? Isn't this what most want vs. the blue & white....

 

[cannondale27]

I agree black/blue would be easier to maintain and if given choice yes that is what I would buy.

SJ.Even if dirty.To me the white and blue looks way cooler than the red and black. You are entitled to your opinion. Of course I dont own one but I see them everyday.

Maybe Yamaha will contact dealers in the next few months, asking if the owners (Pre-ordered) would like to change their color option to a blue/black. Wouldn't THAT be something.........

Because its a ARCTIC CAT and ARCTIC CAT quality when it comes to the exterior look and finish.

The white looks even better when its peeling off..... or when its so thin you can see threw it...typical Cat.

If you take pride in your ride it takes about 30 miles for brake dust to make it way on the tunnel. Looks horrible after a days ride. I would consider black for sure.

My plan is to take the sled apart and clear coat the tunnel so it cleans easy.. white cars clean up so a tunnel should of it is cleared. I might paint the arms and spindles white right away too

I'm getting white and getting it powder coated black....I have been ridding Yamaha since 09 so I'm use to fixing things to make them right ...they sure won't.....

I think bottlerocket has it rite,the people that use the brakes hard are going to have issues with hot brake pad dust ( sintered metal pads). I've seen it on ski-doo's the damage it does.

As I said before, I prefer the raw tunnels. They look so sweet too with some elbow grease and Simichrome polish.
