I thought marketing weight wars were long over on trail sleds we want amenities and those weigh. If that’s your motivation purchase a dinky 500 with no amenities. Weight and powder I get but on a performance trail sleds middle weights are fine with me.

If you never had eps you don’t know what you are missing 2s or 4s. If you have had eps you wonder why all sleds don’t have it. Eps just makes front end handling much more forgiving especially with aggressive carbides. I like eps and want it available on all sleds. Just like rider forward who...

IMO every trail snowmobile should have the option of eps. I remember when cars didn’t have power steering, power brakes and power windows as standard. Now those features are standard. I had a buddy that bought a stick shift Toyota maybe 6 years ago didn’t want power anything ended up having to...

Yamaha was on to a good suspension with the EC Ohlin mono. Problem the mono was radically different from 2 shock rear suspensions the users didn’t know how to adjust for butter smooth studder bumps. Then the Nyto was left out in the cold wasn’t developed to be an outstanding bump sled. Imo I saw...

Nope no idea where you got that interpretation. When snowmobiling I prefer to bipass plowed to the ground trails for logging trucks. Always on my best behavior thru logging zones a stroke of a pen and logging companies can chase snowmobiles out. I give logging equipment all the time and room to...

Rx 1 ton kicked off the 4s performance market segment but didn’t really get going until the Apex was released in 2006. Got to say the rear exhaust was cool for its time. 👍

Lots of 14 to Big Bay is in and out of logging areas and are plowed maybe that condition can be bipassed.

True but the bright side is new trails and we can deal with grooming later.

That’s good news!😆

Who knows? I’m very happy I’m set new 2019 900t Enduro March deal.

Imo good luck trying to figure out snowmobile market share via hard numbers. The mags go at it every now and then and who knows where they get their numbers. The market shares I have seen broken out: 1. Skidoo 2.Polaris 3. Arctic Cat 4. Yamaha Broken out by dollars and unit numbers world wide...

Always a time to move on with improvements can’t stand still forever. 2nd year sled always better.

I agree seemed like a no brainer. I guess Yamaha wants to sell SW not Vipers. Vector was same way black sheep to get improvements that seemed logical.

How does that happen are available units that limited? How do Yamaha dealers make a living seems more like an internet sale all the dealer does is dispatch the unit after prep? Definitely won’t be an over stock of Yamaha snowmobilers in the foreseeable future.

Stretch said grooming has been temporarily suspended. Been too warm but could get going again.

Only blow out I ever had was Cooper.

Just commenting on what I read no way to know if article is accurate or not and I said snow tech info. If Yamaha has a 2023 Viper and AC does not who cares buy Yamaha not much difference that we know at this time 7000 or Viper. I have no horse in the race could careless what actually happens...

1049 Yamaha 4s is definitely coming back in the AC 7000. I’m not clear what this will do to Viper sales or if Yamaha cares since their engine? I know AC fans liked the 7000 a lot didn’t like losing as a AC product. Ac delaying 2023 production until until all 2022s are out the door. All snow tech...

No one seems interested in Cat or Textron would have sold. Idk if Yamaha relationship comes with Cat?

Auto industry isn’t going to get any better soon. Government is pushing EVs and just aren’t any yet. I’m perfectly happy with my ice vehicles and every vehicle I ordered since 99 was a spec order. My vehicles are good don’t need one for years to come. Price ain’t right see ya. Lol.
