Why not start the rumors now. I say BNG from all four manufactures to dump the surplus. Basically replacing the graphics on all the 2019, adding $200 to the MSRP, and selling them as 2020's.

Any other thoughts?

Don't bother pre-ordering, end of year 19's are already discounted for Doo, the rest soon to follow.
Wait til after this weekends rain/warm temps as most trails south of Green Bay, WI will close and well be back to all riding the U.P., manufacturers can't ignore that.
Heck, Green Bay had it's camper show last week and the Boat show in 2 more; guys would rather spend dough on things they can actually use. Manufacturers have to act fast with rebates.
2 days ago I saved $2,300 for a 19 that the pre-order guy paid (If he got a decent deal) 59 days ago.

Your correct on the $200 increase on a $13,000 sled though, not bad though only 1.5% increase.

The big question is what will Yamaha and AC release in 2020 and lots of speculation. Yamaha I really have no idea what will be released but will release something for 2020. AC more Alpha ,Polaris and Doo BNG and inventory reduction promotions.

A bunch of pictures over on Totally Yamaha, along with a bunch of discussion on if it's real or not.

Naw that was Fake News just a wrap on an Alpha somebody fooling around. FB was a real deal Yamaha leak which is very rare. I heard Japan was tooling up something a year ago but what? February is when leaks start to happen and it is curious no new OEM Agreement has been announced that should have happened long ago.

More tech. Turn by turn GPS with great big screen from the factory. More handlebar mounted suspension tuning. Somebody will soon begin using carbon fiber.

The Yamaha & Cat supply & R&D agreement expires this spring. No news on a renewal, expansion, or termination.

OEM Agreement had 5 year term due for renewal in 2019 no public announcement of a new agreement. Not sure why but Textron as new owner didn’t sign original agreement and no idea if they want to enter into another agreement. I would suspect there will be a renewal but just my opinion. They both can pump the sunshine pump about each other but a new agreement is where the track meets the snow.

When at the Dealer this week I saw what appeared to be Textron ATV crates outside in all black and the words Textron in boring plain white text. I am surprised they would use all black as the main color as it is more expensive than white, will get hot as a bugger inside and the logo just looks blah.
Looks like a marketing opportunity.
