Sheesh, looks like an XP covered in green. At least they put attention to the chassis that Ski Doo hasn't on their XP.

Magnesium chaincase, bracing between motor and clutch, beefier bulkhead. However the Cat motor choice is not appealing at all. No 600?

haha you guys make me laugh. You pick on me so I jokingly make a comment on these "beautiful" new arctic cats and now I get bashed for it?

No Indy, you're awefully opinionated for your age that excessive playful banter gets boring and tiresome.

At your age I though Polaris was the greatest thing around, then I grow up. The remaining four brands are good or else they would have disappeared with Scorpion, John Deere, Kawasaki, Sno-Jet, Rupp, Jet-Ski, Allouette, Chaparral, etc. They each have there strengths and weaknesses. You can like Polaris and they are a good sled, may next one could be a Polaris, but acknowledging a different brand's strength can make the playfull banter more fun for everyone.

There was a sled that looked like this way before a DOO!!! Can't think of it???? I know there are some of you that know the answer.

But.. I never bashed the new cat's except for saying making a completly white sled is completly insane....? Where in my comments did you see me say "those arctic cat's blow up all the time" "those arctic cats handle the worst" "those arctic cats are the slowest on planet earth" ??? I never did because it's not true. Making a comment on a color choice does not sound like bashing to me. The 2012 polaris switchbacks (non pro-r's) have ugly color choice imo too.

So he's allowed to say these things but i'm not? Is my point proven yet?

This room is about the 2012 cats. Not about what he said she said. If you dont want to talk about the cats then go back to pre-school.

If you have remarks about the cats or useful knowledge or questions then ASK

Back off indy. I am stating stats specific to the new cats. Not generalized "cat sucks" statements!!

I'll give you a hint! Karpik is just as important to the industry as Richard (can't use short name or it gets clipped) and Audrey Decker!!!

I really like the looks of the 2012 cats. Don't like the 1100 engine though, not a very smooth engine in comparison to Yamaha. Would like to see a spec on the weight. 2013 will yield some new engines for sure. The retro cat's are just plain hot looking.

Where would have cat come up with the idea for a retro?? lmao..... I guess might as well be a strong 4th place......

I think everyone is just tired of every other comment on each thread about the new arctic cats coming from you and they are all basically the same - you don't like them and even if they came with a coupon for 3 new free Polaris' you still wouldn't find anything you liked about them. We get that. Your constant replies just makes it hard for there to be a real conversation on here about the topic, which is the new arctic cats.

What's different about the engines compared to the 2011s? How is this chassis going to ride different from the twin spar? How much lighter are they (if at all)?

The look is incredible, better than anything else out there imo, just wondering what is different underneath. Best looking Cats since the ZRs, I think.

I would love to get my hands on xf800 high mark. Just wish it had the sno-climb chasis. 2013 will have the new engines for sure, but I do like the line up and chasis.

The bearcat set up for grooming should be a hot commodity. Love the factory idea.
