Do any of you guys have any ideas of what we might see in mid season releases. Let me know just wondering. Thanx, Rich

I would think just the f6..someone else said a mtn something...which is probably true also.

 

[lyonrt]

I hope an F6 thats what I ve been waiting for as long as it has the right H.P.

Dan, any word on how inventories are doing? Mid-season release timing will be impacted if there are a lot of sleds sitting around...Marc

 

[ods dan]

well, I think there shouldn't be any 900's or F's

But they were trying to push zl8's and 6's and 2 other models..don't remember.

 

[rev them up]

What do u guy's think of a early release
1300 4 srtoke?i think we will see it along
with a f6...just quessing.

 

[lyonrt]

I read something about an F1 1000 in a firecat that would rip..

 

[SabercattF7]

How will they get a 1,000 CC's into a F cat frame??

I would bet on an announcement of a mega 4 stroke, but not a mid season release. Marc

Not to sure the 7 is pretty tight but thats what I read at the bookstore while my wife was xmas shopping just wish I could remeber what mag. Rich

good point. if you measure the distance between the frame rails in a fcat and comapare them to that suzuki you will probaly find it wouldn't fit. I think cat is up to something. OPTION:

1. but the big bad 4 stroker in a zr chasis. hell u can get a tcat engine in that thing, it will fit.
2. New engine style. Hey they already came out with a "new" 2 stroke engine style why not a 4.
If they were gonna do it in a 4 it would have to be a "V" V twin (blade wanna "B") or V4, its the only way to stuff it in there. h34r:

IF any one happens to be sledding in the "thief river falls area" please take your camera with you. You might just see some plain black fcat with no decals and a hood scoop for that turbo intake :lol:

 

[zr900snowpro]

no to the 4 stroke cat yamaha sell are falling fast on the rx 1 so cat said they are going to take a wait and see. dealer here in MI. has already got 6 rx 1 back or people backed out of snow checks!!!

 

[madmike]

i still think a f-6 is not practical,i think it will be something not produced yet, the 4 stroke performance model,,(gixxer)

 

[F5firecatsnopro]

I also think they wont make and f6 why would then need to its not like the f5 wont already brat 600s and i do agree that they will probably come out with a four stroke that is more performance like the rx1 but it will be way better cuz its a Cat

 

[Roadwarrior]

F-6 EFI and that's all for now.

 

[mainecat]

F6 EFI
660 Turbo..... 100-105hp
thats why Cat wants to move the ZL's out! The 660 turbo will kill the ZL lineup.

 

[Big Fire Chief]

dealer says that the 800 firekitty isnt far away..i tryed to peer for more info...he says "take a look under gulla or tuckers hood...its not a d and d kit"..smiled at me and walked away .... i talked to him about it a little while longer but he just gave me the smile and "ull see" so 800 is being tested ...i still say a 600 f cat is on its way EFI...my dealer also sponsored arron scheele and judnick...of course no longer with cat..but im sure they new whats going on too...so i would say either 2 years from now or a next year..but no early option for the 800...will be intresting..if they can fit the bigger and bigger motors into the f cat chassis with the laid down design they will rule every single class...

 

[F7_Ditch_Jumper]

as long as they can get the air out of the coolant lines before the race starts

 

[Thumper]

Again........ F6 fuelie with neat hp and at this point the 4 stroke does not fit in F chasiss. Not speculation. End of story.

 

[lyonrt]

Do you think they will announce the releases in the begining of january like last year?
