Todd did the sneak peak happen to say the amount of fluids added? i thought in previous years used a designated amount to keep everything even. Did they go with full tanks this year?

They said they went with full fluiids, whatever that means. The full article comes out on Thursday

Yeah I saw it the other day I tried signing up for the sneak peak through maxbits but some reason in the years I ve tried it always freezes up when I click send. If they re doing full fluids that is why the weights are so high on cats. I believe in most cases cat gas tank is 2 or 3 gallons more than most. They re definitely a bit on the heavy side though. I can just imagine what the jag will weigh wow.

Jaguar Z1 Not to bad considering
656.5

 

[clemons]

cats new chassis must be heavy :cn:

Hello Fellow Sledders

Would they be weight spec. for the Arctic Cat Panther 660 4-stroke Touring.

 

[catrrider600]

Wow. I hate heavy sleds. I won't be buying any Arctic Cats anytime soon. The polaris looks good though :div20:

 

[jjb]

This test was done by Yamaha I was there and saw them so take for what it's worth :banana: :banana:

 

[depunz]

It's the chassis on the new Cat's. The Crossfire 1000 is listed at 620 Lbs.

 

[favarcat]

All the Cats (except the F1000SnoPro) and Yamahas listed, all have electric start.
None of the Polaris or Doos listed have it.

To be more accurate, they should be comparing the same type of models.

excpt the f8 lxr weighs more then a rtx, cat should of stuck with there old chasie atleast it was fast and light and not UGLY. jmo.

 

[kevins]

I'm a bit surprised by the weights. I would have thought that there would have been a bigger difference. The Mach Z is only 23lbs heavier than the Dragon.

 

[mainecat]

Cats F holds 12.2 gallons and the FXR model weigh 24 lbs more than a standard.
-37lbs on a F8 without elec start and holding 10 gals.

 

[Marvs660]

LMFAO! Even the Doo 'Gade 1000 is heavier than the Apex. More HP, so what? Lighter is everything when you get stuck in waist deep powder.

Funny last year a rider in our group got his gade 1000 stuck and as 3 of us were pulling it out I said this thing has to be heavier then the apex (also in our group), in response they said no chance and laughed it off...guess they should eat those words.

 

[snofan]

Why would the 600 IQ with CFI weigh 23 lbs more than non-CFI???
