Any idea how much lesser depreciation they would have if they didn,t win that award ? I,m guessing they would be worth about 40 % of the new cost after 1 years depreciation, instead of 50 % where they were before this awesome award. Still tough to beat the price of the annual Arctic Cat trailside fire sale specials..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, that’s a good run for a Poo mil if you ask me. Sure but when Cats go down, they usually stay down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take yer sister smallnuts with ya. No...from MN..you know, where Poo's are made. I was just pointing it out. He's a die hard Poo guy. He's had three since 2014. And now, six engines! 2 hours ago, ArcticCrusher said: Sure but when Cats go down, they usually stay down. How ya figure that, Batman? Cat still has the most reliable mil in the business. This is what I see as recommended top end rebuilds over the past 10 years or so, culminating with recent years. For the record, on two strokes, there are NONE i wouldn't drop new slugs in at 5k miles. Poo- 2500-3500 miles (Pre 2015 with "reliability kits" installed @ 1000-1500 miles) Doo- 3500-4500 miles Cat -5k or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably forgotten something. I would assume the XCR is a little rougher ride for an average trail rider compared to the XC? So glad to see that rear scaffolding suspension gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev144 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Wonder what cat is doing, snow check only no in season models. 1 year warranty for the same price as the competition. Seems like a poor choice on the 1 yr especially. I can see trying to clear out their decade old left overs but I know a few cat guys looking at doo/poo because of lack of models and warranty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved my zr sit down chassis as a kid but after 2 PCs one which fell apart in short order I'm glad I'm on the axys chassis now. Just flat out works. Motor just gives it that much more appeal. Fun watching poo take over too. Sorry for the 02zam post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
