FWIW the tread is pretty nice, and does a good job of integrating your phone, blue tooth earbuds/headset, and plotting all the members of your group.

You guys haven't seen the picture the new cat gauge yet??

There is no official date yet... 

Rumor puts it around March 15th, but that is as fluid as ramsteds gender..

Mine is the base.  I ride to get away from my phone. Mirrors work just fine to keep track of the rider behind me. My only responsibility on rides.

Even after the web site overhaul, I find it difficult to search through older arcticles….  Any chance you can offer a link?

He was talking to Troy Haverson when he took over what ever position that now is in the new gal. March to May somewhere.

Ouch

Well it will still be new and a lot cheaper than what the 23's will be and it is built. No way to know when this madness will end.

I wonder if Cat knew they were going to struggle with sled output and that is the reason that they didn't offer more options for their 60th Anniversary....

Nailed it! Insider did a story on that subject.

He'll think his vat branded Garmin is the best until cat comes out with a new gauge to compete with doo/pool's then all he'll talk about is how better it is, blah, blah, blah.

There's brand loyal but ramstad takes it to a new level.   They could produce a literal bag of shit and he'd order 3 then tell everyone it's worth the wait to get his because they fit his exact needs and desires.

Not unless it can be taken from one ride to the next. That is why I went with the tread. Will buy a mount for my Alterra 600 when I purchase that. Year round use.

Did Mr. Ramstad take delivery of his '22 ZR 6000 Limited? LOL

Regardless, Ramstad belongs here since his exile on HCS.....

 

 

 

 

 

Wont pick it up till Fall now. Dealer is going to hold it for me. Delivery date is now April 3rd.

That is the 2012 you haven't taken delivery of yet, right?

You have no clue. Take the plastic off your ride and you will see it is less of a new sled than the P cross. Fact! Way above your head.

Not sure if the date is a joke, but the 2012 releases definitely will be again

Butt hurt? Literally!

Lets be frank. There are very few people left who will actually order a new Procross. ALRIGHT....maybe Jim Ramstad. Why would anyone order a Procross chassis when Cat keeps hinting that something new is coming?

Well when the supposed new from other brands is just plastic, why would you fall for it? Will stay with my 2022 as it is proven and still the best looking sled on snow.

GPS $175.00 all day long. <<< I would think that's some good data. You paid way to much!! All my controls are at my flippers also.  6 of my friends today just won the V500  in the UP. Look up Snowball for cancer. 

This shit is comedy gold, can’t even make up shit this funny.

 

Well I have that bag and it sucks! I spent half of what the idiots are going to spend on the new 10. who the F cares Doo or the 1300 POS Poo product. I will have it for years and guess what? It looks great on the sled as well. I have the money. Just wanted to do my dealer a favor. Oh, and that crap you have on your sled, I spent less than 100 on and it just did not perform. I have it for sale. $180 and it is all yours!

Have you even played with the new cluster?? Cart before the horse statement. Well when your stuck in 2012 with the lack luster Cat and the 2013 gauge package built by Yamaha I'd be pissed too.  Cat has be going backwards for years now, their racing has gone to shit no new chassis just the same old shit for 10 years now. Yamaha saved Cat from a fatal blow, Yamaha does not need snowmobiles to make a dollar.      

I am not a gauge guy. Fuel, temp, tack and speed is all I need. I just picked up my Garmin Tread and trail mount for GPS. $600 compared to $1200 and I can take mine with me to my next sled or to my soon to be Alterra 600. Your money but Tesla looks and quality statement for me anyway tells me this is not going to end well. Race? Just won the 500 here in Minnesota 3rd straight. Come back with real important data like how you can set the temp of your hand warmers. Do not care. My controls are at my fingers so I can set them on the fucking fly!

The last time Cat built a 120 sled for Yamaha Cat ended up using their Turbo. Who knows maybe Cat will start using Doo motors. 

As long as it is not the looks, front suspension, quirky body panels and, well pretty much anything from Doo. Not a fan of anything they make. Big new 10 plus inch gauge does not even incorporate GPS. Huge fail. Seen the Lesters saying it was Tesla like. That is saying the quality is piss poor in most eyes.

You'd know better than me.  I heard of money cuts on the team.  He has come out to the hare scrambles sometimes, pretty cool to see.

They are both racing for Arctic Cat. More racers than most know about. They upped the budget by 2 x's  at least if you include snow cross. Must be doing something right.

Interesting how every half wit defaults to gay "humor".  You, Joe and 550 should share a gay old time.

Well, when I get childish responses from you, I just answer back. Just looking at what you call yourself. Not too hard to make it funny at the expense of you. Grow up and quit with the insults and others will follow. Until then, enjoy dropping the soap. Oh, that was not nice. Sorry deep. Forgive me PLEASE! Can't fix your desire to own the best brand of sled, Arctic Cat, but once you do, you will be free. 

As I took my dog out to poop, I heard a distinct, Screw you guys, I am going home. Sounded like it was coming from a guy taking it really deep. New name for him. How does Deep crater sound? Maybe Drive it Deep in me as that is my haven? I like that one a lot!

Explains your vagina.

Explains you loving it in the bunghole. Pretty gross if you ask, EVERYBODY!

You forgot stupid after fat.  

Get banned from HCS again?  You said you'd never come here....

Don't remember saying that. Does mental illness follow you around like a shadow or are you just an angry Fuck for buying the wrong brand of sled? Either way, get some help. Being an asshole does not make you a man.

Can't wait to hear how your little bitch ass cries about the RR being too stiff.  Should just stick with the B-Last as it fits you better.

Well if it is I will get it revalved, but I'm fat and like a firmer ride. Wont be any bitching from me. Oh, I also rode the dealers early release 8000 RR and I would not call it to stiff. Medium compression and 12 on the rebound. Triangle adjusters on medium as well.

Brand loyalty is about as dumb as you.

Unrelated.  Cat 800's are popping like crazy here.  My group used to be all Cat.  Couple new Ctec failures and next year there will be zero Cats in it.  Sad.

I believe every word you say. Not!

Yet, they are in fact faster and there's more of them.

Did you not get the part where I commended you for getting the good engine?  6000 has been a good mill for them, decent power, reliable and trustworthy.  The 8000 thus far, is not.

I have not seen many cat ctec 800"s, but have not seen one go down. Have seen them race the junk 850 from both lower brands and the difference is minimal to say the least. Having to add 50 cc to compete cracks me up! Same for Polaris 650. Why again? Oh wait! To make up for the loss of the hay bailer. Most ridiculous statement I have ever heard!

That's a wise decision, the 800's are junk.

 

Then it makes those mighty 850's junk as well as they are barely faster.
