In my opinion cat has the best suspension for pounding on. The doos ride beautiful but they're a little bit too much like an LTD Brougham for me. Doo knows their target audience. They’re the Toyota Camry of sleds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird but, even my XRS rode so nice it was like being disconnected from the trails. It's hard to explain to some but, that instant feedback from the ground makes a difference. WIth my doo, it was almost delayed...like it was compensating for me. I can see how many find this a wonderful trait. I found it uncomfortable at times. I want to know how to adjust my riding before I get into trouble. I don't want the sled to try and help me decide. What happens if it can't? Pucker factor! I rode my buddies Cat RXC for ten miles. That's all I needed to see. I can see why many don't like the Cat ride too though. Trail feedback means harshness. 3 minutes ago, 168hp CAT 800 said: Doo knows their target audience.

When I got home he called and asked how about this Friday. I only need a travel cover which I ordered in and told him I don't need registration #"s ($40). The wife has a unit that can make numbers,decals etc in all sorts of colors in marine waterproof vinyl.
