That’s no base for a Mach z to be built on unless it’s stronger rotating assembly and bigger turbo Rotax probably have a dozen motor platforms it could use they have 300 HP PWC platforms 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going to name something Mach it better be good. Yamaha did the SRX name justice reintroducing it last year on the model they did. Same with cat and the Thundercat. You realize the shitty cars that were called Mustang and Corvette 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their were far worse Mustangs than Vette's. Polaris should let the Storm name be buried forever. Sorry @XCR1250 No doubt you could make them run.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted February 12, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) I mean if we are really being wishful I'll take a 1000cc+ 2 stroke triple (3tec) with all the modern tech of the 850 on a slightly lowered widebody G4. Now that would be deserving of the Mach name. Edited February 12, 2020 by Highmark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaks are a new Mach being released to compete with the Thundercat/Sidewinder. I don't think we will see any changes to the two strokes other than more 850 turbo options. Will we see a fix for their front end? I think so. Will the XRS finally get the same shock package as the race sled? I doubt it. Otherwise, BNG all the way around. The shocks from the race sled would be overkill. Out of 22 clicks of adjustment I've got my center shock 7 clicks from softest and my rear shock 5 clicks from softest, the fronts are 5 from softest with 3 clicks of rebound. It almost never bottoms. If I'm planning on really pounding some whoops I bump all the compression knobs 3 clicks stiffer, but once you're out of the whoops it's stiff as a board set like that. I'm 6'2" and weight 250lbs. Also the "Mach Z" rumors are coming from an obviously fake photoshopped "teaser ad" that Ski-Doo didn't even post. It's bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a nice trail sled with lots of power I'd wager that 90% don't use a 600 to its full capability let alone 800's and up. Short distance mashes but keeping it pinned for miles doubt it. I know, up in Maine and Quebec blah blah blah. Been there and done it. I did the lake race thing for years, loved it but it's died down biggly.
