Zambroski Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Wait, doesn't Doo owe Cat millions for patent infringement? Awww.....Doo guy's are cool though. Anybody that can continue to twist their chassis back into shape season after season until those isoflex bearings fry up and the crank runs out of tolerance is the fuckin bees knees! Hey..a DIY...what tools do you boys use to bend and twist your chassis back into shape? I used a cut off broom handle with a rounded end, crow bar, 5lb hand sledge and onoccasion a come-a-long wench. LOL! Faggots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are still paying for Capt. Home Depot and his idiotic ideas. Two poor winters after him didn't help either. But I find their sled more to my liking than my Doo was, even being a bit less "refined". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rump-rider Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Damn. Ski-doo should have put a patent on the idea of an 850cc motor. Revolutionary! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This and let the number cost cutting department build the product. They could have spent $200-400 up front and made a much better product.

Because the extra cc's were needed it to fix their crank oiling issues with the 800. But as an added bonus: IT'S THE ALL NEW FIRST EVER 850!!!! BETTER THAN THE 800!!

Hey look a dual injected 850 2-stroke! http://www.supertraxmag.com/article.asp?nid=3120 We're guessing that Cat's long-awaited Dual Stage Injection (DSI) 800 is coming in MY2018. Same shit they have been guessing for 4 years now . none of these bozos know anything . Shit , AC probly doesn't even know where the hell that motor is right now.

Rw06GT Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I'm on my 4th procross chassis sled, 12xf, 14 and 15 turbo vipers and now the sidewinder. The improvements made with Yamaha's involvement are quite noticeable. The sidewinder finally has close to Yamaha japan build quality. Assembly could still use some improvement as I found a few loose fasteners but I always go over sleds after the first ride and can't say any have been perfect including a couple of Jesus sleds.
