Narrow powerband 600 with xtra stiff suspension, slightly wider ski stance and a seat with a gap in the front to hang your balls off. Sled of the year.

I think someone within the company had a bright idea and sold management on it. That's what it seems like to me. I'm not clear on why the 23 release announcement is almost a secret. They're letting others speak for them, and I suspect that's on purpose. I just don't understand why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much creative to come up with but need to keep people interested in the oldest tech in the industry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they got rid of the Barney design team and BRP highered them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't give anyone the impression that Textron is proud of Cat or fully behind Cat. Again, I ask..... Why would anyone buy one? Doesn't this alone make it seem like a risky purchase? An orphan or dead end product? Edited March 22, 2022 by Ziemann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will make no sense, but he will be thoroughly convinced of it. Perhaps there are 3 or 4 others like him that will also follow suit and buy one. This year however, the saving grace of Textron Snow will be that Doo & Poo cannot deliver enough units. That is the single most logical reason to buy a new AC. Sad as hell.

Mainecat Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Polaris and Doo still can’t build a 2 stroke that stays together for more than 3,000 miles. Look at the ad for used ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f7ben Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Cat is such a massive failure. What a fucking joke. The only decent thing cat has put out in 11 years was a Suzuki 1100 , a Yamaha 1098 and some Fox qs3. Of course all of the above was surrounded by absolute garbage so what was the point. This lost decade for cat really hurts me as a diehard cat fanboi 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would however prefer the 850 etec to the 800ho. I’ve never ridden the patriot 850. My two stroke order of preference would go Cat 1000 850E 800ho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
