mnstang Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I heard that the new chassis for the first year is going to be for the race sled, the mountain sled, but not the rest of the trail sleds. But then for something big the following model year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK440 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 That’s great news! Sounds like Cat is finally back to kicking ass and taking names. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say there are back to that yet. They will hopefully have something that they can competitively sell now. Being the cheapest price with old tech wasn’t working for them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were only about a 1,000 less than a lynx when the lynx came here for the first season. Before that it was a lot more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I like it! Lots of 08-11 sno pro vibes along with elements of the newer generation Doos. The sno pro influence makes sense given Brian Dick's involvement with both machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it addresses all the concerns people have had with the seat, gauge, weight and warmth. Bigger than that, hopefully it can still take a beating like a Tijuana hooker Will they kill the b-last and put the 400 in it? Finally something to be excited about.

I like the Blast, but that would make sense. I'll bet they sell more full-sized 400's in a year than 5 years of Blasts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK honestly but with BRP's latest beginner offerings at lower price points I can't see the b-last selling well... and if the Yamaha love affair is over they won't be selling any Venoms. Will be interesting to see how the Textron/BRP venture on the little kids sleds shakes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
