Bontz Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Wouldn't surprise me one bit. I wonder what BRP's price tag will be, seeing the Boost models are well over $20K out the door. Imagine what the price tag will be when Polaris goes with the 11" display and the dynamic shocks ... $30K here we come 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crnr2Crnr Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 just what the world needs... tbh, I'd rather see some high revving 440's come back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadaBing444 Posted February 7, 2023 Share Posted February 7, 2023 I'm normally super excited about seeing what the Manufacturer's come up with, but this shitty winter has really put a damper on things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lately the riding season in NWL Michigan is about 3 weeks. Hard to get excited about spending any $ on snowmobiling. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it will, but how much more does it cost to make? You can buy a 40"TV for next to nothing nowadays. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An S4 Indy was going to be my wife's new sled until I rode the Catalyst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smart warmers and GPS would be nice to have, but I don't whether those are worth the extra money for the amount of riding she does in a season. The problem is that I've been concerned about the added weight making the steering a little more difficult (that would be a deal breaker for her). I'd hoped to see EPS on the S4 before pulling the trigger, but after riding the Catalyst, I don't think I need to wait for that day to come. With the Catalyst's easy steering and new riding position, it's the my new number one choice for her. Besides, that means I get to "break it in" for her, and keep carbon from building up on the exhaust valves. By the way, my expectation that EPS would make 4-strokes better for beginner or intermediate riders turned out to be right. The Thundercat and Riot9000 with EPS make you forget about steering - it's so intuitive, you kind forget you're doing it. Your brain turns, and the sled follows where your brain told it to go. Pretty cool. It doesn't have the instant feedback of normal steering, though - kind of like the overboosted power steering in cars from the 70's.
