stinkipinki Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I'm not going to lie, Yamaha blue is still sexy AF. It's sexy on thier GP jetskies. It's sexy on thier dirtbikes and quads. It's sexy on the all blue SRX. If Yamaha get to use Catalyst, an all blue one will be sexy af. Cat will be forced to make an all green Catalyst, with black side panels, ext. Would love to see that.

LOL yup, copied the laydown engine, tubular front structure, tall spindle a-arm suspension, sliding front arm/tsl rear arm skid, battery-less efi, driveshaft mounted brake.. Speaking of copying, how did poo's copy of the laydown engine work out? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bontz Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 "It has a very Polaris-y feel to it" .... 'nuff said And although I am, and always will be, a fan of the Greg Spaulding engine ... it sure seemed to work a lot better as a Suzuki laydown than it does as a C-tec. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the epa is causing most of the issues trying to make the hp they need to make and they had to much invested in the 800 not to use it. I think that was the reason for the cc bump from the other 2 and cat is doing next. Hopefully that will solve their engine issues on the 800. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now your Polaris is old news, with a old chaincase, on a 8 year old chassis. My son has a new Polaris with belt drive and a turbo. Not sure why your all fuzzy over belt drive, just because it's the first trail sled??? It's not new tech by any stretch of the imagination.

Belt drive isn't new, doing it really well is. Polaris uses alot more components. The Polaris belt drive, and chaincase are outdated. But im sure they will 'Copy Cat' 🤑 , Cat.

J. Jackson Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Trying to remember the name of a low volume mountain sled made in the 2000's. Ckx or something similar. I thought that they used a belt drive system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL For a Yamaha guy, you sure bleed a lot of green Everyone knows the DD was shelved because it won't work in modern rider forward chassis. Doo has copied the tsl rear from AC both doo and poo copied the cast aluminum bulkhead from the RX1ton, poo went as far as coping the integrated chain case, and even yami's brake setup that makes you take it off before opening the chain case. Most of the poo croo has amnesia when it comes to the copy cat 900 and 755 confusion disaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
