- model year 2027 sleds...
yeah... and Cat's race sleds used to be called Sno Pro's... and look at the Catalyst Sno Pro's, nothing special there right? so there's that I always thought 'Racer Replica' was stupid, still do. At lest the TH68 sleds were racer replica's, of an actual racers sled. Same with the old 7C replica sleds. if people want e-start, the fancy gauge, a testicle warmer and hurt feeling meter and the manufacturer can profit from those items, as an accessory GREAT!!! making them mandatory, no thanks on fancy or limited edition models like the EXT or new ElTigre... sure, put all the most profitable crap possible on them and charge $20k plus to those who want them. the RXC consumers can purchase to my knowledge has the same shocks, bracing, brake and 'race' bits as the race department sleds, plus the price premium stuff. personally I don't need the GPS stuff, as the vast majority of my riding is on trails I know like the back of my hand. speedo/tach on the old SP's is fine, 720 got a temp gauge. the gauge on the 21 RXC, works great... tach/speedo/temp is where it's been kept since it showed up here. 'Z' was bitching in our group text about that the sport gauge on his '25 RXC doesn't have a temp readout recently and apparently the light comes on at 170 degrees... wtf? idk if he added a separate temp gauge as I did yet but holy shit... 170? to me... RXC, XCR & MXZ (comp) are and should be the consumer sleds that are the most capable and more importantly the most DURABLE for ditch bangers, racer wanna-be's and people who might actually ride them to the sleds true capability. I'd say most of these specific sled types are 'all that' these days. a somewhat local dealer and I were discussing Lynx sleds a while back, he had a bunch of potato farmers buy them when they came out and they hated them because they were so stiff, and what he basically told me was... so were the XRS's most of them traded in. as you said, they wanted the shiny new thing with the cool stickers and colors... which is what a lot of the things we're discussing actually is.- model year 2027 sleds...
She is a real badass chick and has raced snox, XC, and hillclimbs. She at one time was an engineer at Cat, like real deal engineer, but I'm not sure if she is still there or on contract or what. Haven't talked to her in a while. If it has a track and skis, tires, and/or handlebars, she can wheel it. Married to an former racer too. Brother is Steve Martin from the old WSA days.- Climate Change - Midwest warming fastest in lower 48
Buddy says all they can do on the North shore is pack the trails for now. One guy had to drop his drag because he couldn't pull it. 6-8' drifts. Climate change.- Today

Typical garbage Cats aren’t going to finish the Iron Dog. They have returned to Nome to work on their unreliable junk Catalysts. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1060020410807917- model year 2027 sleds...
Yeah and they have a 3 option of 2 year warranty, no eps and a cash discount. I think was a 1000 bucks. Country cat had posted the program. Good program imo to get the eps out there in mass- model year 2027 sleds...
I guess on all models that have an EPS option you can choose between paying MSRP and a 3 year warranty or the price of the non EPS model and get a 2 year warranty.- model year 2027 sleds...
I think she was as well but I wasn’t sure. If I remember right when she was working there she was used a lot to get technical information out to the public as well.- model year 2027 sleds...
She raced and if I remember right she was an engineer at one time for cat before it got all textroned. I think she writes a lot of articles for ai now- Justin Trudeau is Doing a Great Job
POOR Donny will now have to replace the entire Supreme Court as his TARIFFS are not legal - Who would have guess a tariff that can go up for just he way you looked at Trump - I didn't like the way He looked at me so I gave 10% added tariffs Worst Negotiator ever- model year 2027 sleds...
120:- model year 2027 sleds...
Did anyone else notice that the 120, that was supposedly on its farewell tour last season, is back?- model year 2027 sleds...
Definitely works for insider but might be doing stuff with cat, I thought they used her for a brief period in the reveal video yesterday with the other ambassadors so might be an ambassador type person also. Kinda like how I should be the JAG ambassador.- model year 2027 sleds...
The mxz and xcr have always been regular sleds. They are basically the equivalent of a "zr", anyone can buy them and they weren't specifically race sleds. The RR got watered down, but it's right in it's name, REPLICA, so that never bothered me, it was never an actual race sled. The rxc was a race only 600 sled for cross country racing. Not very long ago. It still is in some instances but it's also an 858 with e start and g8 gauge now 🤦🏼♂️. I get it, there's a certain crowd that wants to think they're billy badass but they aren't, but they buy machines so the manufacturer gives them what they want.. but I'd just rather have them keep calling these things RR because they just redefined what an rxc is and like someone said, they almost have to rename the true race sled now.. which is something we've done over and over in history because it's a cycle of these wannabros chasing the race sled image. As for gauges for non racers, the g8 is awesome. Buddy has one. I'd love it. Not sure if I'd love the price tag. But if I didn't get the g8, is be most happy with 2 analog gauges like from the 90's, what was wrong with that? That's all I need and prefer over the cheaper digital gauges. I don't know if it'd even be cheaper at this point compared to the sport gauge but I'd still prefer it. My sport gauge doesn't even give actual coolant temp, just a bar graph with like 4 or 5 bars and it's always 3/4 way to hot which is unnerving but seems to be normal for it.- Climate Change - Midwest warming fastest in lower 48
Wow. This snow is so heavy it's hard on equipment, and that's a lot of it! Dang climate changes again ruining our winters.- model year 2027 sleds...
Idk, I'll check the catalog later... have a new problem to solve first edit... SX https://www.countrycat.com/arctic-cat-2602-889-cylinder-master-9-16-cyclone Catalyst RXC https://www.countrycat.com/arctic-cat-3602-394-cylinder-master-notched-stealth-service Procross RXC https://www.countrycat.com/arctic-cat-3602-293-cylinder-master-notched-stealth-service caliper and rotor on SX are also completely different and... I just ordered a new Wilwood M/C for the 5hundo for $100 good thing I didn't start riding it with no fluid in the reservoir... sigh- Anyone else getting parts, looking at their new sled or prepping their machines yet?
Me this morning removing Rox gauntlets Me discovering the brake master cylinder is nearly empty and there's no fluid on the caliper- model year 2027 sleds...
Does the SX still have the old style Hayes master? The RXC, whether race or civilian models, all have the race rotor and better pads but there is a step above what they come with. That’s like a $750 pad and rotor set. I’m pretty sure the cross country uses the same master that all the cats are currently using. Idk I can’t get close enough to them to see it, look up Austin Excells video from Salisbury on YouTube, I put about 25 sled lengths on him in the tight shit and he was ski to ski with me after the first 1/4 mile straight. I think my sled is tired I had to take a bunch of weight out to get my rpm back and it’s still 10-12 mph down on what it used to be, I just ordered pistons.- model year 2027 sleds...
Don’t quote me but I believe she raced RMSHA and some COR. I thought she worked for cat but I see now her profile says Arctic insider- Climate Change - Midwest warming fastest in lower 48

the snow there in the spectators area and outside of the track seems rather lacking and quite filthy @krom... isn't that a ski hill/casino or something? is it from the f'ng parking lot? Night 1 R1 H1 H2 R2 H1 H2 ProLite Final Pro Final- model year 2027 sleds...
not just Cat make estart, gauge and gizmos an 'option' on base and performance sleds... not mandatory. see above... not everyone wants or needs the additional shit. tach, Speedo temp gauge... Done this... racer model should also get the same Hayes setup as the SX and Poo CC get this goes back to the RR (racer replica) nonsense. I disagree to an extent as the XCR 9R or MXZ 850 Comp aren't racing either, nor is the XCR 650 just put the RxC back in storage yesterday as it's fully sorted and broken in and drug the ole 5hundo home. just riding it around the yard for 5 minutes made me smile.- model year 2027 sleds...
What is her background anyway, is she an ex racer? I've noticed she does a lot for Arctic Insider - model year 2027 sleds...
