  1. Today
  2. Fingers crossed…I’m picking up a 2026 ZR 858 137 SnoPro tomorrow. Keeping the Assault but just had to have a Catalyst!🤘🏼❄️😜
  3. Well before Christmas the local cat dealer sold through their entire order of 26s, and the 2 truck loads of leftovers they bought from textrons getting out of the sled business sale. Factory only had M sleds left
  4. That’s rough. Hoping the ‘26 treats him better. Going to dealer next Friday to see if we can come to some sort of resolution.
  5. You haven't run into one of the guys in our rinding group, apparently. He bought a '25 858 last year, and it plagued him most of the season with codes and being forced to ride in limp mode. I think he had it in the shop at least 3 times? Fast forward to this season, we were in the U.P. and we made it to Houghton on Day 1 ... had breakfast, and as soon as we were getting ready to head north it threw the code again. Pissed off, he headed over to M&M to have them look at it - and was so pissed off he was debating on just dumping it and finding a new sled. He told us to just go, and he would either limp it back to Krupp's, or he'd be on a new sled and would meet us later in the day. Fast forward 4 hours, we met him right back in Houghton, and he was on a new '26 858 ZR! LOL Well, go figure, the next day we're heading out for a south loop and about 10 minutes into the ride ... HE POPPED THE SAME EXACT CODE. We were joking within our group, "Does Dave have a sidearm on him, because if he does I'm going nowhere near him!" He ended up limping the new sled back to the resort, threw it on his trailer and headed back to M&M in Houghton. They got it fixed this time - something to do with the APV's and the servo motor, and the bracket they're mounted on? Needing to be adjusted (bent) properly. Thankfully the sled hasn't skpped a beat since then, and he's racked up 1800 miles this season. So, nope - you're not alone @soeaster
  6. Fun in the woods if that helps?! lol
  7. "94" ???
  8. LEADERSHIP
  9. But PP had their weapon returned because they are LAW BIDDING We don't need guns at all - CPC wants us to live in fear like USA does
  10. shitty... 🍋
  11. Fucking LIBERAL trying to take guns from LAW BIDDING Citizen - Lucking PP has managed to have these guns RETURNED to LAW BIDDING Citizens WE NEED MORE GUNS and LESS TRANS
  12. Too funny - not sure if this is real but the hate for everything is real Here people are screaming to let TRUMP TARIFF any country for any reason ELON BOTs are going ape shit THis must be VETO by TRUMP
  13. Got the turd torn down last night it’s not as bad as I was expecting it to be. The suspension seemed to fix it self bouncing around in the trailer 😂 assuming it had a block of ice binding it up or something idk. Tunnels bent up a little where cooler mounts up but nothing a bfh can’t fix. Ordered a used cooler, new hoses, bearings and couple wheels for the skid so hopefully she’s back on the trails for next weekend.
  14. OTB….He was going to walk back from Alaska?
  15. Where’s your proof little buddy? Still working on it?
  16. I never lost anything. Prove I did retard.
  17. You already bet they would be out of business once, lost and welched. Sounds like once you pay you are setting yourself up to lose the bet again.
  18. Thing is, I've seen quite a few 858s on the trail and at stops. I've always tried to chat with people riding them and haven't found anyone that has had any issues. Guess I'm just lucky! lol
  19. While I can't wait until they fix the textron mess to have another option there is zero chance I would buy one now
  20. Damn that sucks….thinking about buying an 858 tomorrow….eesshhh.
  21. That fucking sucks. Sorry dude. And fuck that dealer for not doing a better job fighting for you.
  22. Long story.... 2025 R-XC 858 Put 7 miles on it last year and wouldn't rev. Dropped off at dealer, bad servo motor after I finally convinced them to take it for a ride. Rode it one full day after that and season was over, should've been out of break-in but still wouldn't rev consistently. 150ish miles on it at end of season. This year, put some clutching in it preseason and rode it about 40 miles prior to an appointment for '26 reflash. Waited for it and told them it wouldn't rev. They said ride it. ~190 miles. Rode it for the weekend and dropped it off again. Would briefly rev to 7k then fall to 6500 like it was in limp mode. They put stock clutching back on it, no change. After back and forth, cat told them to put injectors in it. Took another week to get them and no change. Another week plus gone. Cat then supposedly had them run through a bunch of things and decided to program a new ECU. Again, another week to get and sled actually ran worse. In the meantime, a buddy's sled went down so he was going to ride my procross (that I thankfully kept) and I was going to ride the 858 in all its 6500 rpm glory. Told dealer to put old ECU back in so I could ride it for the weekend. Picked it up, ran like shit and ran out of gas right after warm up on way to fill up. Got towed, filled up, rode back to cabin which was ~2 miles away. Got back to cabin and gas gauge showed half a tank. We decided to stay in for the night. Went out next morning, started it, looked like someone was dumping gas out of a can underneath sled. Dragged it on trailer, took it back to dealer, spoke to owner and showed him the gas leak. That's the day I rode my buddy's 850 matryx. Told him it's been nearly 2 full seasons with a sled that's never run right. I've been more than patient but told him I was done and that someone needed to make it right. That's where it still sits. It's been almost 2 weeks and haven't heard anything since last week. New ECU was still in 1st stage break-in, but they couldn't run it until the leak was fixed. I'm actually surprised it didn't start on fire while I was riding it. So I've been riding a procross 800 from 2020. Better than nothing but not happy about it. Pissed to say the least.
  23. What’s the issue with your Cat?
  24. Proof is on you now. It's already been proven over and over. You bet on Cat being out of business and I can still buy a cat. So.....
  25. Key word was trip. If that is key he could walk home. Your bet was as dumb as you are. Even worse was your dumbass bet on Cat being a company and now claiming they aren't....or did you pay?
