I'm a little worried about the issues Polaris has been having too, but I think I'm going to get one since the Catalyst is only a 600. Rather than snowchecking this year though, I'm going to pick up a year-old used one, then I won't feel bad about snowchecking next year when Cat releases the "888." Just need a test ride at some point to make sure I'll like the Catalyst chassis.
I agree completely! Blown clutches, fowling plugs, blown motors, blown belts! We the people need to quit buying junk and being happy with it. Vote with your hard earned money. Send the message!
How much per scratch wouldyou lose under this program?
I don't trade every year, so I don't know what the market is currently absorbing. But it would need to be like autos & ding you for mileage overages and damages. But my point is that I would be hesitant to try a 600 because I fear their residuals will be garbage when the 600s come in for big ones. This would mitigate that. Perhaps even keep residual artificially higher to reward those that try the 600? That expense could be written off as 'marketing'.
I was just joking. The only way i would buy one is for my daughter. I'm sure it's a fun sled and i would ride it for a little bit to try it but that's it. To get one for your dedicated sled, i don't think so. Doubt i want one until they come with boost. Might get one with bigger motor to replace mountain max. It's the spare that never gets rode much.
Sounds like your daughter is getting a new sled next year
Maybe. I have to see them first. I might just see if i can turn up the neo.
Only place near us they'll be is the Jackson Hill Climbs (which won't have demo rides), unless you want to book a ride with Kyle Huestis in Seeley when he has one to ride.
When does he get them? I actually don't even know who he is. My buddy was trying to talk me into 600r for her. I'd rather try a cat. Only thing i don't like is 3 inch and scratchers for her. She doesn't pay attention to keeping thing cool and they are more of a pain if she breaks one. Thought they said 2.6 trenched more and was 10 pound heavier track. We might go to Jackson.
Kyle Huestis is Ridinsnowy and freshies built on Instagram, he is a Black Cats rider as of Haydays last fall. Thought i saw on one of his posts that he's supposed to have at least one by the end of the month.

I have the 2.6" - 146" on my 22 Hardcore and it's a great all around track. Great on hard pack too.
That is why i ordered it for my daughter. Thought about a 154 3inch since it's 10 pounds lighter but what i ordered will be perfect for her. I won't ride it much anyway.
