No weights.... We all know the reason they aren't posted. We wanted a light sled. Not a mountain abortion! Has arctic cat not listened to the riders? We have been waiting patiently. I've bought a new cat every year since 05. Tomorrow I order my Pro!!!!! Kinda mad I waited all year only to be let down by a company that did not listen.

Not to judge these new Cats too soon without riding one, but, I think they will be kicking some as$. I'm sure there is some weight loss there and they should outperform the current Cat M's which are already great machines.

WELCOME.. My new PRO riders to the now DARKSIDE... You will love your new PRO'S they do everything you ever wanted a sled to do and more... And don't be fooled by hp #'s cuz it takes alot more than a 170hp to out do a PRO... And if you can really ride it will take a turbo to over come a PRO... So, WELCOME ALL of you heart broken cat guys and gals, TOO THE NEW ERA OF SLEDS THE ONE, THE ONLY, PRO RMK.......

Why is everyone in such a twist over HP and weights not being posted? This is a brand new chassis that NOBODY has seat time on. The 2011 Pro RMK is by most counts an excellent sled, and that is owed to its ability to get on top of the snow and its agility... but it ONLY MAKES 143hp! OMG! You guys probably buy diesel trucks based on horsepower too.

I don't understand why the spindles are that big. They look like the are 18 inches or more. How will those things not get smashed when your sidehilling or boondocking? You'll have to take a extra set with you just in case you smoke em on a rock, tree, and/or stump. I hope these sleds perform like no other.

actually if you were to read the latest dynotech article (i forget which magazine) it states that the pre-production pros were in the 140s the production models are at 153. Just stating facts not trying to start a war over here.

Totally redesigned what more could you ask for? I think they look and will outperform a poo but we will see I guess, good luck to those who switch either way.

From my extensive time studying the pics on this forum, I can say without a doubt, that the new Arctic Cats will be terrible. And I have a degree in "Picture Studying" form the university of "I Spend Too Much Time Talking Out My A.S.S" so there's not even any need to actually ride them. Boo to AC for introducing a complete new line up without first consulting with ever dumb schmuck on this forum that probable couldn't ride their way out of wet paper bag.

Lets all get on the hater train.

Not to mention a turbo M Chassis. Will be a great platform for those guys who want to run a turbo 4 without having to spend an additional $6000 to put a kit on with gauges etc.

I wouldn't say Cat dropped the ball. Pretty cool stuff I think!
