In the past, was the HCR more heavy than the M8?
thats not so light.
213 Kilograms (kg) = 468.6 Pounds (lbs.)
213 Kilograms (kg) = 468.6 Pounds (lbs.)
what was the 10-11-m8 for weight ??? and I think if the clutches are worked out the chain case will finally get HP to the track. I hope they used an older reverse cam with a reverse notch like the HiTech kits. If it has the same i old silencer in it thats easy,,,, with an HPS can to take at least 20# out
The HCR was lighter my 09 they claimed was 458lbs dry.
ummm that better be full to the brim with fulids,lunch and extra 2 gallons of gas attached.:scared::scared:

I can't believe they won't post the weights.

255 kg = 562 lbs :face-icon-small-con

Dang, 561lbs for the 1100 162.
Yeah I agree.... but actually 545 or whatever for the turbo 4 is a good start, my apex even after all the lw goodies was around 625+/- and thats why its gone to greener pastures. Mountain sleds need to be light, 400 ish with good power (around 200) and yeah sleds that light will fold up like a pretzel if ya smack um,and run race gas, but thats part of the game, and just like any good racecar ya just repair um and don't sweat it. Its why my mod sled is mostly carbon fiber, high dollar,yeah but even with outdated chassis most guys are stunned how easy it is to ride. I ride a pro most of the time and 430ish is a good weight,needs more power but for pull and go not bad.
I was hoping cat was going to copy pro chassis somewhat with there 800 motor at around 175 hp,and 400 ish lbs...now that would sell..I have no brand loyalty at all just want the best mountain sled I can start with to mod, and I would have ordered the cat if thats what it was stock. IMHO

20 lbs comes off easy with a can and the rear idler wheels. Other than that, I would have to look it over to see what weight can come off. The M's were easy cause of the hood. Mesh hood was another 15 lbs.
Yes time will tell on the mods, i';m hopin for a heavy can and hood...lol easy fix then

Cat just saved me some money. If they had come out with numbers closer to the rumors: 170 hp and 435 lbs, I'd probably have done my first snowcheck in years. If weight and power are both close to my 2010 M8, I'll probably sit tight. I guess we'll see if we get a chance to get them out on the snow this spring.

X2. I wanted to get one of these great new cats this year as well. Not sure if I could trade my M8 for a new body design and a chaincase. What happened?
I have no doubt that as they get them refined a bit more by actual production time and than after everybody gets their hands on them for aftermarket and mods that they will be lighter and the power may increase....have to wait and see...They look like they have way too much effort (technology) and money invested for Cat to have a master plan that doesn't work...I think they will be a good sled.

I'm also disappointed that they only have industry leading power. I will not except anything less then the unreasonable rumored specs. If these things came out at 400 lbs and 200 hp everyone would still be bitching about something.

Although the 800 mill may be rated at the same 160 ish HP, I am hoping that the drivetrain will be much more efficient and that the chaincase will get more of that power to the track/ground. Even if the sled weighs the same, a more efficient and reliable drivetrain would be a win in my book.

Agreed, that along with cooler running, better aligned clutches should make this 800 scream all day long.

I have no doubt it will be an improved sled. And probably a bit lighter by the time they reach production. So, the Pro RMK is supposed to be 439 or something, and 435 is unreasonable? Current weight estimates are right in line with...... an '05 M7 LE.....
Just saying that if they would have come out with a slight improvement on the motor they've had the last 2 years, and less weight than their '05 model, I might not have been able to resist a snowcheck. Now, we'll have to wait and see when it hits the snow..... Still stoked to see how this sled works.

Cat also weighs their selds with all fluids besides gas and injection oil, at least thats the way it was at the last cat show.
