Look for Marvin Rehbein in Plains, Montana. He goes by RTI on here.

No trying to be a dick , but is there not WAY more potential in the cat 800 over the Poo. so WHY ?

That's a fair question....


I know there are LOTS of opinions based on lots of different experiences...but...

In my experience with each of those motors (i've owned and ridden with both)...the Cat 800 from the 1m chassis was very solid and didn't havee a lot of reliability problems but there wasn't as much to gain from the aftermarket work as there was from the Pol 800s. The Pol 800s seem to take to porting, pipes and head work more than the 1m 800s. They just seem to like it more.

Yep, he does good work too. I haven't seen his motor mounts but I bet they are great.

Anyone know how close the timing curves are between the Poo 800 and the Cat 8/900? Toying with trying to put the Poo ignition on the Cat motor so you could have the reverse.

Mag end crank taper could also be an issue.

You should talk to Wayde (turbotater).

He's done two engines for me. They both RIPPED when he got done with them.
