Stock gearing on the high country's is 22/48 unless you have the euro model in which its 21/49. I have a high country as well and went to the 20/49 hyvo gearing and chain last year. Wondering what going to a 22/49 would do to things. I am moving back to MN in the next few months so won't need the gearing for the steep and deep anymore except for the one or two trips I plan to take out west.
Country cat posted on facebook that cat told them of it this week at the annual meeting and that they would release details soon.

exactly what noma said, my dealer said they have a meeting on the 20th and he will know more then, so hang on guys. must be a big one if they are getting dealers together first.

i was at my dealer yesterday. He has been talking to cat pretty regularly about this. he said they keep telling him there is a kit in the works and is "coming"
he also says there is going to be a kit for the new belt guard...
i am patiently waiting, but every day i get a little less patient... the snow will be here soon.

I think this would definitely qualify as Cat stepping up and trying to make things right. Not sure how I’d feel if I was '12 owner and out of factory warranty though?
My dealer said new secondary. I asked about the gears and he told me he didn't think so but new gears and chain would be good!

Yup, that's what we where told at the tech update, of course I'm a flatlander, so you guys may get more...
IMHO no one is posting it because they don't want to get flamed...
Anyone that is thinking about gearing down needs to IMO. You can do a 20t top gear for $35. Doesn't require a new chain and if you level out the sled on its side you can do it without losing or even changing oil. I ran it all last year and highly recommend.
I'd rather fix the clutching issue than the gearing. I dropped to a 20th top and didn't like it. Then topped it off with 7 tooth drivers cause I'm running a 3" and I can't stand it. It doesn't pull near as hard as it did when it was completely stock. I have Bradley's ttcf in now and I will be going back to stock gearing.

Not Trying to be a d$&/ here but Those gears are not free, a lot of guys (not me luckily) have paid for those gears time and time again, it was just belts (at $200 or more) sliding across the table at the dealers instead of gears. Glad to see that cat is hopefully going to step up to the plate. It's going be good fellas
Dropping down to 7 tooth drivers is more of a gearing change then dropping 1 tooth on the top sproket, your probably geared so low its not loading the motor.
Exactly why I'm going back to stock gearing
21/49 with 8s 81mph 20/49 with 8s 77 mph and 20/49 with 7s 68mph
I did the 20t top gear.....The 20t definitely felt way better! I highly recommend it also!
