ya cant wait. Ive seen some cool pictures from a couple guys helping doing their testing but haven't seen the final product. Things you dream up of as a timbersled owner for improvements but ingenuity of parts that is ridiculous. Very excited its finally all coming together for them. Glad to hear theres a date!

Between 9-10000 i believe. Thats not a direct quote but ballpark. Think it was roughly a g more than TS kit to kit. They have 4 sizes. Hope i didnt say to much lol.

Yup. The stuff that they are doing just makes so much intuitive sense. The ski. The track. The belt drive.

Don't get me wrong - I like my Timbersled kit. But looking at it you get the sense that it was designed by a company that was snowmobile based. Nothing wrong with that, but there is a big difference in mechanics. Especially the ski.

Great that someone else had the financial capability to try something different. The sport will be better for it.

Now - we just need a purpose built bike......... :)

"it might be better to design the White Rabbit to be driven with one knee on the seat as opposed to sit on it. … when the problem begins.”>A knee support could therefore replace the seat. - See more at: http://www.charlesbombardier.com/2013/09/white-rabbit/#sthash.YjlUXc54.dpuf"

This is where I think the disconnect starts. Some of these designers really do not have a concept of the sport past trail running in Quebec. That is the essential limitation of mountain snowmobiles. You have a chassis that is still really a 60 year old design for flat landing. Get that seat up so you are in an attack mode instead or riding like a boulevard cruiser - then maybe they will have something

By the sounds of it, its going to give Timbersled some competition which I think the snowbike industry needs. That spindle just looks bad *** and I'm sure the price is high seeing parts like that on one... Excited for friday!

Competition is good for this sport. Now we just need a little lightweight v-twin that puts out 120hp normally aspirated ! :face-icon-small-win:face-icon-small-win
