I stand corrected, my memory of the engine weight difference was way low. The last Yamaha I was close enough to touch was a triple 2S chassis. And it broke every sled dolly in my garage before I could get it out the door, and that was just the chassis, no engine. I was assuming they may have cut the fat off of them in the last ten years. Serves me right for reposting nonvalidated information.

Those that have transplanted the Nytro engine into the PRO chassis are well below 450 #'s. Not so much a pipe dream anymore. Still not for me, but to each their own.

I don't buy it. Show me one hanging from a scale.

Edited: Nevermind, I should have kept reading the rest of the posts. I was about to say there is no effing way.

You need a link in your sig for people to see what it takes to make a 450 lb nytro.

I know that the Polaris race sleds are having a hard time turning them with there new longer tracks and Ross Martin is trying new front a arms and spindle lengths on his open sleds so maybe that's where they are headed

Yeah. I think new A-arms, spindles and new redesigned lighter hood (panels) heavier duty block, Fuji crank, running approx. 840 cc pumping out 11 more horsepower.

And of course BNG!!

Why do people insist on creating these types of threads?

And why do people believe, or even share, rumors that they heard from someone?

Is it a big damn race to see who can be the first person to let the cat out of the bag or something!?:argue::typing::gossip::face-icon-small-con

I predict the 015 sleds will be track driven, ski steered, powered by an engine transferring power via centrifugal clutches and a chaincase. As in the beginning and as in the future. Just my opinion though. 550iq

HAHA having a hard time turning 128" tracks over 121" give me a break.

There will be:

A 163 Assault with a Chain Case and 39" front end. You'll get the same suspension as the assault this year but 163 and narrow pro front end. I will be snowchecking one

It is

Just wait, I'm picking one up. Talked to one of the engineers and it will only be offered on snow checks this spring.
