as far as looks go though everyone said the same thing when they came out with the rev, then rev-xp...oh its ugly, I hope thats not the new doo, and so on and so forth... i assume it will grow on us... i do hope it looks similar to the sno pros though, those sleds look awesome IMO.

There is no way its the new mountain sled, way to little to fit the 1000cc under the hood, let alone. where would I put the turbo. Better start fabing a turbo hood I guess. Then again just getting rid of the old muffler might have saved that much room?????

1000 will no longer be produced in 2012.

Talked to a guy yesterday who rode the 2012 Cats. All he could tell me that the chassis is a game changer! He said it will do what the Rev did to the Industry. I tried getting more, but by the end he was missing all his teeth so maybe thats why he couldn't tell me!:face-icon-small-coo

Those look like a F series 136" at best on track lg. They sit real low to ground and the front half of the skis lay flatter like a Pro. Basically it looks like they caught up to Poo and Doo with the front suspension design. the back half looks like std. old Cat style. Seat looks low and Doo like. Mike

I would guess that we would see the turbo 1050 four stroke before we see the 1000 2 stroke back.

I'm really interested to see the motor choices as all the rumors of direct injection have been flying around. The four stroke turbo has been on the rumor mill for years. Also, talk of an HO 600 too.

Anyone else see Polaris is releasing 3 sleds early this year? February 7th to be exact. Will Polaris have a competitive motor?

Why would the crank need to be any bigger, the cats are already over built. Thats why they kick arse. If you want to give up the warranty I'm sure any dealer will get you a turbo ready sled.
