Can't think of one Polaris thing you'd want, except a narrower more forward positioned chassis, much like the Pro and soon to be surpassed by the AXYS. Huh, alrighty.

I'm content to ride the dog piss outta my reliable sled. Yeah I've thrown some money at it to dial it in (skis, can, clutch) , but I ride with plenty of Poos - bent rails, A-Arms, motors burning down, drive pulleys breaking off, etc. If you wanna ride what Chris Burandt tells you is the best, buy a Poo. I know I have a rock solid sled that's just a few refinements away from DIALED. Polaris kicks *** at marketing. Only area their sled is superior.
They took a sled that's made from tinfoil and lightened it another 20 lbs. but hey, it's the "lightest and most flickable". While their sleds are in the shop, I'll be on the mountain!

This is true poo is better in the weight department but when your stuck calling a chopper to get you home il drive by with my heavy cat purring along
It is heavier then a polaris but I'll put my cat and climb with it as far as the poo the rider choses where and how far, we're not comparing 1990 136" track sleds no more, in this day
It's the rider not the sled ride wizely
I actually like the cat but I rode my poo all day and my buddy got 4 tenths of a mile on his 14 cat before being towed back. Pick your poison. With all of them, you either get lucky or you don't.

Any engine updates direct injection???
Aside from on the internet and on paper I haven't seen the poo do any dominating. Rode with two 163 pros yesterday and had zero issues keeping up or getting anywhere they did on my 153 cat. Don't get me wrong they handle great I've just never seen the total and utter domination out on the hill that is constantly being spewed on here. Sounds like cat is addressing all the major complaints(aside from weight) that folks have with the PC so there should be even less "domination" by the all mighty pro.
--Poo has a lot more to learn from Cat than Cat from poo -engine and suspension for starters...

I'm with you - anything I can do on a Cat, I can do on a Poo and vice versa. Only difference is Cat dominates the reliability department.
$700 to upgrade your previous model M (or "Yamaha" viper)to the new A arms and spindles in whatever color you want. Nice

Team Primary and Secondary.
Also noticed on the website that the M6000 is offered in a 141.

New ski compared to old ski, wider

I noticed that 141"option, it's even on the m8000 too
TEAM clutches. That's huge. Wish I had decent Cat dealer close by.
Those are NOT the clutches Yamaha uses. They have their own, far more advanced clutches than any other OEM
(Yes I realize these are not OEM and therefore not comparable, as Cat & Poo purchase from TEAM)

Looking at all the releases and pretty much knowing what poo is coming with, I don't think anyone should be digruntled this for 16. I would say about the most of any year yet.
No more grippies on top the skis, new skis musta resembled the grippers a bit to much. The grips come in quite handy righting a tipped sled and such.
