My dealer in Montana just posted a pic of a 153 2021 twin rail that is available for sale. Saying it’s a very limited build. What the hell is going on? I thought that was only an overseas option. Anyone other dealers getting these?

The mouse that I visit said they had to supply for hill climb racers mono isn't approved?!

I don't know why it wouldn't be approved considering their new hillclimb sled they just released with the SX and XC machines has the alpha rail. I believe there are probably some hill climbers that would prefer the twin rail if given the choice.

Yellowstone Motorsports in Bozeman is the dealership.

The 2021 Cat brochure shows the option at the back either 153/154 on a M8000 Mountain Cat Alpha One

I didn’t see anything on there website

Posted on their facebook page and instagram. It's a great looking sled and awesome to see the twin rail option back. Hopefully it sticks and is just not a one off thing due to overstock or something else going on with the hillclimb series. I worry they built a bunch of these for the hillclimb guys, as backup just in case the alpha rail did not get approved. With the recent release of the new race sleds, assuming the alpha rail is now approved.

If they built a bunch for the racers they didn’t tell us about it. In my experience the alpha rail is much stronger than the unbraced twin rails. if the new 2.6 alpha track will bite and not wash on the hard stuff like the 3” the the M-R should work well on a racecourse.

That is one good looking sled! It looks like it's a surprise build like the 2019 600 Alpha?
In 2019 there was no word the 600 Alphas were even being produced until they started showing up at dealers.

Mt Baker has one $14,800 Add says it has full length tunnel cooler !!

2.6 track and electric start. It is exactly the international version released during last fall snowcheck period. Apparently it was an option in the US supplemental snowcheck period this summer. Appears no one new about it as it was buried in the brochure.

One of the better color combos cat has done. Although the differences are subtle from the Alpha, the MC is the best looking 2021 design.
