Cat 2012

[KAWGRN]

what i think we are going to see is that arctic cat, now that they are building their own motors, will have built a motor for a chassis, that chassis being one very similar to the sno pro. and to me it is a cardinal sin of any recreational vehicle manufacturer to introduce a new motor in a new chassis in the same year. it may be a cool chassis and a cool motor, but definately something that i think the "never buy a first year model" rule applies to more so than almost anything else because of the element of a completely new sled in both the motor and chassis. 2012 may be a big year for cat in terms of an upgrade but i think 2013 will be a big year for their sales if the thing holds up.

I agree I hope they dont rush like polaris does!!! the Ms been out for 7 years now and polaris finally caught up ,,not passed ,, so I guess its time for the next evolution for the nest 7 years again,, hope polaris has a lot of tunnel glue LOL

Man i hope those arent the new cats. Those are just as ugly as their twin spar f series.

Ugly....

Im thinking twinspar face lift.

Hope the Ms are a little different. But pic might not be doing any justice. Might be completely different sitting in from of you

The 2 sleds look different to me as well. One has a TSL and one does not. The lead sled looks like it has a taller lug and maybe sightly longer. Crossfire? Neither one appears to have a rear cam spring suspension either.

If the lead sled is a crossfire, expect the M to follow suit.

New skis as well.

i do appreciate all the spy photos as possible....but seriously... would it of hurt to get off your azz and get out of the truck for some close ups....its not like those two dudes are gonna beat you up...give me a break

holy scandanavian

To me we see F series at left and CF at right. So they are rebuilding all models except utility models? This may be really good move for the trail sleds. M-series is one I'm worried about... hopefully it's not another XP.

I moved to Cat because of their handling. Got a great motor too.

I trust THAT part and will put my money down without a demo. I can catch and fix the little first year stuff that will add weight the next year.

Looks like there is a bunch of cardboard duct taped to the body work to disguise the actual final look to the sled. Spy pictures of disguised prototypes are cool but usually they are not the final product.

looks like there is some kind of net or tarp over the one in front ,you can see it fastened to the running board.

I want a new sled so bad that ive actually considered buying a pro. I voted to ride it first, but my better judgment will probably get the best of my checkbook.

Looks like Cat like the press on these images... They have not been removed from any site I have seen other than Achat yesterday.
