Ok, so now Yamaha has made a video just like Cat did last year claiming that their sled holds less snow than Ski Doo or Polaris. I call BS on both videos. Someone suggested that maybe someone who didn't work for the big 4 ought to make a video. Well I just ordered an 1,100 lb digital scale off of ebay. Admittedly it's a cheapy but I bet it will last long enough to weigh a few sleds. Anyone want to get together, go for a ride and weigh some sleds?
I ride a 2014 800 Pro RMK LE ES that is or will be by the end of the weekend fully powdercoated, painted or wrapped. I'm looking for some other brands to weigh, as well as a non-painted, coated or wrapped Pro. I want to personally see what happens. I'll ride yours, you ride mine. That way we'll each be trying to load the other's sled up. Then we'll measure 'em and see what we get. I'm really interested to see what an unpainted Pro weighs compared to mine to see if all the coatings I put on did anything or just made it look pretty.
Any takers? I'm in Grand Junction so looking at riding Grand Mesa or Flattops.
Ought to be a fun experiment one way or the other - looking at Sunday March 30th.
