Im in the market for buying new sled but i dont know what i should get. i need a good mountian and deep snow sled but im suck between the polaris dragon 800 163, the yamaha nytro 162, and the cat m8. what do you guys think would do the best?

i would agree if you want a two stroke. i just bought a nytro 162 and plan on turboing it. if you want a mountain killer that is 100 percent reliable get a nytro and turbo or supercharge it. just my opinion

i was kinda leaning towards the nytro. but i also do really like the new pro rmk 800. i just cant decide what i really want. i dont really want an artic cat that much tho. what kind of turbo would you guys put on the nytro?

Depends what kind of riding you plan on doing. I like the cat's for boondocking, since they feel really light and are easy to balance on their sides. I found the XP's are a little more geared toward point and shoot and tend to climb a little better than the cats, but they are harder to boondock with. Haven't had a chance to ride the new pro RMK but hear good things. The Yamaha's are awesome with a turbo and will climb anything in a straight line, but feel really heavy unless the snow is deep. I'm sure people will argue with me but these are just my opinions. I ride a cat by the way and do mostly boondocking.

i am a polaris man myself, but if you get a nytro then call Alan at ulhmer racing in yankton,south dakota. he also has ads in the back of snowest magazines. he know his stuff and only does yamaha 4 stroke sleds. just my .02cents

I'm generally a Polaris man myself........well, I say that.....actually if it's got two skis and a track I'm happy....

You wouldn't go wrong with any of them but I'd have to lean towards the M-8 after riding one in the steep and deep a few times......A Sno Pro 153"......If you haven't ridden one, I think you'd be impressed with how they pull up on top and float.....Not that the others won't.....just my 2 cents......

:face-icon-small-hap

Not a bad choice on any of them though!

Nytro if there built and set up right they will do everything any of the other sleds will do and won't have to put a motor in it every year
