Turbo Doo Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 On the bright side, at least they don't need the kitten club for chassis... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baylaker Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I’m hoping yamahas is very soon. Arctic Cats is in a couple days. One small teaser video with a whopping length of about 5 seconds! Supposedly AC is bringing out a 880 2 stroke with 185hp. I have a feeling yamahas release will be in March. They’re usually always the last to reveal their lineup. i thought forsure skidoo would’ve come out with something better than a 7” wide gauge, BNG, (one actually looks like Yamaha blue) shorter tunnel etc. Nothing special IMO.

Since yamaha don't make snowmobiles, I imagine the line up that AC has will encompass what ever Yamaha puts their decals on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baylaker Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I think everyone will see something good from Yamaha this year, it’s either that or they just continue working with cat, or get out altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cat is coming out with an 880 2 stroke with 185hp named the "Riot", then you can surely bet that Yammy will also have an 880 2 stroke with 185hp and they'll probably have a snakes name on it Same as iAct on the '19 Cats....Yammy has iQs.

Haven't had the time to go through the video yet, to see what's what. I usually find out around PDI time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve also heard from a few good sources the 2 stroke Yamaha will make a return. I just might make the switch if it does! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you do that. yamaha will not be making a 2 stroke sled engine, it will be a complete cat with maybe yamaha clutching which is worse than the TEAM clutches in the cat, pay more for less.

They said after 5 years something big will be coming, but I guess we all have to wait and see. If There’s not an all Japan sled coming (which was what another Yamaha guy had told me) then I’ll just continue to ride my Yamacats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If There’s not an all Japan sled coming (which was what another Yamaha guy had told me) then I’ll just continue to ride my Yamacats! I've been patiently waiting as well but I certainly am not going to hold my breath! There is talk about a new 2 stroke Yamaha that a lot of people have written off as bunk but they currently have a 600 2 stroke sled across the big pond. It is a Cat engine however but from what I understand, it is Yamaha's design/engine that Cat built? 13 hours ago, wrightonalan said: im thinking yamaha will just get out of sleds soon. That has been the talk for many years and one year it could happen but personally I don't see it just yet. If Yamaha does break away from Cat then to me that means they are in it for the long haul as I am sure the money they would have invested in that would be huge. I guess we'll find out within the next few weeks or sooner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
