just got off the mountain with a pretty good 30 mile test on the new sled. Let me say this is the year they ought to be doing demo's with Brett, rethink this one Cat. Good sled, pretty much had decided to ride the 09 another year but today's ride was pretty persuasive. If this is how they come a good running 09 piped sled will not run with it. The sled had a lot more grunt through the whole power curve than the 09, I was expecting a power curve more like the 700, not so I would say the power curve feels much more like the 1000. Good job Cat.
