looks like the seat might be an improvement. wont sit so low now
Good pics i like the storage bag or whatever on the back looks better that way, that le is awesome. does anyone know if is just the hcr getting the 90 duro track again this year or is that on the le as well ?
my dealer told me the compartment under the seat go's all the way to the gas tank, you can stick your whole arm in it. I'm a little worried its to short being 6'6" looks like I'll be falling of like trying to ride a greased pig. dont care for the graphics much either.
those are way better pics. i like the mesh on the front screens that is a good idea. oh wait thats what i did to my 05 i found out that it stop so much snow in my air box. i hate the yellow on the hcrs fugly do like how the spindle is green though
the LE looks EFFIN AWESOME
Noticed on the LE that the front floats are different then on the Arctic cat website and also the A Arms and spindle are black now.

i think the black one looks like a used spray canned piece of crap.new sleds should be shiney.
With all these improvements all you people do is complain about colors and shades of colors? No matter what forum you look at its the same *****ing about color. Maybe you should get into the makeup industry where color actually means something.
These forums are soon gonna be useless since the only thing wrong with sleds these days is color. Nothing but a bunch of closet homos and complainers here.

That is the CFR 8 limited, for some reason they get a black front end and the M doesnt.
The 2nd and 3rd pics are the CFR 8, the first pic is the M8?, also looks like the front end is black, unless the glare from the lights is playing tricks on my eyes. Also the M8 in the back of the 2nd pic looks like the front end is black.
Waiting for my M8 L is going to make this the longest summer ever. I need to find a summer hobby to pass the time.
Tell me about it, I just ordered my M8 L today, think this will be the longest summer yet.
few things to know on the 2010 M8's
I had the opportunity to do a night ride on 02-13-09 with three 2010 M8 SP's (two 153's and one 162)...put on around 60 miles in decent snow conditions. ALL I CAN SAY IS YOU WILL BE IMPRESSED! The horsepower is now 160 and there is weight dropped at the new skis, new seat (3 1/2 pounds) and new M8 motor (4 1/2 pounds lighter). I was not sure what to think about the seat till I had some time on it...it sits up much higher and it is easy to throw your legs over as it is tappered in the front. Not that mountain riders spend much time on the seat but it is nice going down the trail and sitting up higher just seems like you have more control. The material in the seat is different so you don't slip off the seat when it is wet and it is much softer than the boss seats that Cat offered with last seasons spring orders and the hcr's. The storage is as large or larger than last years stock seat and it is almost "dry" storage being there is space above the tunnel unlike last years seat where you stuff sat on the tunnel. The seat is a huge plus....the foot rails are different too...different angle, less teeth to hold snow and bigger cut-outs to drop snow. The front of the hood now come with frogskins...looking sharp. Now you have the best of both worlds...the power of a M1000's with the weight of a M8. The boys in Thief River did a great job on this sled!!!!!!! You ride it...you'll buy it!
