2011 M series

[HiWaYman92]

So far I am not depressed that I bought a 2010. Those LE colors belong on some snowboarders coat. Glad I got the newest green M since 07. Not big on the orange or green spindles and A arms either, like the silver better. The big white triangle on the seat either...

 

[Beavis]

Yeah, WTF with that new green! I tried to adjust my monitor but it's no better!

And check out the Z1 Turbo SnoPro LTD!!! WOW! That is the ugliest sled I've ever seen! It seriously hurts to look at!

 

[JHG]

HCR now has a 162 tunnel on it.

where the m1000 ho??? yeah very dissapointed with cat this year better keep my 2010 m8 le and trade when the 2012 come out, if they get rid of that ugly azz green ewww,

 

[GlennRMK]

I agree with you guys

LE green is nasty. Never liked green period. How about some new colors like red or blue?

Don't like the white part on the seat either. Ugly and its going to get dirty fast.

Don't care for the powdercoated a arms either. Prefer the black on my 06. I don't like my silver either.

might as well ride an 05 and put 11 stickers on it

 

[backcountryislife]

wow, the new lineup really has me wishing that the new polaris didn't have a cast bulkhead.

In order to make the sled that I want now I have to either buy one that is obnoxiously long, or trail short.

It is truly amazing how little the douchebags that live in MN understand about real mountain riding.

I like my cats, but if they're just going to offer 8's (aside from the 162 that's for the boys that are compensating...:O), at least toss on a turbo or something so they're worth buying!!

 

[diggler]

at least the M on the hood is going to be easy to read when its straight up

 

[sled-fiend]

Looks like the standard M's now have a coil over rear suspension. Same float rear skid for the snopros.

It's what I epxected just bng. Is my phone not showing everything or are they only offering a 153 sno pro with a snowcheck? The green with a black tunnel couldve been sweet. I like the black hood though. I think Polaris will have the sled to beat this year. I'll keep my 2010(maybe pump gas) and wait and see what 2012 brings us. Any new refinements weight loss, clutching, any of that?

 

[M8Chris]

Scratch that I see the 153 snopro

Looks like the Cat designing crew took a step backwards in the styling department. Boy, are they disappointing to look at! I had hoped to order a 2011, but guess I'll stick with my beautiful 2010. And maybe find another 2010 to replace my 09. Maybe this new styling will appeal to a different crowd, but I'd be willing to bet that crowd is going to be very small compared to what was offered for 2010. Heres to 2012 I guess.

x2 Wow those have to be the ugliest cats in years !!! Wheres the 1000ho???

Very Glad I bought a 2010 M8 SP! For me, I think the graphics and color schemes for the 2011 are hideous. Although the economy is still rough, I expected there to be at least something a little exciting to give you hope for 2012. I guess Cat thinks the world is going to end in 2012, so they have stopped all R&D

So far Poo, BRP, and Yamaha have at least brought some interesting things to the table to entice their brand loyal fans for 2011. So far from what I can see on the website, Cat has offered nothing new, and has regressed with aestetics IMHO. Oh yea, some sweet BNG from Cat comes with yet another bump in price for 2011!

There never was a 1000ho, just a lot of dreaming on this forum. BNG is boring new graphics

 

[schmeric]

If arctic cat is going to save their money then so am i. They need to grow a pair. Get rid of that green it is awfull.

 

[Mnt bound]

It looks to me like my 08 m1000 that has a PC, Bumper mod and 2010 seat is the same as a 2011 M1000. Only its not green. Time to look for a deal on a new 2010 m8.

 

[WYsteph]

Hmm, looks like I'm the only one who likes the new BNG? The snopro is pretty good looking and *gasp* I like the sublime on the LE, just something different for once.

 

[jhurkot]

still probably going to be the best stock 800 sled for 2011. Going to have to see how the polaris does after the season before we jump to conclusions.
