2012 weight?

[Matte Murder]

73Tmeyer there is a battery in mine. 10 gallons of gas alone is 70lbs. Add engine oil and any other fluids I think those Cats are more like 60 maybe 70 lbs more. The 1100 Turbo is even heavier. Not for me. Again, I don't care how you do it, I would love to have an accurate easy to confirm weight for each sled. Wouldn't that be a great job for a magazine that does the group test anyway. Apples to apples to apples. Along with a test ride and some other data that would really help me decide what sled to buy in the spring when the best deal can be had. I wouldn't buy solely on weight alone but that is important to me and it shouldn't be so hard to come by an accurate number.

the new M could be a lot lighter if ac wasn't more interested in the 4 strokes now. sure this will be the last platform you see with a 2 stroke for them. think they really threw the 2 strokers under the bus using the exact same chassis for the 4 and 2 strokes. a lot of unused area's when you put the 2 stroke in that chassis, sure a lot of it was overly built to accomodate the weight of the 4 stroke. imo for the 2 stroke guys its a step backwards...

431.5 pounds for the 12 from what i've read the change in the cylinders is just the mounting boss for the new injectors. the half pound is for the beefier tunnel braces.

Supertrax vol 23, issue 1. "No bull buyers guide" has the following:

Dry / Wet / Fuel


Pol

800 pro 163 - 438 / 510 est / 11.5 gal
800 rmk 155 - 440 / 510 est / 11.5 gal
800 assault - 446 / 520 est / 11.5 gal

Cat

800 hcr 153 - 463 / 530 est / 10.6 gal
M800 153 - 468 / 535 est / 10.6 gal
m1100 turbo 153 - 559 / 625 est / 10.6 gal

Doo

800 sum x 154 - 459 / N/A / 10.6 gal


These are just estimates based on fuel capacity/dry weight I would imagine.
Take it all with a grain of salt.

Impressive, eh ? Add 10 gal. of fuel plus oil and coolant and the fat cat will weigh 50-plus lbs more than a Pro ready to ride ? Wow !! Sure glad I didn't buy buy one of them chubby kitties.

This is like WyoBoy1000 bait... haha

I wish they would use fully loaded weight too. No one rides dry and everyone leaves the parking lot with a full tank no matter how big it is...

I keep waiting for him to show up with some analysis of how identical sled track lengths aren't the same because the approach angle differs by 1 degree. And how the cats really aren't that heavy because all of their weight is packaged in a new wrapper.

Don't get him started. Kinda like a really bad rash you can't get rid of.

Ha true. its so hard not to scratch it tho! lol We just need some snow to ice it.

Anywho... I really would like to see someone put their Pro on a scale ready to ride right before they throw it on the trailer... just out of curiousity. No math.

If u search back in the threads last year Vohk weighed a pro ride as it came delivered...full chaincase..coolant ..and just enough fuel to run..weighed 452lbs ..they also weighed a proclimb out of the crate not that long ago with same fluids at 490..so with fuel they should only be 30ish lbs apart considering the proclimb holds a gallon less fuel
