Are they offering demo rides or sleds?
How much room above the stock drivers... Will a eight tooth fit in, I see a hp loss there and a ugly attack angle
Are the tunnels a one piece tunnel on the 174 or another retrofit from 154 to 174?
Anyone have exsperince with the skid, will it hold the skis in place in the steep and harder snow?
So many questions

Aside from a wrap. I think Black Side panels would really help the looks. How much do those run?
Its still going to be a pain to keep the tunnel clean, but it would be a start. Maybe tunnel side wrap and side panels and I think it would be a decent sled. Dislike the black stains from exhaust on side panels and tunnel. Always looks terrible.

I second the 154 3" and another option for the colour
Just over 14k msrp for the 174, 500 less for the 163.
The new ski doo XRS
Besides color and larger board openings, did anything else at all change for the regular summit x or sp models???
^^^Agreed! I'd check a 154 3" if they had it.
163/154
I wonder why someone would run away from a 163'', it is only 4,3'' longer(overall lenght) than a 154''. Can't handle 4,3''

A black 163 T3.
I would switch from Polaris for that.

ya, not liking the yellow and would have liked a 154" T3.
That said, good job ski-doo, bold move! BRP could have sat back for another year and watched the mountain share grow without any changes like it has the last 2 years.
Cant believe Polaris didn't up the game at all? Gonna be another tough year for Poo dealers here on the west i suspect. hopefully poo doesn't stock making mountain sleds or we would have to start slagging on Cats or something

'Doo hit this one out of the park. Discussion about color when there are big changes suggests the updates are welcomed by mountain riders. At this point, I think I will put with yellow if that is the only option we have at the end of the snowcheck season.
I would hazard a guess that 85% of the snowmobiles here in Whistler here are 154" track machines. I know my dealer alone sold over 100+ 154" Summits.
I'm really quite puzzled why they didn't do a 3" track 154". It would have done REALLY well out here in BC. People out here like to jump and hit pillows and pound whoops. With good throttle control and skill most people don't really like to go longer than 154" - and that is "long" by Whistler Standards. 3 years ago 146"/144" was the most common length around here.

Don't get me wrong. T3 is a neat idea but something about dropping the skid out of the tunnel for clearance and fixing it by making the spindles longer with deeper skis makes me wonder if it will work as well as the (so called pros) say it does ? What's the verdict on higher c of g ? Deep skis ? Lets hear it !
It looks like the spindles are shorter from the lower ball joint to the ski bolt....just like the SLP spindles that Rasmussen used and were on some of the prototypes. We run them on the shop sled and also a 3" track, works awesome!
I'm told they eliminated the front cooler on the T3 also.
Does anyone know for sure what they did for drivers?? I am assuming 8t with the longer case but haven't seen it in print.

There is a "snowest" video on youtube that explains most of this. 7 tooth and retains some type of front cooler.
