2018 mountain cat weight

[SnoPro1000]

Has anyone put it on the scale yet?
Country cat out a 2017 on the scale full at 556lbs and an early build at 545lbs
I’m curious to know what a full mountain cat weighs in at not the early build mountain cat but the in season snow checks

careful how you interpret the info.. country cat chose a heavier model to compare to instead of the 17MC.
but the 18MC will certainly come in significantly less RTR.. its been posted here but pics are gone.

From my understanding the production MC was to be 10lbs lighter then the EB MC put it around the 535#

I wish. I think 5 lbs would be optimistic. Hopefully someone weighs one soon.

I'm guessing the production MC is 10lb lighter than the early release snopro, not the early build MC.

Well it's not 535 lbs in a 153 full of fluids. I know because I weighed my production snowcheck in my link above. 545lbs will no snow flap or front idler wheels. Gripper skis are lighter than the stock skis. Muff pot prob weighs a couple lbs to offset the idler wheels.

it should be dry, but somethin doesnt add up looking at co.2's actual weights.

Did country cat fill theirs with oil, take it as-is out of crate and just fill with gas, burp fuel tanks or not, C.O has a small tunnel bag, canceled scales w/wo straps, scale calibration, spare belt and tool kits, all kinds of factors that would make a 5-10lb difference between two people weighing same sleds. My spare belts and tool kit are 5lb on their own.

I still blame everyone's weight questions on this: https://www.snowest.com/forum/showthread.php?t=436097

^agreed. and website shows 11.7 gal tank, what do the actual spec sheets show? 10.something... doesnt add up..

What were production sleds supposed to have to lose weight over the early release? Shafts for about 3 lbs and?

Also the early release snopro has lighter shocks than the MC. MC has LED headlight which should be slightly lighter. What else, am I missing? I wouldn't expect any difference between those two sleds.

3lb loss on the production track shaft, new brake setup is 1.5lb loss (not sure if ER and EB had that or not), Production models get 5lb lighter gas tank (dry), 2018 Jackshaft is 2lb lighter also since it is hollow (also don't know if that was on the ER and EB).

I didn't have a spare belt or any tools on mine when I weighed it. I was topped up on all fluids

I weighed two out of the crate full production Mountain Cat 162" at 476 lbs. My 2015 Sno Pro out of the crate weighed 487 on the same scale. This is directly out of the crate assembled with all factory equipment and no fuel added.

Thanks,
Woody

Mountain Cat 162

Picked mine up last week, Mountain Cat 162 with mountain pro front and rear bumpers weighed in at 550 lbs. full of fuel, oil and water with the tool kit and air pump.

Hmm. That doesn't equate to the 545lb numbers I'm coming up with on my 153 MC. The grippers and snow flap delete on mine is probably worth 5lbs. And with no tools, belt, or pump. That would make your 162 weigh less than mine stock for stock. Can you check the accuracy on your scale? I verified mine is correct by weighing myself on it, and on two different bathroom scales.
