I'm on the same boat. Want to try it out but I think I'll order a sled with the normal skid.
You darn cat guys, so afraid of change
no one wanted a replacement for the 800 zuke, now its here and everyone loves it. I would wait and get some time on it before you decide whether you like it or not, I bet it will be sweet.Should be a step in the right direction for getting these sleds to become lighter and smaller (even if they stick with a 15” wide track for a few years). If it is a flex track it will be interesting to see how it works. If it were garbage im sure they would have tossed the idea. Im looking forward to it.
What are those green clips near the wheels?! Excited about rail, but old boards are disappointing.
The green you see behind the track is spindles from a sled behind it
I got on looking for that thread also this morning. Kind of surprised it was pulled since that pic is in a ton of other threads and all over Facebook. I wonder if Cat or Textron called the main office???
Not too cool.

So what's everyone's major concerns off the bat ? I for one see the rear weight now being centralized to the track instead of spread over the track in a traditional set up (will hyfax wear out fast ?). Is the track stiff so when we side hill the track doesn't fold into a c shape offering no bite on a side hill ? I really hope Cat has some great promotional videos, demos rides, and info regarding this new skid so snowcheckers are not left guessing. Hats off to Cat tho for changing the game with innovative ideas cause if this skid works going to be a sweet ride.
Demos will be key, especially if no ERs. I want to see this skid in all conditions - not just epic powder. On the snowcheck fence and general public opinion is the only thing that will sell me. Nothing against the paid riders but will take more then their babbling to get this deal done.....
Hopefully thats an ER and we get a Mountain Cat with the accessory boards, cleaned up bars, and cleaned up rear end.
Pretty sure thats the alpha everyone has been talking about. But I think we are going to get something different with the bars.

Agreed, enough of a radical change that they’ll need demos in the field for people to try if they want to get people lined up for spring check sleds. An early release would be nice, but at least give the dealers demos! I’m betting this will be a very limited release regardless.
That track on that alpha pic looks narrow to me...like 12"ish. Maybe we're looking at some kind of a snowbike/sled hybrid
