2023 cat. Where is it?

Thanks for the heads up.

Again for 2023 Cat doesn't list a dry weight. Does anybody have a good reference for what one might expect a 23 mountain cat to weigh?
Lynx does the same thing - no dry weights listed.
 
Dry weights allow some method of cross-manufacturer comparison.

The only reason not to provide them is to avoid an unfavorable comparison.

If Cat introduces a new sled in 2024 that is compatible in weight to the Poo and Doo, we will probably see dry weights listed for Cats.

Pretty sure cats been lighter than the doo for a while now. At least all the comparison videos I’ve seen the last few years have the cat 10-15 lbs under the G4 doo.

This is what I could find:

Doo’s website says the 2023 Summit Expert 850 w 154/3 track weighs 430.

Snowmobile.com says the 2021 Cat m8000 Ascender w 154/3 track weighs 446. That is the most recent spec I can find on the Cat.

Per Poo’s website a 2023 Poo Pro RMK Slash w 155/2.75 track weighs 420.
 
Doo was the heaviest for a while, now its cat. ~10#

The fact that there isn't anyone chiming in saying "Got my snowcheck in for XXXX model!" like the Polaris and Ski-doo forums makes me sad :cry:
 
Can’t say I’ve ever felt the need. Know a few that have that aren’t into look at me.
 
should be close in the deep stuff, where it really matters. 'weigh them how we ride them' guys always leave the snow out for some silly reason
 
I was trying to find the weigh in done on the mtn with all three brands where cat was lightest as the alpha holds no snow in skid but it seems pretty elusive. Done in 19 I believe.
 
It was done by one of the aftermarket shops specifically to show the held weight in skids and some of their produced weight loss products.
Single rail was involved.
Believe just a video.
Placed a tripod over sleds and hoisted by hanging scale.
 
it might have been one of the magazines that did that test. cat was the lightest after being ridden. the alpha played a part as well as the front cooler vs full length tunnel cooler. i ride with poo's and there always caked with lbs of ice and snow on the tunnel. but cats are so heavy they say as they chip the ice off the tunnel and back of the boards.
 
Question. Seems every year lately Cat has been making little upgrades to make a better machine. Other than the Blast, or Riot, whichever one has a new option and different colors for 23, did they make any refinements to the mountain sleds?
