yes.peice of cake in the pow and they highmark good.
just wondering what makes the new poo worth $10000 more.....
pretty colors,1 inch higher,bling a arms and hardpack sidehilling?.LOL.
help me understand
Even better question for a new Summit - because there's still an 08 XP in there somewhere
Just so we are clear; mountain 800, the exhaust can on the new Axys Pro weighs 18 pounds. My 153 Cat weighs 465 without fuel or oil, which it uses mass quantities of by the way. I am not sure, but, seems like more than 40 pounds of difference there. As has been stated before, 40 pounds is a bunch when you are pounding the back country all day!!! Our 2012 and 2013 Cats in stock form would blow a $180 belt in 40 to 80 miles without exception. My 2006 Summit X needed a $800 TRA clutch rebuild every 7 -800 miles. Polaris has a new motor chassis combo that apparently rips. I am finished sealing up a chassis that puts mass quantities of snow under the hood. Pick your poison boys, I'm going to run a Polaris again and enjoy it.

No worries there. The 2015 can was 9lbs. Best information so far has the 2016 can at 18lbs. Heard things from company people that are completely false as well. My favorite is "We are not experiencing those problems in our testing."
Fuel consumption on the Zuke and Liberty should be close at WFO if they are close in horsepower. The reports would indicate that the horsepower is indeed close. However the same horsepower in a lighter sled will have an advantage in this regard. Also fuel management at the lower rpm ranges will play a role in fuel mileage as well. Etec is the real benefactor of that part of it.
Mountaincat 800, after I referred to previous posts, the 2016 can weighs 17 pounds. Some of the weight loss is accounted for, ie, new track -4lbs, new rails -3lbs, new a arms/front suspension 3.2lbs. The whole cowl, tub and other parts are more compact than the Pro Ride and may account for some additional weight loss. Pro Ride was claimed 417 dry, Axys Pro is claimed 408 dry, difference of 9 pounds. Can difference is 8 pounds. Total of 17 pounds chassis/body difference. I have accounted for over 10 pounds of that leaving 6.8 pounds somewhere in the mix. That is the full extent of what I know, take it as you will. I think if you talk to that rep again, you might see if he said or meant 17 instead of 7.
