It's here!

Got the email a few minutes ago

Turns out what most people were saying is true. Let's see the snowcheck options now

Nice changes, but I'll keep my 14 Pro a while longer.

 

[AKFULLTHROTTLE]

Ya the Snow Check option better show a bit more before I move on.

 

[mickyd32]

Ya my 2013 is about due for an upgrade. She's getting there in miles. I never checked a new one this spring holding out for some changes. This works for me hoping for some nice snow check options now

Cool!


But are these reeds the model that everyone has been complaining of idle issues with this season?

 

[Wood]

Yes, but there's been no complaints with the Axis and it is the same motor/reeds as the 2016 RMK. The sleds are calibrated by Poo with these reeds so I'm sure there will be no issues.

Would have liked a little bit more lug height, [ 2.8" ] and hope we don`t lose our premium shocks we have this yr.

 

[Rinker]

Bye, bye, kitty. I'm jumping ship.

There is now more room in the bulkhead with rolled driveshaft and 7t 2.86 pitch drivers, so my GUESS is that you'll see a snowcheck option for 3" come March 2.

That is only MY speculation. I can't verify that there WILL be whatsoever.

Remember, what you are seeing here is ONLY the base model. They are telling us there is more to come on March 2 when the full line-up and snowcheck options are released.

Wow, 408 pounds dry..........

Thats pretty impressive

With room to shed.

With room to shed.

Just wished they wouldn't keep shedding weight from the damn rails! I'm not overly impressed but more power would be nice. We'll see what snowcheck options bring before I change my mind as of now I'll keep my 15.

Gotta get these on the snow next to the 15 T3's and Yammacats. That will answer the questions on performance value.

Poo has to execute better on the QD, offer some gearing option (besides gearing down via drivers), they dumped the stupid glued arms (sorry if anyone loves them, but they were DOA), the electrical system might still be weak (we'll won't see till 2016). Finally, a new track. The dropped skid will be another winner that others will emulate, who knows about the new shocks and skid geo. The Pro RMK does ride like chit stock. Maybe this will be better and closer to the comp.

They did nothing to hurt snowability, only help it, it seems, if the track pans out. On paper - more hp, improved snowability, better motor, chassis, and drivetrain reliability, better ride - if they execute, they're gonna sell alot of them, keep the poo faithful in the litter, keep stealing yammacat riders, and compete with the summit. A real nice incremental jump and it should work. Love it!

This should be just enough changes to put the Pro market in the toilet. Looking forward to selling my '12 and getting a '14 or '15 CHEAP!

 

[GoBigParts]

Mine will be around 396lbs with my GGB can

They already ARE cheap. The problem is going to be selling the 2012. I predict '13-15 Pros hold their value well, it is the first couple of years that will likely suffer.

The rails have been Auto CAD designed.
Super strong they don't taco up. they are very similar to the pro rails with a couple of differences.

Nah, I made out good on the 12. Won't be hard to flip around here. Lots of skiers looking for sleds who don't want to pay top dollar for the latest and greatest. Agreed on the cheap 13-15 pros. Now buying an xm, that is like buying a freaking Toyota. Talk about holding value. Those prices are whack.

New Pro Track for 2016

Would have liked a little bit more lug height, [ 2.8" ] and hope we don`t lose our premium shocks we have this yr.

I also was thinking a 2.75" lug at least. A nice split between the 3" Ski Doo and Cat tracks and possibly one that turns faster and works better in all conditions. The 3" tracks certainly have climbing traction but my experience is they are more domineering when under full power than the 2.4" current Polaris track. It is hard to know without being able to take the different sleds and tracks out for a trial run so all of this is a guess. Should be a great new year again in 2016.

Will but new one

Man I just finishedy first weekend in my assault that's streched to 163wirh new pro front end. Coming from an apex and nytro. All I can say is damn I will be another king this new one. I hope this new chassis is even better then the 2012 assault chassis cause wowi like it. Oh. Maybe the race gas big bore helps lol. But in game for another
