Who's all with me in that Mr. Horse should just show us the whole sled already? Cause we all know that he has all the info before Facebook does, and seems to know more than he is letting out! Out with it! Haha

 

[4Z]

Yeah, stop Horsing around and show the mo fo.

 

[IceCap]

I am sure Mountianhorse has more info.... But he can't let it out too soon.

We just have to be patient!!

And on todays menu. Carbon fiber over-structure.

This in combination with the new running boards will bump the responsiveness and rigidity of the chassis a couple of more notches... Some other updates to this chassis and we'll have a really evolved refined sled platform that will be hard to beat. (keep your eyes peeled for more)

Look closely at the jackshaft and brake rotor area...see anything different?... you can get an idea of what else is in the works. It also answers speculation that has been posted on another one of my threads as to location of the brake caliper/rotor. Hmmmm.

These CF parts themselves will be only a small drop in weight...but a significant player in the "overall picture"... and besides the cool factor, this should make a noticeable difference in the "feel" of the sled...

annnnd it looks like the standard chaincase is gone....

this is going to be a real BA sled

 

[mtnclimber19]

LOOK! No chaincase between the bulkhead and the brake rotor!

 

[mickyd32]

so I see that the brake rotor is not located next to a chaincase

after seeing all this my only question is where is the 144 model? lol I"ll bend anything longer

 

[SLDHVN]

if there is no chaincase, and the brake rotor is on the jackshaft, how are we going to stop when we blow a drive belt on this new drive?

 

[assault11]

This answers our question about the belt drive. Polaris is single handily taking over the mountain market!

 

[2XM3]

looks to be a smaller brake rotor as well

 

[R_8_N]

if there is no chaincase, and the brake rotor is on the jackshaft, how are we going to stop when we blow a drive belt on this new drive?

If thats the case why not just put another new one on? why would you not carry a spare just like everyone carries a spare drive belt?

Thy
E same way you do now when you break a chain. I wouldn't worry about breaking a belt anymore than I would about breaking a chain....

The same way you stop when you break a chain, Fred Flintstone style.
