this is a list from our note book over the last 8 years of weighing sleds....its funny it took 9 years for a manufacturer to beat the weight of the CMX
PS: got permission from DARKO to post this.
updated !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2lbs difference between the 08 XP's and 09 XP's. I guess it's the new driveshaft and the new foam for the intake.

Does nobody know or just not remember Blade? Their sleds have always been near or under 450lb dry.
Hylander is 456lb dry, with 151" track

WHO RIDES THEM DRY--ADD almost 100# and theres your weight--and what was the cost of these custom builds--like the CMX---A LOT of $$$$$ but they were pretty light

i think the owner said 11 gals
11.4 is listed on Arctic Cats website so thats only .8 gallons more then the XP which is only 5 lbs or so.
Still, thats a nice improvement for Arctic Cat. 617 for the M1000 is heavy!
Although 900 RMK made it look good!

That Blade sled is gross! Super outdated, never even saw one of those either. Consider the M7 came out the after that and weighed right about the same, even more impressive.
Also why always compare 162 M8 with a 154 xp

With the superior power, and performance prowess of the Yamaha's, it is NEVER necessary to dig them out.
They simply don't get stuck... did I mention they ride very light as well?
YOu are right, it isn't necessary. Just leave em in their grave.. LOL
They simply don't get stuck.... What do you call it then? Every machine gets stuck... PERIOD.

Thats if they can get up to where you are!!!!!

It would be the bottom of the hill that you would have to be worried about.
Getting stuck on a slope, you are on your own.
