"Totally Non-Biased Comparison Video"
- Thread starter ndC7M8
- Start date
I also enjoyed Ryan's pictures... If they were unbiased as the rest of the test was and were all in the same conditions!
The video says Skidoos X model ???
Why does the snow on the Pro have dirt embedded in it even way up on the seat??
The Yamaha has more snow on it at that time than when you weighed it ??
Apple's to apple's right?? Take the electric start off all three and install air shocks and reweigh!!! Cuz that was the big differences that mattered in his email!! Make sure you ride them all so as to get the same snow buildup again !! Or it would be a biased comparison!!!
Not that you were roosting it to add weight !!!!!! But I have never had rocks find their way up on my seat or tunnel .. maybe take that lead weight off the tunnel with its quick disconnect that is protruding out of the left hand side !!!!
In Ryan's photos the Fifth pic shows snow thrown under the Pro and the others are parked in a hole or packed area ?? Sure looks staged!!

Just the weight attached to the tunnel!!!
Tin cans are amazingly strong for the material used. Who wants a tin can that is heavy and hard to pick up?

There is the possibility that North Korea was involved with this video too. We should be careful.
They are known to use staged scenarios, propoganda and social media to try "divide and conquer" methods in a war.
Maybe North Korea intends to conquer the mountain sleddin' world. Maybe they have an ICBM Skud 960 ready to go as soon as we finish trashing ourselves.

Kim-Jong-Un?? I laugh my @ss off every time I hear that name...Un
LMAO....he's secretly in bed with Yamaha because he pi$$ed at the Chinese these days.
As for the video....any relatively smart person can see through it a mile away.

The Cat - Yamaha, whatever you want to call it appears to be accumulating snow here. Did Cat make it to the weigh in?

Go to the ski-doo section..... Pro vs xm
Go to the cat section.....cat vs pro
Now this bs yamaha video more so with its sights on the pro than the doo for the weight comparison.
Guess who is generally the best?
The most hated by others.
The most compared to by others.
No one compares doo to cat, they aim for the best.... The pro rmk. Best all around mountain sled...... Done deal.

Great STOCK sled. They are one of the best selling too and have done a good job making them the lightest. They do need to work on the power and reliability. I would say they are the number one sled overall price, weight and handling, but not reliability. I'm sure it won't be long before one of the others is back on top. It changes. I still like a ski doo over the polaris for stock sleds.

OMG this again?! So why is it that a heavy *** Yamaha that feels heavy in the showroom feels even heavier when stuck? My Polaris RMK is easy to lift in the shop when dry and not that hard to lift when stuck. The same can't be said about the Yamapig. These "comparisons" are total BS. If they were true, no one would ever complain about how heavy Yamaha's are. Pretty bad when you never want to ride a Yamaha 4-stroke alone because it is too heavy to lift when packed full of snow without help from a buddy. Add to that, my buddy's 2-stroke Cat 800's are definitely not noticeably lighter than my RMK when stuck. These videos are pure marketing horse****.
Does this mean you can ride a Pro like a Pro in the mountain deep snow and not ever move your feet around? Burandt must be doing something wrong because it is obvious by the pics that the folks that rode the pro for the weight test never moved the feet on those board's. It is hilarious they posted that. At least we know they have a sense of humor.

I ride a Viper and when I watch this for the first time I called BS. They are heavier no doubt. What I like about my viper is the HP. It's feels awesome. The track speed is unbeatable. When I get stuck or at least think I'm stuck, I give the sled a wingle and throttle out. It works great. If I can't do this I roll the sled, which doesn't take much effort. It would be nice if the sled was lighter but then I would have to give up power and reliability, and until they engineer something better I'll live with it. I look forward to the near future for snowmobiling.

You cant be talking a stock na viper. There are still lots of us that ride a stock engine.
two things: Weigh my sled last and I will melt the most snow off before getting weighed in also!!
2nd: The only way to have that small amount of snow stick to rubber on a track= silicone spray the night before. Works well and last for awhile! Work great on metal too!
Why can't it snow in N.D./MN. or Yellowstone for that matter!

Thanks for the laugh, Haven't laughed that hard in a long time.
First of all... I think that Yami has gone a long way to making their sleds lighter... and more user friendly... I'm a smaller rider.. and still prefer the PRO...
Here's some of my previous posts on this topic.
