The future......

Okay, so we all know Yamaha is up to something. It looks like they are really going to hit the sport market this year. My guess is it will still fall short of the RZR XP 1000 and Can Am Maverick in HP and wheel travel. However, what will be next out by Polaris since Can Am came out with a stock turbo model? Does Can Am expect Polaris to try and top them. Will this leave Yamaha even further behind for the next years models? Also, what will Artic Cat do?............

i heard polaris is coming out with about a 130 hp 1000 this year non turbo

polaris dealer show is this weekend. so we will see. my $$$ is on a turbo 1k

I agree with Dog, Polaris has to something with the 1k. They will not be beaten in the hp game. Do we believe Yamaha's teaser YouTube videos? Is their buggy going to be able to outrun a stock 1k? They sure want us to think so. AC will always be a redheaded stepchild. Even if they ante up with something special I don't think they have the resources to keep up for very long. What will Honda and Kawasaki do?

Think Polaris will have a turbo announced on mon. Still anxious to see what Yamaha has up their sleeve. Trying to hold on to my buggy till at least Jan. then try to decide on something.

In the sport market I have been very disappointed in Kaw. I think they build one of the better built machines. I would love to see them jump in the sport game.

Marty is Right , i have heard the word on the net. its 925 cc 144 hp turbo.
and it will be here Monday......

PoPo will be king again in 48 hours....

Yeah, that is what it looks like......

And said to be $25.000.....

Just don't understand why 925 cc , Why not just stay with the 999 cc
and turbo it....

I guess the 999cc turbo comes in 2017. an HO with 155 hp....

And 32 grand.... The price is what's crazy. So you add a turbo and it jumps $8,000

Yeah the prices have gotten pretty crazy. I remember buying my first new quad, $7000, and thinking that was a lot of money for a toy. I probably have close to that in upgrades and accessories for my current buggy.

I will have to see what all is changed in this new buggy.
Not sure just a turbo is worth the extra cost just for woods riding.
I mean you can get and XP 1000 right now for 16 to 17.
is it really worth another 7 grand , when you do woods riding?
I know the sand guys will love it. But for us is it worth it.
it ant like a XP 1000 is under powered at 110 HP....
How well will a turbo motor be for rock crawling at 2 mph.

that what i say. i dont need a 110 horsepower i just wanted the suspension and longer wheelbase. although the horsepower is nice when you can let the big dog eat on a wide open spot somewhere

I think they all are overpriced for what they are, base jeeps start at $19,400.
