Thanks for reading!
I can’t wait to se the new 2017 ZR 6000R XC sled, should be a riot and can’t wait to get mine.
In the box, RS 8000 ( 860 ). Do you know the build date for RS 6000
What ever is in the box, I am sure it will be awesome! To all the Arctic Insiders going to Haydays this year, have a great time, take lots of pictures for us back in northern Maine who can’t be there! Hope the weather is good, the deals are great and the racing dominated by Arctic Cat! Have fun!
That Ekre shirt is epic……lol
Likely snow bike and 600 race sled. But cat is in the underdog position and hungry. Very hungry. So a new limited build early release 800plus cc ctec maybe?
If it was, it would put a washday shine on Haydays and make it a seriously awesome event again.
There’s been too many years of everyone already knowing “what’s in the box” from the Internet and planned corporate “leaks.” Then the box opens up and meh…
A truly unexpected un boxing would put a chub in the pants of even the most cynical. I’m waiting with loose fitting pants in hopes of something good.
Well Cat has to do something about the 800cc sled? As this sled is falling behind the times with it’s older EFI system and a little down on HP compared to the other boys.
If they went to the new CTec 2 engine in an 800cc or bigger, I’d cancel my ZR 6RXC sled and get this new one.
Its 3pm EST here in Michigan,, and here’s the Question— What was in the box ??!! c’mon, Inquiring minds wanna know !!
Nice looking race sleds for 2017. I like the colour scheme. It’s nice to see the SX sled go to EFI.
Looks like AC was hard at work with nothing new. The Yamaha mountain sled (King Cat) with orange paint stuffed into a Mountain Cat with the new plastics and the RS 600 XC with some add on’s. Old news.
The SX is Speedworx special…should be sweet…but not Cat’s work.
Come on Cat…you are better than that. Disappointment.
Skidoo and Polaris continue to rule the roost. unfortunately. Why spend the money on a wooden box? Part bin specials.
The people who made the top secret box decision should be punished. Drop them off in the middle of nowhere with nothing but box stock 2012 procross turbo 1100’s. Even if they make it home, they’ll have black lung from belt smoke.
What a taco bell level of synical marketing. If your going to go to the trouble to put a box together, put something real in it. Something non obvious. Something “secret”.
does the RS 6000 share the new tunnel ( front and REAR cooling system ) as the new ZR 6000 R XC cross country ?
Ok, I missed the opening of the box. What was inside?
While I was at Haydays….a little bird told me the 800 c-tech will be here real soon !
Good things happen to people that wait !
Loyal Cat People will keep the faith.
