Comes with a 3 year warranty......
Where as the cat comes with a 1 year.
More bad news for cat dealers.

Good on Yamaha! This is long overdue. I bet Fuji is smiling like crazy today. Any word on HP numbers?

Good to see them back in the game. Sounds like it runs cleaner than the cat

Is it actually a Yamaha engine?
Can't find any details on that.
Kind of doubt it.

Just saw EZ smokes post. Its the same engine as the Alpha but better calibration in the ECU.

Dawizman · Mar 9, 2020

Shouldn't this be in the Alpha section?

The all new(ish)
Yamma-Cat.

It's like an Alpha, but in blue.

Think Textron will sell Cats sled Division to Yamaha?

Team clutches. Prefer Yamaha's own clutches. Really just a cat dressed in blue

Well whatever it is, I really hope it works out well enough for Yamaha to entice them back to the game.

Looks good. However I think Tuning Forks need to placed into the “Head” of the Cat (all 3 of them). Cat been tuned.

heavily based on the Cat chassis. Look at the air intake duct in the front module as well as the A-arm geometry. Shows a triple motor. It does include some innovative language about new materials for the tunnel and steering support. Looks like an ancient application to lightweight the Sidewinder.

It looks like it was started on 2014...
