What are Arctic Cat and Yamaha going to share front suspension components now?

Looks like a Cat. Maybe they are merging like all the rumors say.

Gotta be the triple. Another sled with a 4 stroke isn't game breaking like they promised is it?

Yamaha says "Industry First".. So is that the merger... Or just the stock yamaha purchased of the Cat.. Or a new drive system??? I guess we find out on the 20th!!! Oh could it be 170hp Cross Plane (X) Triple N.A.

I will say one thing. They have been gold for the aftermarket mod guys.

That's what he wants also. Don't think it's gonna happen, but would be cool sled with a turbo.

Whats with the the one brake side a-arm, looks like it disappears?...almost looks photoshopped. Chipped paint on the spindle?

The windshield is a bit ridiculous. It's hard to tell from such small resolution. To me, it looks like the windshield is a bit too sharp of an image compared to the fuzziness of the handlebar and the riders hands....I dunno.

I'll put 20 on fake.

If it's real I would tend to think with all that venting in the front maybe it to get air to a intercooler? Maybe its the first stock triple 4stroke to be turbo.

Last I knew the Nytro motor was already crossplane...??? Every Piston fires one after the other. Not like the apex motor which fires 2 pistons at a time. The RX1 is crossplane as it fires every piston the same as the nytro motor.
