That must be it! my turbo is close to 300hp and I just couldn't handle the power of the cat. The cat handled ok and looks good but needs about 5 to 10 k worth of goodies to make it any kind of real performer but in the end could be a great sled I'm sure but out of the box like I said turd wagon just my opinion

Actually it probably was a pretty good trail sledWhat and yours wasnt a turd wagon outta the box until you put 5000-9000 bucks into it?
to make the 1100 cat what mine is would take the same I'm sureYour bagging on a sled cause it would take 5-10g to make it any good and you had to drop 35g on yours...Your the idiot...just sayin
it's all your fault then....?wow- i leave for a couple days...and it hits the fan....i was gonna share how comparible it was to the 2012 240 nytro that Chris Brown had,,,but i guess thats a waste...anyone that is interested let me know i would share it... but not on this quote "turd" fest whinners corner... no problem to have an oppinion folks...but keep it real,,, 5 red, 5 blue, who cares...whats the post about..? whats the question its not hard ?

well catman, I have to say (even knowing that the brand bashing, green bleeding, catpee smelling whiney biotches, and the french speaking, 16 wide loving, been making excuses up for poor handling sled for the last 4 years guys are going to hate this post), you have given the most honest ride report, and this was your own thread that you started yourself. You ride a cat, and you like their older version better (that's wicked, I like their older version better too!) It's hard to argue that a well set up well tuned m1000 cat will give ANY stock sled ever made a run for its money. Sometimes when boondocking but especially in straight out full on straight line hillclimbing. I say this and I'm a die hard poo guy....(Still would take my poo over your inferior sleds any day just for the record lol!)
Congrats on a good thread turned sour, but ending in a great post gone unrecognized by many!
JUst for the record, I miss the great argument threads like this one, the kind that we used to have on snowest before the whiners took control, that's why I came here, but guys, catman was asking for honest opipions here not douchebag ones
Well I started this thread and it has gotten a little off track but I now have answered my own question after a wicked weekend in Revy riding with the new M1100. Here is the unbiased truth: My M1000 will kill a stock 1100, I was shocked! Now one fellow had a M11 with a 3" 174 track and the Boondocker box which put him just around the 200 hp range and we did some serious climbing and comparing. On a long pull my machine would keep up with him untill the top of the hill where I had to sidehill a bit to make it he went straight up so he did have more holding power. This was the closest comparison to how my machine is equipped so it was an awesome comparison, as fair as you could get I think. Now I then asked to ride this machine and it was the best thing I could have done because I saved myself alot of money, remember that I LOVE MY CAT. This machine is heavy! This machine feels like an Xp with weight added to the front end and I was shocked at the effort it took to throw it around which the owner also agreed. The power is good but it is doggy on the bottom end and I dont think it would be a great boondocking in the trees macine at all, once it wound up it did feel like it had more than my machine but not much which we proved on our hillclimb comparison. The ride felt good but I did not pound down a trail to get that feel but I did notice the front end felt plush. I may get some bashing here but I will tell you all that unless they make some pretty drastic improvements to the sled I will not be snowchecking one as I originally planned and I may have to run the old M1000 another year or so! Thanks for all the good info on here.
