Let the Predictions start, What's in for 2023??

[lilduke]

Kinda like the 10% more power the 850 has ( @ 165hp) than the 800 etec that we bragged about having 163.9hp for what 5-6 years ?

Sure doesnt feel like 10% more power, or go 10% farther up a hill.


So not sure what to believe. I need my own dyno.

I think these would have some potential, still really in the R&D phase but I'd take one for a lap

if you get on an 850 and an 800 back to back, the response, extra power, extra torque is extremely noticeable. No secret BRPs 800 etec numbers were inflated

Quoted from Bookface:

Brp in Canada
8% increase for 2023 sleds over 2022

 

[NoBrakes!]

inflation is easily 6%....

Was a Martin's west today, if you didn't hop on the micro deposit train you are automatically # 128 down the turbo list.
Sales told me no guarantees at this stage in the game.

Wow. That’s basically in a round about way saying go to another dealer because our list is full? If I wanted to deal there and they said no guarantees I’d go where there was a guarantee.

Ya i have an old ptec 146 for spring bashing, starts no problem 1st or 2nd pull.

Ya but the manual recoil only lasts for 20 pulls

will be interesting when BRP drops this bomb on the 14th and everyone wants one.........

 

[NoBrakes!]

goddamn it.

you make the top 10 on the list at Martins? (he asked jokingly)

the idea was if you wanted to deal there it was recommended you preorder, they made it pretty clear months in advance trying to get ahead of these supply shortages. You can still order a sled there, will you get it? who knows? There isn't even a guarantee the people on the list ahead of you are getting one! no one knows! We have been through this lol. Where's my bat so i can beat this dead horse some more..You said this was a great idea KEN!!!

As far as i understand it right now, there is no dealer that is guaranteed anything. So we will see on the 14th what happens!

id bet most of the difference in "felt" power and acceleration/climbing is more attributed to the pitch and lower rotating mass on the gen4 tracks than the engine
