This sled will be at Yamafest.

OK DORK. This is the sled Yammy is building next season...NM has taken the initiative to get ahead of the game and will have a turbo set-up that is proven and tested...ahead of everyone. So go sit in your corner, shutup and let the big boys play while you're thinking about riding your 140hp sled in the fields around Eckville.

So if I drive to revy for the 6th can I ride it? Not in the praking lot either..... :d Maybe better let me ride it on the 7th so it is still shiney for the 6th hahahah! On a more serious note, Spill some details regarding the "low boost" kit(boost pressure, motor changes,etc) and cost to build that sucka based off a new viper. Front end width? U get a complete tunnel or just the cap? Chaincase/reverse alterations?

LOL That was meant to be humorous, not serious. I can't see NM letting me take his shiney new one-of sled out through the bush or up anything nasty. I would think he has a nice basically open area in mind for test rides. :beer::beer::beer:

Yes of course you can ride it. We want to make sure that its going to work, so I will let people ride it so I can get some good feedback.

The motor is stock so we won't be running big boost, but we think we can run a bit more than other low boost kits because of the water to air intercooler and bigger turbo.

We will come out with menu pricing for the New 2014 Viper, so if a customer wants to order one, then they can choose from a list of mods including tunnel cap, rails, skid, track options, drivers, belt drive, turbo kit options, skis, front end width, etc.

Our shop sled will be a 174x3 with our low boost kit and a coupled skid of somekind. We want to keep it under a 25k build that performs as well as previous 30-40k builds. Not everyone wants to climb a 1000 ft chute in 3 ft of pow, so we want to build more nimble all around sleds that shine in the trees, and still get around great in nipple deep pow.

I think people will be sprised how these sleds handle. I would guess they will be the most rider friendly four stroke sled ever.

Really cool to see how fast you hopped on this project. I have heard a lot of talk about the potential of these Vipers with a track and skid and turbo etc., but the talk usually stops at price... I think you will have a lot of interest when people see the finished product, the menu options, and how quick you can make it happen.

Kudos to you Neil! and they say that aftermarket shops can't survive, you just have to think outside the box before the crate shows up!!

did ypu use a Cat Hood? The proto type Viper I saw at T&T Powersports didn't have the intake grills and the instrument Pod looked different

Same chassis, but the weight distribution is quite different from the cat.

Nice work Neil looks steller.......Id like to see how it rides and handles comparied to my Cat 1100 as they would both be 4 strokes. Look forward to seeing it at Yamifest :)
