fastest this year?

what do you think is goin to stick out this year? Last year, i think it was the mach z skidoo, and probably it will this year. I dont know alot about the new 2007 sleds , does anyone have some facts?

Yamaha has a few head turners this year, namely the Phazer, which I think is super ugly.

Arctic Cat just introduced the new f series. Totally new and with the 1000cc engine it should be AWESOME. There is also the new Jaguar. That has the newest and best 4 stroke in the biz. Considering it has a power stroke every 2 strokes like a 2 stroke!

the phazer definitely won't be the fastest, but could possibly be the most fun. The mach is reigning champ when it comes to out-of-the-box top speed. But the F1000 should give it a run for its money. No speed from polaris this year though. And the yammi 4strokes just keep gettin better. Should shape up to be an interesting season. I can't wait to see how the new sleds perform.

I do think it would be fun to have a new phazer, but they look to WEIRD!!!! The smaller engine is cool, it is so light that it is crazy. And personally i dont like the new cats! I would rather have a crossfire or the older fire cats. Not these weird things.

I thought it was weird that polaris isn't going to have a 900 this year.

I heard the 900 and 700 might not be back for 3 or 4 years cuz they have to redesign the whole engine!

Polaris dropped the 900 this year and are bringing out a new 700 that has 140hp. Much better than the 700 last year which was actually a 755. That was the same block as the 900, they were both cancelled but they 900 may be back in the future.

Well what i have heard through the grapevine is stock-for-stock the mach walks on the f1000 for all out top end speed.

Now from there either sled can be improved through clutching and gearing, We will just have to wait and see what happens with the modded sleds...

polaris has a 700 but its the tried and true 700 from the edge chassis with power valves.Not their 750. Its sill fuel injected as is some of their 600s.The new cats do look ugly but pump out the same h/p as the ski-doo 1000s. They also use 2 plugs per cylinder.
