I'll be waiting for the review.......
4-strokes blow the rev out of the water

never was a fan of the REV chassis, worked on a quite a few and they are a pain in the ass. and the few i drove just didnt impress me. the only place the rev had a advantage was in the rough whoops and thats primarily because of the rider forward design. was glad to see ski-doo finally wake up and realize that trailing arms were a poor design compared to a true a-arm setup like cat has always run.

i drove the z1 the first year it came out, was amazing

now with a turbo the only thing that has a shot in keeping up in both speed and mileage is the yamaha platform.

2-3 times as far on a tank of gas, more hp, more torque, easier maintenance ...

snowmobile riders are more brand biased than auto fans i'd say though so its a argument that will never end
