2024 Snowmobile Wet Weights: We Weigh Every Sled in Our Fleet!

[@BERGERJeah]

I think we need to give Cat their credit here, they came with one mission and succeeded. I thought it was a possibility that it was going to be where the Catalyst wasn’t necessarily lighter but had better ergonomics that made it feel lighter. Turns out it’s both! Now just to see what this 858 has and then maybe we can party like it’s the 1970’s again?

[@ajbertelson9871]

Would be nice if they had weighed a procross

[@roberttalbott1713]

Any reason why they didn't weigh the fastest production trail sled, the Thundercat/SRX?? This guys made his test look stupid by not weighing the procross sled which is the fastest sled. Hands down, lol.

[@roberttalbott1713]

Exactly. ​@@ajbertelson9871

@@roberttalbott1713 I was surprised the Thunder Cat wasn’t weighed, but I’m sure it’s because they didn’t have it for the whole season.

[@northwash]

I'm glad to see this weigh-in back! Great job and I think you've done it the fairest way possible - fill everything up to the top. What does it weigh at the beginning of the day when you start to ride? That's what I want to know.

[@pajamatime5750]

Exactly. Fill er to the top. If someone really wants to figure out why a sled weighs 5lbs less they can compare capacities.

[@kyleblume6530]

I’m happy to see this come back!!!

[@mainenorthwoodshunter3265]

I was hoping one of the end surprises was going to be one of the electric sleds you have test-driven. That would have been a great comparison to see. Thanks for the video.

[@Ericsnowmobiler]

Would have liked to see this comparison with the prior models, glad to see it back though. All we heard with the rev’s was they’re the lightest thing there is. Then when the Axys was the lightest no one ever mentioned weight again other than four strokes were heavy. It seems the Matryx put on some weight compared to Axys

[@bigrickhbcycle]

I would love to see the original 2008 Ski-Doo MXZ TNT 500SS. A dry weight of 399 pounds was all the buzz at the time......Would love to see a real world weight on that one. Awesome job as always!! Keep up the great work!!

[@snowtrax]

Thank you!!

[@jaredsiple1487]

Great episode fellas! Just for fun would be the 90’s and 2000’s sled weights just for entertainment and reminiscing.

Would love to get some older iron on site to throw on the scale. That'd be fun. It would probably be super random, but would make for a good video.

[@4g63tpowered]

What about true back country sleds? That I would like to know because that's where weight means so much.... On a trail I was always under the assumption weight wasn't bad because of hook. Front and rear in the like. Boondocking I think where weight matters. Float, ease of mobility for the rider, and power to weight ratio. Those 3 I think is why weight is a big deal in the back country!

[@richb8282]

Thanks for doing this

[@bedlambikes]

Polaris VR1 850 Boost is 12 pounds lighter than the Doo 850 Turbo Comp even though the Polaris has an additional 2 gallons of gas in it, and electric start! That's huge considering the gas and battery combined is well over 25 pounds.

[@sppeders1]

Did he say it has Estart? My buddy bought one last year, got it home and went to pull it off the trailer only to find out at that time it was manual only. LOL.... Good times.

[@flyin427ford]

yup @@sppeders1

[@pavmentsurfer13]

We found out why the Turbo skidoo is heavier than the turbo Polaris when the non turbos are the opposite. It’s because the Skidoo is a Competition package which is considerably heavier than a standard XRS due to bigger shocks, 2 ply track, extra bracing and bigger brakes. There is no directly comparable Polaris turbo and unfortunately there is no NON turbo competition package. So we have no way to directly compare a ski-doo turbo and non turbo to find out how much it actually adds to the sled.

[@rideswift]

I think the real surprise here was the two 4 strokes. The Ski Doo 900r turbo is surprising how lite it is and the Polaris is surprising how heavy it is with out a turbo, inter cooler, charge piping... ect

[@snowtrax]

Agreed!

[@rideswift]

@@ACatKrom About 30 pounds?? I have ridden both the Renegade Xrs 900R turbo and a Sidewinder. The Renny feels like a 2 stroke in comparison

[@washburnsports7232]

I really like these weight videos of the true weights, pretty interesting.

[@snowtrax]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@BlaineDP]

Great video...thanks for weighing them all. It seems like the twin weights have pretty much been "the same" for years which is in that 520-580lb range full of fluids ready to ride. With the longer tracks, longer paddles and taller riding positions it seems like this is about as light as they can make them and not have chassis warranty issues. They tried to go super light weight with the 03 F-7 and it ended up being much heavier by its last year of production in 2006 because they had so many chassis cracking issues. I've weighed sleds over the years and when compared with a the 1994 T-cat (620lbs ready to ride), the 2000 121" ZRT 800 (620lbs ready to ride even with an extra heat exchanger in the rear of the tunnel) and a 2001 144" 1000cc mountain cat that weighs 640 lbs with only a little gas in it...the new sleds are lighter, make good hp for twins, have a better riding position (although you can add a bar riser and tall boss seat to an old sled and it improves it greatly), have longer tracks, longer lugs and more track behind the rider so better traction from a dead stop. Mountain sleds tend to be lighter but I believe that they have production sleds about as light as they can make them and still maintain structural integrity at a price point they can sell them. Sure you can go with carbon fiber ect...but that gets very expensive very quickly. Now it'd be interesting to take an older sled like a ZRT and put a 141" procross skid under it, a boss seat ect..and weigh it. :)

[@kompro427]

When I was a teenager I had a 1972 Polaris TX335...40 hp and only 345 lbs...what a blast that sled was! Why don't manufacturers build smaller light sleds is beyond my comprehension. They should listen to what experienced sledders want. No wonder the Dodge Challenger, Camaro and Mustang all went back to their basic retro looks.

[@CBCycles]

Agree 100% - light is right. The manufacturers might be worried that a smaller stripped down sled wouldn’t sell. But I’m with you, get back to snowmobiles roots while still using the latest technology.

[@shelhawke7206]

It's certainly interesting, I like to see the actual riding weight of each sled. It's also nice to know, there's really not a big difference between models ! Enjoy the snow all you sledheads !

[@bmxmann]

I like that you did the 2000 ski do in there! Would be cool to have a 10,20,30 year comparison video.

[@snowtrax]

🙌

[@remistrailcamvideos6306]

Should also mention the Nighblade headlight when talking about the Polaris’. That headlight weighs 12lb compared to the 2lb LED in the XC and S4

[@FireRisinWithin]

Every generation it seems skidoo is narrowing the weight gap between their 2 strokes and 4 strokes while at the same time increasing comfort and build quality. Good competition and a wide product range between all manufacturers can only be good for us, the enthusiasts! I would be very interested in weighing more vintage snowmobiles. My 500ss xp is supposed to weight a bit over 500 lbs and I would love to see if that is actually the case!

[@braedonlee-haines4660]

I hear the 500ss weighed 399 at dry weight!

[@shanefleming1981]

Great job… thank you for doing this! This is how all sleds should be weighed… ready to ride.

Agree, dry weight is a useless figure since no one rides their sled with no oil and no gas.

Good info and love the commentary! Some surprising weights in there!

[@KcYukon]

Would love to see some older sleds like the Suzuki 1100 turbo or the Yammy 4 stroke, or the M800 older model or even firecat vs Indy wedge... All kinds of options you should weight the new models and throw some older models like you did for kicks...

[@pavmentsurfer13]

[@welderteach]

Very interesting, A few surprises too! Great work gentlemen! Love it

[@snowtrax]

Thank you!!

[@joedoe6444]

the big thing missing in this to be a true riding weight comparison is the actual snow buildup. you need to run them through the snow for a half-hour or so and let the snow/ice cake on in the different nooks and crannies, then weigh them. some sleds are really good at not letting snow build up on them, and others will pack in a lot of snow in the track suspensions, heat exchangers and rails. this is where the true riding weight needs to be measured.

[@snowtrax]

Would be interesting to compare the wet weights before and after packing them up with snow.

[@farmingnodak]

@@snowtrax day to day in varying conditions will play a part too... might need to do several weight tests and record them over the course of the riding season with differing snow and temps and get the average snow weights. Cold, dry sledding days will be different than melting, warm days.

[@pavmentsurfer13]

This isn’t a realistic option at all. EVERY ride will result in different levels of snow build up on every sled. It’s also not valid because people who ride in different places and in different conditions will get different weights. We would literally have to weight every sled after every ride while also noting every aspect of every ride. Even after all that, it STILL wouldn’t represent every rider in every condition. the ONLY fair way to weight sleds is exactly how we did it.

[@snowtrax]

@@pavmentsurfer13 Gotta agree with Luke on this one. Not everyone's gonna like how we do it, but it is the fairest way possible. 🤷‍♂

[@perryholeman2650]

And rider weight

[@jeffreycervoni5859]

Very nice ! Great job !

[@TwistedSXS]

I find it interesting the levelling strap on the Cat and Polaris was to the front and hooked to that back of the Ski-doo’s. Riding both Doo and Polaris the Doo feels heavy on the front. Interesting, great video.

[@mikeskidmore6754]

Skidoo should option shot starting on all 2 stroke models.. Then I would add a small battery to power accessories when the engine is shut off.

[@otahu26]

The polaris Wedge Is still by far the lightest sled with power and easier on fuel then techy new sleds. We seen this recently with Todd cycle weighting his triple triple 680 at 588lbs full tank of gas and 144 inch track. with studs. Plus they where the warmest sleds to drive hands down. No manufacture seems to do wind tunnel test anymore only computer simulations which do nothing for real world testing at minus 20. Doing 80mph creating your own Windchill's.

[@michaelcopeland8985]

I will say my 03 edge was warm, but I sweat a lot with my 09 assault. I even have to stand up to cool off. The new ones are colder.

In the spring weigh a sidewinder Ltx le with eps weighed in at 667

[@joerutkowsky3261]

I think this is so funny. I have a 2006 Yamaha attack 136 with mechanical reverse. And I get all the time “ oh Yamaha is so heavy. They are junk” but it is 575 pounds dry. The Polaris Indy xc prostar s4 you weighed is heavier. And I really don’t care that the new ones handle better. I don’t drive 100 mph in the trails anyway. But thanks for your video it was entertaining. I like all your videos (except the sxs ones ) keep up the good work.

[@123devinzz1]

guys said the same about the older triples. in reality a 1998 vmax 700 is actually lighter than a 2024 mxz. low center of gravity and poor riding position is what makes them feel so heavy.

[@jeffb9306]

The Backcountry was light for a 146 and 850. Pretty impressive by Doo.

Would have been lighter with Shot Start.

[@samuelfink1619]

I’m just sad there wasn’t a sidewinder in here for comparison. They’re not done quite yet! 😭

Did you notice the weight difference with the skidoo's from this weight video and the last one you put out 7 months ago? Quite the difference. The polaris weight was the same but skidoo is around 60lbs difference.

[@jasonfreake9020]

Great vid thanks. I was surprised by a few. I wonder how the size of the fuel tank makes a difference in the wet weight. I have a new Comp and a 23 Boost. Doo is really making great numbers on their 4strokes. Not a big penalty for 4stroke longevity and performance!

[@bedlambikes]

I don’t know… 60 pounds more than their 600 XRS is pretty substantial

No way something is wrong. 630lbs… And this year‘s competition turbo with a longer track, bigger gauge, bigger shocks weighs less than last year‘s 129 blizzard 850? No way

[@snowtrax]

Don't know what to tell you except, Doo isn't sitting on its hands. They'll shave weight, change things up a little lighten up an ounce or two here or there each season and it adds up.🤷‍♂

[@WilliamSchaefer-i8g]

Thought the same thing there is no way the 900 r is lighter than an 850 with identical specs , if that's true why would you ever buy a 2 stroke if it's heavier

[@frankdepalma4409]

What are the size of the gas tanks ,any difference in capacities.

[@bedlambikes]

[@snowtrax]

We didn't have these specs on-hand. Something we can include in the future for more comprehensive weigh-ins.

[@scottrocher1388]

The Polaris holds 10L more fuel than the Skidoo so there is 8lbs for sure. I would have preferred it if you weighed them all with the same amount of fuel in them.

[@pajamatime5750]

A wet weights a wet weight. They can’t do everything. Customers have to use their brains a bit and compare capacities if it comes down to that little of a difference…. You don’t see manufacturers saying “wet weight but we hold 10 liters more fuel than the competition”.

[@bluebirddayz5722]

The ski doos should be weighed with a full gas caddy on the back. I'm a doo guy true and true, but one thing i always disagreed with is them cutting the tank size back to 35 liters from 40.

[@Kowalski301]

It's pointless to weigh the sleds with the same amount of fuel... 5 gallon of fuel in a poo will weigh exactly the same as 5 gallon of fuel in a doo. (31 lb) You can just as well weigh them with an empty tank, and calculate from that and the actual tank volume, not just what the specs says.

[@Growerman211]

Turbos are not a direct comparison, doo is a 137 but polaris makes a 129 which will drop many lbs more, idk why doo wouldn't have offered both lenghts for trail racing u just can't beat a 129 in the tight cornors and switchbacks

[@pavmentsurfer13]

They’re also not a direct comparison because the skidoo is a Competition package… it’s a heavy package.

PLEASE PLEASE weigh my Yamaha RSVenture GT. Its gotta be 6 or 7 tons I'm sure.

[@snowtrax]

😆

[@Bidtobuy1]

Wat too in the tank for Ski-Doo. I have even spoke with a Ski-Doo dealer stating you can get these sleds too light and they just don’t feel planted.

[@braedonlee-haines4660]

Skill issue

[@stschryer]

Weigh some classic stuff , like an enticer 340

[@jonathansouza6549]

Was the catalyst a 137 or 129

[@chasf1066]

Unless I missed it you didn`t say how much gas was in each sled. Seeing the Polaris has a 12 gallon tank and the others are 9 gal. Food for thought LOL

[@snowtrax]

Yeah, we didn't go into the fuel capacities for each sled, which is something we could go into in the future for a more comprehensive weight-in. Reality is this is how they're rolling onto the snow for you each time you go for a rip. Manufacturers do the dry weight and we give you the real world wet weights. 🤷‍♂

[@sportsman1776]

A Matryx fuel capacity is listed at 11.5 gallons, and REV Gen5 is listed at 9.5 gallons - which is about 12 pounds. 12 pounds I'd gladly accept on my Ski-Doos - I wish they had a bigger tank like Polaris.

[@Trad-Am]

Just include the mountain class, where the weight really matters!

[@snowtrax]

We don't have any mountain sleds. We're in flatland country here in Ontario.

[@isiahsmith4927]

You guys should weigh a 2004 ski doo elite just for fun

[@snowtrax]

If we had an Elite, someone would always be riding it and we'd never be able to get it on the scale! 😆

[@pavmentsurfer13]

We’d have to get a new scale. I don’t think the one we have is rated for that kind of beef.

[@happyindeed6392]

What is fuel capacity of a new catalyst.

[@SuperHurtman]

37,5 L

[@lucascady4992]

Weigh one of those Electric Sled's please!

[@snowtrax]

If we get a Taiga, we will do this immediately. Will have to fill it up with electricity first though 😆

[@mikeskidmore6754]

Seems some Skidoos have 10 gallon gas tanks and can go father on 10 gallons than other brands go on 12 gallons of gas.

[@jerryculler6582]

Yes it says in your fleet but if you title this video 2024 weigh in then you should find a way to weigh all manufacturers even if one will unfortunately be leaving the market. Probably would surprise people to see actually the weight of the Yamaha and Yamaha/artic cat joint sleds be fair to all not exclude. Let it snow let it snow!!!!

[@bigchaloopa]

I guess Poo FINALLY decided quality means more than weight😮

[@jasonpostma8695]

I thought the same thing…and am ok with it!

[@MindyGangler]

WHERE IS THE SIDEWINDER

[@stevencaughlin2900]

I'm surprised the Assault was lighter than the VR1

[@shred_alaska]

Where are the mountain sleds?

[@snowtrax]

Probably in BC or someplace mountainous where they should be. We're in Ontario Canada. Mtn sleds are wasted here. When we test mountain sleds we're either in Montana or BC without a scale.

[@PaulO-ew3hd]

No weight on a Yamaha transporter lite or Arctic Cat blast 4000 lt? Wtf

[@snowtrax]

Very specific sleds to be angry about leaving out. For the record we do not have either of these sleds on hand.
