Well, the one video clip I posted of it... is with a straight pipe installed. I already put the stock muffler back on, cuz I don't want any issues with the DNR.

I'm looking for more blowoff sound as well as maybe a bit more throaty sound. Bikeman makes some VERY attractive looking kits for this sled! :rofl:

Yeah.... if I wanted to spend A LOT more $. They aren't without issue either.

Besides, once the alignment issue is addressed, these sleds aren't bad and can make great power just as reliably as a Yamaha (you nut swinger [MENTION=16]PANDA[/MENTION]).

You are paying for reliability. That is the reason people give away those cats.

I wouldn't listen to what a Arctic Cat dealer tells you about them. He wants to sell you a new sled. I wouldn't listen to what the previous owner told you. He wants to sell you his problem. Only way to tell is your own personal experience with that particular sled after you start riding it. You just gotta hope that thing won't give you issues.

OH NEGATIVE NANCY [MENTION=16]PANDA[/MENTION]. Keep your undies on. They're plenty reliable. I've done more research than listening to one guy at a AC dealer, or just the previous owner. There are entire forums out there dedicated to these sleds.

If it gives me issues, I've done enough looking around for solutions that things should be easily enough repaired. Again, not like its my only sled to ride.

It's the price you pay to have MORE fun sometimes [MENTION=16]PANDA[/MENTION]! Just gotta deal with a bit of uncertainty in your day.... which I'm fine with in exchange for all the smiles this thing is sure to plaster on my face!

You knew I'd have to drag it out... [MENTION=16]PANDA[/MENTION] just kicked off the fun and encouraged me to spill it slowly.

Don't worry. You will take turns dragging each other. Dan will drag you and Carter in a race. And you can drag him back by tow strap after he breaks.......:bigthumb:

2012 Best of the Best
Arctic Cat F1100 Turbo

Arctic Cat engineers not only created a scary fast and powerful straight-line snowmobile that delivers 177 horses from a boosted 1100cc four-stroke twin, but they proved beyond any doubt that such a four-stroke sled can be light, nimble and a cornering animal. The 2012 Turbo F1100 leaves you screaming for more like a kid on the world’s fastest roller coaster. Rolling on the power out of a wide sweeper has to be how a Lamborghini driver must feel flicking turns on California’s Pacific Coast Highway.

:bigthumb: and the 2013 is the same sled with a handful of smaller tweaks and improvements over the '12.
