Being from the East Coast(don't hold it against me) I'd like to see a 60" wide with about 120HP for the trails.

You will want the one with the smaller 847cc engine then.

Little brother with 120 ponies, 60" and good travel would sell like hot cakes on the east coat

Don't think they'll be making something like that since they just came out with the Wolverine R-Spec.
Nice rig but just a newer version of the rhino with some nicer factory upgrades.

I say 64'' paddle shifters, 19'' to 21'' inch wheel travel, 30'' tires, Ground clearance 13.5'', power steering, 3 cylinder 135 hp non turbo, colors the old yellow n black, blue, n yellow
Price $ 21,999.00

I think they will also come out with a 60'' paddle shifters, 17'' to 18'' wheel travel, 28'' tires, Ground clearance 13''. power steering, 100 hp engine non turbo, colors blue, yellow, black. Price $ 16,499.00

I have a feeling that they will bring out 2 sport models.

64" cvt trans with shift on fly hi-lo, 27" tires 18"-19" travel 13.5 ground clearance, 3 cyl, 135 na horsepower, blue/white and green colors first(other colors later) modified a-arm style rear suspension, ac style seating position (lower in frame) = base model. Upper model (6 months later) will have optional Internal by-pass shocks and 2" more travel. 3rd year will see no cvt, motorcycle style sequential shifting 5 or 6 speed, and 150 turbo hp (aftermarket flash 180hp) IBP shocks standard.

Just a guess.

 

[Kalop]

I have no idea. I'm pretty sure no one does that's telling.

Whatever Yamaha comes with, IMO, it won't be under 20K, that's for sure.

 

[ls68firebird]

oh yeah base model 1st year 23,999, top line 26,999. by year three-26,999 and 29,999

 

[zztop]

Yes the 64'' will be over $20,000 n if they come out with a 60'' that will be under 20 for sure. W/o a turbo should keep the price down.

 

[Hollywood]

Still would like to get a confirmation that it will be the Gen 2 Wildcat frame? Just can't see it, what's in in for AC? Yamaha motor and quality in that frame, don't see many people buying a new Wildcat, whenever/whatever that will be.

Hope it has a new fresh look like this

100" wheelbase
64" wide
59" tall
125-155 horse
30" tires
16-20" travel
Triple exhaust

I'm guessing you guys are a bit low on your price estimates.
Yamaha knows that Polaris has a huge following with the RZR and it will take a lot more than a lower price to compete.

Yamaha will be lower than Polaris for sure, N w/o the turbo will help to keep it a lot lower. Where Yamaha will hurt Polaris in a big way is quality quality n more quality. jmho, But time will tell that's for sure.
