Wheelies for days! Fun watching you rip that Catalyst in some real snow. Looks rowdy. Rear Track shock lockout might be the ticket for when you're trying to keep the skis down.
Mine is the blue one like your buddy's but mine is a 154. We're finally getting our first dumper up around Tahoe so we'll be heading out soon to get some break-in miles. I'm hoping it'll handle better than my '23 Khaos 850. From what everybody has said (including you), it sounds like it will!
Weight is a huge one. This sled feels so natural to ride compared to the ascender chassis. It requires very minimal rider input to make it do what you want. I'm stoked to get more time on it.
The high idle kicks in when the engine temps are higher, increases circulation at an idle . I always let it idle down before shutting down using only happens to me after long pulls or hitting shoots multiple times.
@@jiggyquinn5635 I doubt they're pissed. They've been on Polaris since 2011 pretty much. So I doubt they're gonna be mad about 14 years riding better sleds than what Arctic Cat was putting out. 2011 M8 was great. Then the 2012 Praying mantis chassis came out and it was not better. Polaris Pro then Axys, then Matryx was the superior chassis for handling and they don't pay for motors so reliability doesn't factor in. Just doing rowdy stuff on the best chassis was what they were after. Glad Arctic Cat is catching back up after 14 years letting Polaris and then skidoo take their lunch money (market share).
Man I hope these new Cats really catch on, the market desperately needs AC to be relevant! Looking good so far...
Loving the sound of the 858! Great rip! Showing solid durability! Thanks for that!
@@scottdarling229 thanks for watching!

@2WheelKam oh yeah, for sure. I was just having to much fun doing wheelies to care haha
Stomp grips are the way to go! Clean setup🙌🏻
Thanks man. Can't wait to see you get after it this season!
Nice. First video I seen with someone ripping the 858 the way your supposed to. Earned my sub.
@@samueldysart thanks dude, appreciate that.
Wow, that’s the way to break her in!
Such a dope video. Glad you went cat again.
@@AlmostGoodSledding thanks buddy!
Good video buddy 💪🤩
Thanks dude!

Thats aweaome congrats on the new ride, You won't be disappointed.
Patiently waiting it’s so hard 🤣 they look so fun
Awesome edit man that catalyst Fucn. Chews bud!!
@@westsmith5738 hell yeah buddy
Wicked riding dude!, I figured you'd get one
@MMikeHD3904 thanks man, yeah I just had to... haha
Great action! 👍
What're the biggest changes you've noticed riding so far between the ascender and catalyst chassis?
Weight is a huge one. This sled feels so natural to ride compared to the ascender chassis. It requires very minimal rider input to make it do what you want. I'm stoked to get more time on it.
Banger vid 😎👍
How does that track on the new 858 do, does it like to washout on the side hills like the previous Artic Cat sleds
im waiting as fast as i can to get my m858 sno pro home
You ever try the new Polaris 900R as well>
worried about shock prices after getting a brand new sled... priceless
Where do you keep the clutch tool and spark plug tool
@kilafranz I have a none ES model so I keep those tools under the seat where the battery would go.
@Trevsleds did yours come with a plug tool?
@kilafranz no they don't unfortunately
Awesome video! Sounds and looks killer! What elevation are you riding in?
@brandonlafrenz7859 thank you! Around 6000'
thanks for posting . i got mine(black 154")and going to take out this week
Great video! Is it the stock can?
@AlexanderBjornerback thank you. Yes, stock can.
Does the 165 wheelie like the 154 does?? guessing it doesn't but ??
@wesdailey9964 the 165 is actually very playful, it surprised me.
@@Trevsledsnice sure it doesnt come up as quick but power difference between the 800 ctec 2 and the 858 should make a huge difference!!!
How many miles before yours started running that good
@joshkoltes 3.5 hrs on the engine before break in is completely done
@Trevsleds you rode it 3.5 hours before this ride?
@joshkoltes , in this video was combined 2 days of riding. Everything smoothed out after 3 5hrs of engine run time
the sled rips.
@@SLEDZ154 hell yeah
Is Rogue concepts still in business?
@@tylerdezeeuw7185 I'm unsure at this point.
Impressive, have you burned up the breakin chip in this video?
@@lewisbrazil5485 yes it's out of break in
Thing rips, I ride trail on the east coast and am picking up my 858rxc Saturday. Yours still have the annoying high idle like the 800’s do?
@@410notch haha sometimes they do, not sure why!
Where on the east coast?
@@GraniteStateBackcountry I live in Connecticut and ride in Vermont and Maine
The high idle kicks in when the engine temps are higher, increases circulation at an idle . I always let it idle down before shutting down using only happens to me after long pulls or hitting shoots multiple times.
The high idle is to cool the engine down, it also throws in extra fuel to cool internally
YEAH BUDDY KEEP THAT WHITE STUFF COMING!!!!!
Weoooo!!!
858 naysayers .... How's that crow with the feathers still attached !!!😭😭😎😎
Yup, I bet Burandt and Kesterke are just P.Oed they walk away from AC🙄
