I have noticed that the Bombardier web site now says the Regular DS weighs 490lbs.?? What is goin on? I thought it weighed 460.

Did they add something to the new DS??

It is a set-up when they come out with a new 390 lbs DS650. Then they can say they removed 100 lbs from the old DS

with my 6ply shredders it weighed in at 490(wet) last weekend, I figure the shredders are 8-10lbs heavier (each ) than the stock tires- it's no feather weight!
