jtssrx Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 (edited) Why is it these dipshits can't figure out how to seal these things? You would think with the belt blowing issues they have they've figured out a way to keep oil and gas from spraying out of these valves. I have a little over 2000 miles on my 850 and oil and gas is everywhere. I never leaked an ounce of oil or gas out of my SRX's back in the day.

Roosting Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Seems like they updated the o-rings or what ever they use but even if you fix it it will leak again in under a 1000mi. That's straight from the Doo service tech's mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anler Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 Polaris 800ho has been 100% problem free in over 4000 miles. Its the real 850 class 800. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate the company, but my last 3 sleds have been Doos because they make what I think is the most reliable sled and have some great dealers, at least here in the northeast. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so many people with 800 problems. I think they hit a home run with the 900T. It’s the only Doo I would consider buying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anler Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 In hindsight I'm glad I stuck with the poo 800ho. It appears to be the most reliable 800 nowadays. Weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is. plus did you noticed it when you select 600R on MXZ XRS the options fade out but as soon as you pick 850 the options come back, stupid if you ask me. its like Ford graying out options on 5.0L unless you go with 3.5 EB which you won't see that shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I think it’s all about Ski-Jew forcing you to buy the top of the line model or motor so they make the most money they can. I’m pretty sure the new gauge/gps is only available on the 850. What kills me is besides the 4 strokes not being available in a 129, you still can’t get a 900 Ace with decent quality shocks or gauges because there’s no X package. I could go on and on, but Doo is becoming an extra greedy company and I wish Polaris would come out with a motor I want. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huge mistake. Yep, very stupid. Not everyone wants an 850. They're fucking the ones who want the upgrades but don't want the 850, or a Renegade. Happens in the auto industry too. Can't get leather, 4A or LEDs, to make a few options, on an F150 unless you get a Lariat or higher. That's marketing. It's BS, but that's how they make $ 2 hours ago, rump-rider said: Agreed.

They're fucking the people who don't want an 850. Yep it's completely idiotic. No reason you shouldn't be able to snow check a sled how you want it. Same with the colors, tracks, ect. Polaris can do it, so can Doo. Polaris has the best snow check program. They will continue to gain customers while SkiDoo keeps fucking theirs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
