I said it before it will be funny when a 0.2c hose clamp causes these issues for the poo. I checked all mine and things seem fine had to push the PTO side one on a tiny bit and put the clamp over the barb. It is pretty stupid they can't come up with a better clamp.

That doo carnage was from a connecting rod bolt backing out that wasn't torqued properly. Was a big issue for the my17 850s but I guess there wasn't enough cat and poo fags to jump all over it like a pile of school girls. He had 3 weeks of down time waiting for a motor. That's the only issue I have if something catastrophic like that happens. Edited December 30, 2018 by Reevester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKIQPilot Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Dang. Every 850 should be inspected to confirm the check valves arent plugged and the oil lines are tight. Polaris should contact every owner immedately and schedule an inspection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine has 8hrs on it now so I have a feeling the valves are all fine but I'll be looking at bottom ones and mag side when I get home for the clamps and hoses pushed over the barb.

Did Polaris not wash their hands of the Dragon fiasco once a certain amount of money had been spent on warranty repairs? The 4 yr doesn't mean anything if your sled has had warranty work and a certain amount of money has been spent on it already. The warrant has a dollar value, once that is spent, you are SOL, or at least that is what I remember reading what some owners were being told about their Dragons.

What can go besides the engine really. I'm sure Poo will cover it. Quite happy with the other two I own and one (2012) was rebuilt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about that, Kev? I remember reading multiple stories about Polaris washing their hands with them. Everyone knew they were just looking for any excuse to deny and deny they did.
