jdsky Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Turbo 4 stroke next year and they will have all of the bases covered. Then hopefully they can spend some time figuring out how to source some drive bearings that last more than a few hundred miles..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe the number of people I've seen online who've had bearing issues with so few miles. It's like ... WTF?!? With the snowmobile price increases from 2022 to 2023, a person would think (or hope!) the bean counters can find a bearing supplier that can produce a bearing that'll last a few seasons.

Gym doesn't believe this nonsense. Gym has never had a bearing issue. Gym feels it's the owner's fault. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was the HCS member that felt when you bring your new sled home from dealer (Polaris in this instance) it's up to the new owner to do a complete check over including engine and clutch alignment???? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that one is funny as hell. I cannot imagine in any universe where I feel compelled to shell out $15-20K and then have to check that huge list of known factory fuck ups. Even better is how the brand diehards will defend the manufacturer responsible for the shitty quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No relationship with the dealership i bought it from. It was the only 1 I could find in stock at the time. Dealer is 6hrs away. I'll just throw a new or used 1 on.

Gym would rather spray roost and ride wheelies on his Slash 9R. It's for fat lazy people with more $ than common to pose with. Obviously a 'let's use these parts up' bin sled from Catextron. Riot chassis, yep we have lots of those. Cobra 146's, of course... we still have 100's left over from 2021. Turbo Yammie mill, yessir get as many of these gone as quick as we can. How are we on 18 to current plastics? We're overstocked... get them sold. Where dare I ask are you riding a $la$h 9R newbie? We're mostly non hand signaling, washed up trail riders (Ricky Racers) here. Did Polaris throw in a free fire extinguisher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
