To old and will never stud. Also hate carnage on my toys. Have never as much as bent a bumper since 10th grade. I ride like I borrowed my sleds now a day. How long ago was it you said that the ZR6000RXC were built?? Here's the latest production update from AC: Quote Dear Valued Dealers, We continue to work through the last of our model year 2023 snowmobiles and ship as many completed units to the channel as possible. Please see below for important updates. Snow Updates ZR 6000 129 R XC US BLK and 129 ES R XC US BLK are waiting on shocks. We have been informed by our supplier that the body for the rear track shock is delayed. In order to get parts this month, the rear track shock body will receive black anodization instead of the standard Kashima coating. As communicated in the last update, it will likely take us until mid-March to ship all the product.

Here's the latest production update from AC: I didn't know there was still undelivered sleds. So what's real dumb about ordering sleds is the gamble. I'm not worried about not having A sled to ride. But if it's not there til mid February I'm out. But does that mean I'd be out the $500 deposit or whatever it is? There should be a clause where if the sled isn't delivered by X date, you get your money back at least. Maybe they already do that? If not though that's a bunch of BS. You have to give them money and hope they deliver your product in time to use. And if they don't and you want out they keep your money? That would not help me commit to a spring order. Especially when the prior year sleds still aren't delivered. You're asking alot from customers to do that.

I think but am uncertain the racers who ordered through the race dept got theirs (first run) but it's the consumers who ordered RXCs that are waiting. Did this apply to any other models that normally get kashima coated shocks? IDK but I agree that if you preorder in March or April there's no real good excuse not to have your new sled by the first of the year... regardless of brand.

Some racers who maybe ordered 2 or 3 were shorted 1 with a to be built later date. Not sure if they ended up with them yet or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dealers in my area have many brand new, ‘23 Boosts and 9R’s sitting in showrooms while winter ticks away. I suspect they are from buyers who backed outta their snowchecks as they watched interest rates rise. Who the fuck would pay 6-9% on a $23,000 mountain sled?

A boon docker pump gas kit is 5600 bucks. Add that to a 163 inch n/a rmk and you are right in the 23k ball park. both options are stupid expensive. I am waiting for the rebate game to come back into the sled world. We are doing one for the first time in years at my work. Last time we did one was like 6 years ago. I bet it isn’t far away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do a search for a boost RMK Khaos. They are retarded expensive. But from what I’ve watched on YouTube, a 163” Boost is the bare minimum sled required to break trail through 3” of fresh across a soybean field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get nothing, it'll be a ice groove in no time. They get a bunch of snow, it'll be a terrain race on a lake with some grooved out corners.
