The drain plugs caused plenty of problems on Pro Ride and IQ chassis when the case threads strip or idiots cross thread them. Seen a fair share of those. I always pull the chain case cover at the beginning of the year. The belly panel isnt even worth talking about its 4 quick fasteners and a screw. The caliper is 2 bolts, rotor is one. Battery few bolts. The biggest pain in the dick of the whole job is reinstalling the muffler springs. Which if you ever pull the chain cover on a IQ or Pro Ride you're doing the same thing. Basic job like I said. Edited September 15, 2023 by EvilBird 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing I see more piled up Skidoos than any other brand because of their impressive sales numbers?

(I posted a thread with real world weights, from a video SnowTrax did) They [Polaris] also are riddled with recalls. And that explains why Cat is late to the table with their big bore. Heck it's not even coming out for another year. Barring any complications Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building more supposedly than Cat, but if you are not selling them, then you have an over priced, recall ready carry over. Typical Polaris response though. Are you stupid enough to believe what you type?? Factory guys at haydays admit that AC builds 80 sleds a day... Last year they built more sleds for yamahaha and ski doo, than arctic cat dealers. I know that holding a sign all day means your math isn't very good, but jfc.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Jim, but I call bullshit on this story. Unless the two dealers you were at are multi-brand dealers and sell Arctic Cat as well as Polaris? What dealerships were they?

If only he were an actual dealer... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like the part where it says - "Polaris is working on a solution at no cost to consumers." Who's the genius at poo that thinks not being able to actually ride the fucking sled you bought is a no cost to the consumer situation? The new chassis is nice and I think the handling is really good overall but I'm not dropping the kind of cash poo is asking these days for shit they are still sticking their customers with. Welcome to the world of litigation, throw in consumers that never give their sled a good look over and this is what you end up with. I never pay attention to the stop rides, most are basic pay attention to your machine, but the one about the handle bar ends I found ridiculous.

That's exactly what it is ... it's manufacturers being forced to cover their ass because of stupid, greedy cunts (mostly lawyers). I will say though, the fire hazard issues with the Polaris SxS stuff was pretty legit a few years ago. But all of the legal shit that came from that snowballed into what is happening on the snow side and has hit the other brands as well. When a supposed issue happens, and it effects less than 20 sleds out of 200K or more? That's called bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polaris, arctic cat, Yamaha, skidoo, get paid when a sled is unloaded on to a dealers property. They really don’t give a shit what happens to it unless the dealer gets pissed, drops the franchise and by back laws makes them return it.

Not quite apples to apples. Cat has very limited floor models. Shit! My dealer is sold out of everything but a couple of used sleds. Key in the KROMMER to call me a fiber. He is such a tool in my rants. Cant wait to get off of hardcore and in to brand where bashing is not allowed. Get to the important shit. Not arguing about who has the most HP. That shot means zero to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well apparently the dealers don't think is a bad idea to have inventory on hand to sell. I really like seeing inventory at the dealers when I'm shopping for a new sled. I stop by, look at what they have, if I like it, I buy it. Its really a simple process, but I know you wouldn't understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
