Curious to know if there will  be a shoot out this year for the 3 manufacturers. Always good for shits and giggles on here. I suspect a washer guzzling fool will interject with the standard there will be no snow due to climate change. Has never prevented this event from going on in the past

Still waiting on the video of you checking the air filter...

 

Speaking of air filters, the air filter on the Prowler Pro is pretty much a weekly service item.

I like 80% of that machine, but the 20% that I find to be a shortcoming.  

Dayum...

The one on the 600 is such a pita that even engineering admits to it being a screw up.

But at least when those start eating antifreeze you can just go over to Lowe’s to get new head studs

No Lowe's in St. Cloud, but this explains why the Menard's and Homeless Despot are always out of threaded rod in butter grade.

Picture smelting the change in your pocket into a 5” piece of all thread and then finding rattle can black oxide coating. Yours would probably be better quality hardware actually.

If you think your Alterra is good, you should try a Sportsman.

I have. The Sportsman is pure junk. Cannot shift gears without grinding the gears. Constant recalls as well. Never buy from a brand that builds in Mexico.

Grinding gears?  Are you completely retarded?

 

...rhetorical question of course you are.  Obvious everytime you post.

More lies. My 2022 850 has been flawless. WTF are you talking about grinding gears. No recalls. You been at the round table drinking washer fluid with your Alaskan buddy.

Motor is built in St.Cloud in Cats engine plant. ATV is built in TRF. As stated earlier, cut off the minus 50. 2 brain cells does not constitute a lie worth saving.

is that the same engine plant where they forgot to put crank bearing retaining pins in the bearing and case? 

rather than leaving them in the bottom of the case...

Every time you shift from high to low and to reverse, they grind. Sportsman's are a bigger pile than any other make. Takes an 850 to equal a 400 Cat.

That was Polaris. There wonderful 1st year 850. 

Shouldn't you be hauling beets and grabbing your Johnson as you pull into the piler?

All American Crystal stations are open.

Maybe you should shut the fuck up?

My buddies ranger 1000 had a safety recall where he wasn't supposed to use it because of fire hazard but they didn't have parts for many months!  What are people supposed to do if they rely on their sxs?  Just not plow their driveway for a whole winter yeah ok

Pretty easy to comply with that since MN didn’t get any snow last winter.

no... they used bubble gum on their crank bearings.  people at the engine plant you are talking about fucked up one for sure (I have receipts) and several more allegedly.  it wasn't a design issue, but a major quality control issue.  

oops?

I checked the warranty.  It stated that any windshield added that you can see into the future with will cause those pins to shake out.

I know, right?  Sounds weird but then again, Polaris' catch fire if you add any fuel so, it's the sled works we live in now.

What a great day for a nice ride. Took the 850 Sportsman for a good run. Not once did I hear this mysterious grinding sound the Site Moron yaks about. Saw plenty of Poo's, BRP's and Hondas. Saw one Cat and don't even know if it was the same POS the Site Moron rides. No doubt consumers have chosen what is a POS and what isn't with their wallets. One fucking Cat all day. LMFOA

Went on a sxs trip this summer. I was surprised with how popular the cf moto ones are getting now. Saw a lot more of them than I was expecting. Saw one or 2 older cats on the trip.

I've got a few buddies who are hardcore SxS people ... go on trips almost every weekend, and pretty "in the know" with all the brand stuff.  They all say the same thing about cf moto and that they're less expensive and offer the same/nice features but there's a reason they're a lot cheaper.  One of the guys was looking to unload his Expedition and potentially get into a z force ... the sales guy told him, "You don't need to worry about parts and service work.  We have trucks here with parts multiple times per week."    My buddy laughed and said, "So in other words, you guys do a lot of work on these things."  The sales guy tried to backtrack but he had already said enough.

People who buy Polaris products are kind of like Tesla fan boys. Never speak of the issues that they're junk has.
