Anyone hear when the snowchecked 850's might start hitting dealerships for pickup?

My 2016 snowchecked Axys 800 hit my dealership in early August, and as you all know that was the first year for that sled. I would think the 850's only being an improved Axys and not a brand new model like the Axys was would have similar landing dates. Thoughts?

That’s soooo late to start doing Mods. Want the sled sooner not later..

Mid Sept is the earliest iv picked a Snowcheck up, I would think these should be around that same time frame.

I'd be fine with November. Got my 144 Assault to ride until the good snow comes anyways.

It’s a bit vague so far, but best guess my delivery sched looks about 6 weeks behind the last few years. We have been getting SC sleds late aug through late sept...I think this year we’ll be +/- Nov 1st

My dealer said they are scheduled for late Nov.

Yeah lots of dealer snow! depends on the year. broke plenty of crap in mid December due to not enough snow

Kurt's Polaris in Missoula said the build dates are set and the delivery dates are Nov/Dec.

I'll be very pissed if there late November or December. I have been riding second week of November the last 4 years. Polaris has had plenty of time to get 850 here before November.

Screw that. I need a new sled and I am not going to miss a month of riding waiting just cause I wanted an RMK 850. If it's coming that late (assuming we have snow), I'll either sacrifice my deposit or just sell the preorder to someone else at cost who wants to wait. That's shady BS by Polaris. When have they ever delivered that late before? If they knew it was going to be that late it should've been disclosed.

Riding starts here in November but I will be away till the first week in December. If my sleds not at the dealership by that time my money's going elsewhere.

November / December WTF Polaris! My 2016 snowcheck which was a first year model (as in not just a new motor) showed up at my dealer on August 7, 2015. That sled was 99% different then the prior years PRO. Date and time on the photo below when I unwrapped it from the plastic in the crate.

Um 2016 was the second year for motor and chassis

Think 2015 800ho shorty........... ( a tunnel does not a new chassis make)

I picked up my 2016 snowcheck in July, doesn’t mean anything about 2019 sleds.

The new motor being snowcheck only should be an indication of poo’s difficulties getting enough 850 motors ready by fall.........

Man, I hope they are NOT that late again this season.
It makes it SO HARD to do good MODS on them when the snow is already falling!

Anyone hear when the 850's might start hitting dealerships?
