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

My guess is he could get in some serious trouble with polaris corporate if he sold and delivered that sled any time soon.

Yah, it is probably not for sale. Poo would rip them a new one. Every dealer got a red 850. (It is very pretty, I wish my ketchup Doo was that color.) My dealer is not real excited about uncrating or PDI-ing it. What is the point? To sell a sled that is not for sale for 6 months, won't see for a year?

Looks like somebody needs to re-calibrate their scale or show what parts they took off before weighing it! No way a Mfg would show their sled weighs MORE on the sticker than it actually does. I ain't buying it :)

Pretty sure that sled is quoted at 450ish dry. Seems legit to me.

Which one? There's an 05 Mach Z and a renegade X 1000 (closest one in pic). Mach Z is a rocket. Stock everything, except clutching. 128 on radar, at stock trail height, last winter. 111 in 600' on grass. Love the 1000. They hold a special place in my heart.

dude's sled was set to ship yesterday, Polaris changed it to ship on the 26th. Why do you guys keep giving Polaris money? Legit question, not bashing. I am curious as to how a company can keep f-ing up and still have a following. I talked to a guy today that used to work at a MULTI line dealership (one of the biggest in the country), he said that the recalls on Polaris were many many times larger than all of the recalls on all of the other lines combined. Again, I am just curious, not trying to start a brand fight.

The dealers got an “ all stop “ on sales of the sleds produces between a said date due to some issue with the fuel pump. I am thankful there Quality Control found something wrong on the assembly line and are correcting the issue before the sleds hit the consumers hands.
How is that bad business?
Good on Polaris for finding the problem and correcting it prior to us getting the sleds in the mountains and having the issue.

With the ship date pushed back only few Days like that could be number of things out for there hands but with the shipping company's. They have to use independent or sub the whole thing out to one company. Maybe truck issues maybe want to fill a trailer for more sleds at one place or along way never know.
Maybe driver said I don't want to work today lol. Next thing is recalls mean there owning up to a issue they have big or small and there spending there time and money to fix it not just leaving you high and dry. No issues with recalls in my eyes rather be that way than buying a pile of junk and no help from there end. Crap the 900 recalls half were a joke they could have said screw em but they still tried to help on em. And yeah I owned 3 of the 900 and would buy em again in heartbeat
