Pro RMK 850 NA's - has anyone been able to order anything other than black?

[volcano buster]

I bought my Khaos in the next state over. Complete round trip was 962 miles and exactly 16 hours on the dot. Packed my lunch and 1 fuel up.

This is what my dealer provided for the pre-configured 850 RMK 155 options...

Wait, are you saying that it's only a 1 year warranty? How the f*** does someone get a three year warranty then? What would it even apply to?

It only applied to that one specific sled because it wasn't technically a snow check model. It was supposed to be a regular in season model. Hard to explain but you basically just putting your name on one of there showroom models.

You are going to make a 16 hour round trip for a blue/black sled instead of a black/black sled? You're going to burn up a good chunk of the 9R price difference in fuel/hotel/food/your time.... no?

How about I never said I was buying it?! I said I FOUND it. I will be BUYING it from my local dealer. How he gets it is up to him but he's evidently already worked it out.

I think I get exactly what you are saying, which is why I'd be shocked if it's true. My example sounds the same. The dealer gets three sleds of each supposedly. So I tried to order a customized Khaos Slash 165 NA. I get the call, they're sorry, but I can only get an all black or all orange, not customized at all. And yes, as they said, they are getting those sleds anyways. So, I snow check one because it's time for a new sled, and I want to make sure I get one with 3 year warranty. Based on what you are saying, it sounds like they I may be in store for only a 1 year warranty. I'll try to confirm on my end, but if that's the case it would render the snowcheck completely pointless, other than paying them to reserve one which might be still available later and might have better incentives depending on what happens with the market here.

I just called my dealer after reading this thread. Turns out it is 100% true that all 850's come in pre-configured dealer allocation models only. The sales guy did not even know this. I had Snowchecked an 850 Pro RMK Slash 165, 7S, ES for my wife in blue with blue tunnel and rails. Luckily one of their pre-configured allocations was identical to her build other than that the tunnel was black. Otherwise they did have one 9R allocation left lol.... I honestly feel a bit pissed off that Polaris let us go through that build process.

My dealer assured me the pre-configured 650 & 850 sleds come with the 3yr warranty. Better be correct!

I too was assured that, as well as the Nov 30th ship guarantee. Dealer finalized the order but I have not yet received the email from Polaris.

[macphee8fiddy]

[turboless terry]

Bet your 3 year gets shot down also

Misread post. Thought you were claiming you were smoozing into 3 year on boost

 

[Daner1978]

So you read about half a dozen P22 failures on here but you completely glazed over the 4 page thread of us all saying the twin pipes suck a$$? You my friend win the internet. Just admit you can't afford the $700 Boost/9R payment ???

You are one arrogant ass ****!!!!?

 

[chevy_man]

You are one arrogant ass ****!!!!?

He's not wrong though.

The twins seem to be super sensitive to heat in the pipes. They run like **** if they're not hot enough.

I just tried to showcheck an 850 na with the 155" 3.25 track and the build sheet only allows for the 2.75 track. Are na sleds only coming with the 2.75 track?

 

[blindman]

Yeah but you also got to ride with Big Gay Wade in McCall. You should have asked him how awesome his SLP twins were? I don't believe anyone who says they run good. EVERY set I have seen in person sucked.

is that big mouth Wade from snowest old days with ford and gravy? if so lmao

 

[Mafesto]

That's the response he's fishing for. It's all keyboard humor!

Yeah the 3.25 is only available on the 9r and Boost.
