I’m not sure, I haven’t looked into any differences. According to dealer mine was not recalled, so I’m assuming they had started performing the countermeasure at the factory when it was built. Must just not be enough parts inventory to release repair to public yet??

what is new on that clutch you have in there?

My 23 wasn't recalled either. It is just certain clutches with specific components (part numbers) that got recalled.

I dont know, they still have 3 9rs and 3 boosts from last season that people won't buy at $19k-$21k. I'm betting there will be a lot of marked down holdovers next year, people are tightening their budgets compared to the last few years.

Then again, there seems to be an abundance of people willing to drop $100k on a new diesel pickup that they'll never use to tow or haul anything but groceries
Yes, there will be plenty of bargains next year at a normal price.
This year let the guys who are willing to drop $100k on a pickup buy it. I don't mind :)

It's funny, after saying that, I ended up buying the fully loaded 9r Khaos they had. About $1500 under msrp. Can't even pick the damn thing up yet though because of the clutch recall.

Haha, after my 2018 3500 Ram being in the body shop for 7 months waiting on an airbag module I went out and paid too much for a 2023 Megacab. I also have a 24 Boost on order so I hope that airbag module shows up so I can sell the 2018 to pay for it. Keep in mind we in Canada are likely paying less for these new trucks and sleds than guys in the USA, once the conversion is done. A lot of our used trucks go South via brokers.

New 2023 9R's are going for under $22k CDN so under $17k USD.

That is a fantastic machine. My wife rode my 2023 Khaos 165 and now she wants it. She found it so much easier than any of my previous Polaris sleds.
Agree, my wife rides a 9R 165 Khaos and loves it. Made her a much better rider almost overnight.

I’m hoping she enjoys it. She rode my ‘23 Boost Pro 165 last year and she loved that. She’s coming off a 2018 800 SKS 155, so should be a nice upgrade. The current trend seems to be towards shorter tracks, but I enjoy my 165 Pro.

Got her bar set-up on there and just waiting for the Sled Tred console pads (best mod to any sled in our option ha ha).

Still severely overpriced....

They're going to need to do something for the next model year to stay out of trouble.

I imagine the snow check sell thru rate will drop significantly from the last 2 seasons, driven by interest rates and slowdown overall. Holdovers are back and the sleds have nothing enticing over the holdovers. Perfect time to release the 9R Boost. With how much better the ETec turbo is, it will be needed to not lose market share.

Have any boosts or 9r's been delivered yet? My boost still just says "Scheduled".
