9R first ride, easy break in ride. Seized on the way out at 31 miles, no engine lights or warning.
Rode my wife’s 9R for three rides and ran well, super capable and a level up from the 850.
Curious to see what happened AND how long it will take on warranty.

Hopefully Polaris gets this mess straightened out. I know every brand an occasional problem or failure, but seems very excessive this year. 9R had all the splines strip out of the P-22 and leave you stranded at 76 miles. Bolt was intact and not broken.
