Polaris
I have 4 Polaris sleds: I have held off buying anything newer than my 02 & 03 800RMK (praying the cranks hold together), due to the IQ trash from 05 till now. Are the 08 dragon's better? Yes, but why are your customers still spending their money to fix numerous asinine (mistakes) / problems from the factory.
For what a Dragon cost. No one should have to be spending their hard earned money on Mods that fix problems that should have never left the factory. These mods are not personal choice they are required to function properly (Polaris's responsibility). Not to mention the problems that have no answer.
Our hard earned money should be spent on mods that take our sleds to the next (personal) level: Pipe(s) airbox, clutch weights, V force reeds. A fairly standard package. This is called "personal choice".
I will be looking at Ski doo's when my next purchase comes.....I have not ruled out the dragon. I know Ski doo have their issues also, but their track record has been better than Polaris.
This post is not directed toward any Polaris rider. I am one and have been for years, why do you think I'm pissed. I just think Polaris could stand a taste of their own medicine. If Polaris riders were to buy a different brand on their next purchase - Polaris would feel it in the pocket book......Just like their riders have over the last few years (many of their previous customers are on Rev's now and I have friends going to the rev on their next purchase without question). Quality control would become a priority. Another way to go would be to flood their phones with complaints daily.
As your customer know this....I look for technology and quality in a sled - not your name on the nose. When I bought my Polaris sleds I felt you were delivering technology and quality. I do not think that today and it's your fault!
Maybe these forums are miss leading. Maybe of all the riders out there, only the very few on this forum have a problem and it is a small %. I doubt it.
By the way, my 02 is up on the stand with the engine tore apart with 1200 miles on it......with one of those problems that has nothing to do with the rider. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
The end
