I noticed some are getting gray seats now instead of green like it is suppose to be, maybe they ran out of that color on the assembly line?
Any pictures of this?

There was already tons of people pissed off they didn't get boosts. Guys like you would be crying how they didn't make enough if they only did 500 of them and sold them to guys who buy a new sled every year. The situation was going to be a lose lose with what's going on. Kudos for you filling all your orders. Polaris situation pales in comparison to what I'm dealing with, with Caterpillar and Ford. Way bigger and way more profitable companies that sell a product that actually makes people money. Keep whining. I'll get you some cheese ?Chadly
I do own a business, and it's in the snowmobile industry. As of 2 weeks ago I filled all of my orders to date with nothing currently on backorder. Some of my Arctic cat turbo kits were delayed buy a couple weeks but all of them had arrived and I shipped them to my customers by mid November which was the date I told my customers they should have them by. I do know the challenges of the current supply chain. and in my business I learned from mistakes I made last season by over promising and under delivering based on my suppliers forecasts. This year I've told some customers that I don't think I can get what they want, when they want it, and that they should look elsewhere for those products. This has worked well for me so far this year and I haven't had to deal with upset customers. I might not make as much on the bottom line because I decided not to bring in some of the stuff I normally do because of delivery issues last season. For me it's not always about how much you can make in the end, it's more about not over promising in these times and maintaining customer service as high as I can. I just think Polaris got a little to greedy when they took on the huge number of snowchecks that they did, knowing they had issues delivering last year and there would be more supplier issues again, just like last season. I guess the big question is did they over sell what they knew they could produce to meet reasonable timelines, or did some of their suppliers stretch the truth on what they could supply to them that's making Polaris look bad. Only Polaris knows the answer to that question. I can't compare my business to Polaris since I'm the size of fly-**** on the wall compared to Polaris when it comes to size and products. I don't have to make the big decisions on the assembly line. Believe me I don't for a minute think the line should be shut down waiting for parts for specific sleds, when others can be built. That would just put them in a bigger bind.
I've snow checked a new sled every year since 2011 with the exception of last year because I hardly got any miles on my 2020 so I kept it for another year. Just found out tonight that one of my best riding buddies was just diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer so me not getting my sled doesn't even matter to me right now. Such a small problem in the grand scheme of things.There was already tons of people pissed off they didn't get boosts.

ahh so you do work for Polaris trolling dept! j/k but lighten up Francis..If you paid $22,000 you are an idiot. It only cost $500 to order it and looks like you can get that back come Monday. So yes I am going to call you a whiner because you are whining. That is a fact. Not an opinion.
I didn't know you owned a sled. I thought you just rode your wife's when she let you.Looks like they suck. First, no adjustable hand warmers that was in brochure and now they get stuck. That wasn't in brochure. Anyone want mine.
That’s not me.So whats your thoughts on the production boost ?
Probably going to have to since hers is the only one here. She probably won't let me since i gave her boost to my buddy. Still a little bitter about that. Guess I'll have to ride one of the Yamaha 400s.I didn't know you owned a sled. I thought you just rode your wife's when she let you.
Looks like it runs stellar. Just sounds like a NA. Probably just not pulling much boost at that elevation.
How can you tell it’s a khaos?Video is of a Khaos and I haven’t seen any Boosted Khaos sleds delivered. The picture was of a Boosted Pro.
