That all depends on what alloy they chose to extrude the running boards out of, and the post extruding heat treat and aging process they went with. Hopefully they were smart enough to chose an alloy and heat treat that will bend before breaking and cheese grating your calf when it goes through.

I meant spleen, (damn public schools)
How much for the nut, maybe if I had 3 I would have enough "nuts" to ask my wife if I can trade the 12 in on a 13!
I'd pm you a picture, but I think Brett Favre got in trouble for that

Of course it's all speculation at this point, and crazier things have happened...
But I would hope to think of all the things that would be possibly over-engineered from at least a safety standpoint would be the running boards. If they did fail you would have to assume it they would bend and deform before actually breaking. Probably why we haven't seen a more aggressive snow evac pattern to date.
Maybe they should just send one out to me to test out. With my sub-par riding skills and our hopeless lack of snow I am sure I could find a way to put them to the test.
I'm sure the aftermarket companies will be shaking there head because they're going to have to spend alot of $$ on RD to bring some new improvements to the table! This is all good. Pushing the sports to the next level... AGAIN
a-arms should transfer to the '12s if they're the same length, wonder if they'll be for the Pro only or for all RMKs (assaults and std)
Boards are awesome for a stock sled but $500 can get you a similar setup on your '12
seat: take it or leave it. once again, cool to have stock but dont really see it as a necessary thing to push me off my 12 to a 13...
keep it comin Polaris!
They will still have plenty of running boards to sell for the older sled and the ski-doo's, yamahas, and Cats.LOL.
This is a sled that we (everyone I ride with) said we wanted out of the box...Mod from the factory....No turbo: boo-hoo, oh it's not ported with a pipe or programmer- give me a break!
Simple "improvements" for my specific riding...type and elevation….Hell Yeah!
to quote someone "Gas and Oil is all I need".
2013 Polaris Pro RMK....BOOM! That’s how I roll....

With the improved Polaris being introduced and ski-doo we anticipate will follow shortly after with a new platform kinda makes arctic cat the short fat kid with long arms and greenie hanging out his nose with A.D.D at the back of the bus. "Hi.
. i have a new belt, my friend has a Polaris. i saw a rock. do you like snow"?
