If a 900T Backcountry is released I don’t think I could resist trading in my 900NA 25km early this morning packing some dog walking trails. 2085km to date and plan on doing some long days Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

The track is studded and has less than 750 Km. I MUCH prefer the Ice Attak and its proven longevity. I figure the current track has some resale value at this point, but that will decrease rapidly if I ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sled is good. Comfortable and power is great. I did have a few issues with it and dropped it off at the dealer. Steering froze up and had two times that the sled was dead when I went to start it. Other than that I like the sled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it possibly had been stored on the ground & the track had deteriorated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR SLEDHEAD Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 Unfortunately, engine was just out for leaking crank seal (oil showing) under warranty, this was first ride since repair. Late enough start to the season, not what I was hoping for on the first ride, missing a trip that was to have started tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the 2016 Polaris is the culprit.....I thought that last generation of POO 800's were pretty solid. How quick will the second fix take.....or perhaps considering something else now?

Did some research on the '16 Polaris 800's and found that they are very reliable as long as you turn up the oil pump 3 turns and replace the oil cap with an old school non check valve type. 3000 miles so far and all is good...

Little extra oil never hurts! Damn Cats sure does like the oil! I assume the cap replacement is to prevent a possible pressure lock in the system?

Since issue went from oil leak to locked up couple miles after repair, suspect either they missed something when it was out for inspection or there was an assembly mishap. They've promised to have engine out and apart today. Shitty part, repair done under warranty late summer, warranty ran out in early Dec but first ride was last week so yes on pins n needles as to how this plays out. Because seal leaking came out of the blue, opted to have done under warranty vs myself as I fully expected them to call when it was apart n say there was a crank bearing problem, report came back all is fine. Obviously it wasn't. Beating myself up I didn't stick to my ride for two seasons and trade idea when I purchased this one. Up till now, been favorite sled and by a good margin.
