Turbo Doo Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) Yah baby. ... Cannot wait for the 2 '22 900 Turbo R's to show up... Edited May 8, 2021 by Turbo Doo 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 Those will be the last models off the line I think in '94 the '95 MY Mach Zs & MXZx 440s were the last to show up @ the dealers. I know I was getting worried when my 440 was going to arrive. Does BRP provide the dealers w/ a production schedule? I know when I ordered my '01 or '04, they had the schedule in their hands.

Turbo Doo Posted May 9, 2021 Author Share Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) @revrnd, as long as they both show up before the snow, it's all good. I do know that dealers know when they are shipped, I'm not sure if they need to know manufacturing dates.

It was shipped to the dealer in September/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vooodooo Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Think this year is a crap shoot. Supply chains of every kind are in turmoil. Anything with a microchip in it is also in question, production wise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo Doo Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 I am fairly confident sleds will be fine. With the early spring order push, I am more then confident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno. Wait and see. Zero intial delivery date was first week of April. Now it is second week of may and nothing. What a crap shoot it is lately. Hopefully brp can keep sleds rolling which isn’t case with the atv’s, but those are made in Mexico I believe. Dealer got 2 last time I checked out if his 26 on list.

But I am wishful that Ski-Doo is ahead of the curve regarding their supply chain......the writing has been on the wall for a bit now and if I am not mistaken, the pre-order numbers were capped already, which one would think they already had what was needed to fulfil those numbers.

Well that sucks.....that would be similar to not getting your sled until the end of Jan / early Feb. Will be some interesting times ahead of us, might be some excited people, more than usual that is.

scottyr Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 My 2 new Seadoos are pushed back to June delivery which makes me think that it will be July. I made it very clear to my dealer that I will not be taking them if I am not riding by the 2nd weekend of July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyr Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Rumour has it that BRP is coming to the realization that they do not have enough 900R motors to fulfill all Spring Orders. All demo 900Rs orders have been cancelled and there will be none available for stock in the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure am glad I ordered mine earlier, Feb 25ish I think.....hoping if there is shortages, I assume BRP processes orders based on first in is first out so to speak, where it makes sense given the various models that come off the assembly line.

The dealer will be able to sell them in July for probably more then you paid, so be careful what you ask for, unless you have no use for the seadoos after July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they don't have what's needed for even spring orders, that doesn't bode well for dealers regular orders. I'd be fine waiting for my new sled, just rock the mach until it arrives. Maybe don't sell you're current sled until the spring order arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tides have changed the consumer has little or no control about major purchases it seems, everything "is no inventory" and "back ordered" which is driving prices up. Glad I bought a compact tractor in March because the dealer is sold out and doesn't know if he can get much more and the price will $2-3K more. Ouch.

I won't raise a stink for my spring order sled either if it doesn't come in when stated...that was for January delivery. I've had certain, very high tech, hot tub parts on backorder for almost a year. No delivery dates ever given. Managed to beg the actual manufacturer for one of a very specific heater. The tech support rep ( we've dealt with this guy for decades) said there is none in Canada, two in the US. He got one shipped to me. Thankful for it. Lol, wife asked for maybe send us both?...hard nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont need to tie up $40K in 2 Seadoos and a trailer for a month and a half of riding. Its the same as getting your new sleds in Feb.

I heard about the hot tub shortage and that there has not been any inventory for the last 6 months, in fact one dealer claimed sales are up 500% over the same period a year ago.
