I will be putting real studs in my 22. I put an Ice Attack on the Vector, and was completely happy with it. I wanted the "pics" for ice, and I found that the Attack is more web like than the Ice RIpper so traction on the trail was fine. I think the Attack also seems to have more rubber support around the lugs. New sled is supposed to have the 1.5 Ice Ripper. If BRP delivers minus the ICe Ripper, then an Ice Attack will go on, or I will stud. It would be a bit tough to justify a new track to the boss on a $20K sled.

grover_yyz Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 23 hours ago, scottyr said: My dealer said that he is down for 100 900s to arrive in January. He said there is no way that he can get 100 sleds built in a month. Even if they showed up Jan 2, there will still be guys without sleds in Feb. Its going to be a complete sh-t show trying to get these delivered. There will also be collateral damage being done to the used sled owners needing service from a dealer. They won't have mechanics to work on these sleds if they are assembling new sled as parts come in. I sure hope I won't need any service on my 2015 sled. Knock on wood my sled 900ACE has been working flawlessly. Jerry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordered most of the things I planed to put on mine last spring and have received almost all of them. Just need the sled to get started installing them. I have the adjustable windshield already. Glad I didn't wait to order. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and they forgot about all the accessories when they called to book the appointment for pick up. They called back 2 days later and said they had all the parts in stock and they have them installed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volunteer2 Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Talked to the dealer on Friday. Sled is in the yard in the crate. It's still BRP property. Dealer can't do anything with it or give me a vin number. No dash in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Most of you riders don't need the left side of the speedometer gauge ( readings under 50 km ). In all seriousness, good look with this issue. Gauges are light - candidates for air freight delivery. ( I was once in import- export, regularly changed from ship to air delivery based upon weight and necessity - being chirped by fellow sledders makes this a ' necessity ' ). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livin' on the b103 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Spoke with my dealer today, sled had been in for a while-sans gauges. Gauge is in and sled will be ready late this or early next week. Adding skid plate, led headlite, e-link and swapping my high glove box and gps wiring from my old sled. Good thing I kept my medium windshield from last 850. Back ordered!! Looks like most parts/ accessories are coming in except windshields and 2 up seats. Might not be as bad for new sleds as was predicted, at least in Ski Doo land. Heard Polaris is giving some far out dates though.

Livin' Good stuff brother 🍻 Stretch picked up his 22 850 Renny complete from Harpers last week. My young lad was told his Mach will be in late Nov early Dec from Bennetts. Took a ride in the buggy up the trail to Hali yesterday. 90000 tons of fresh material graded all the way from HJ right into Hali, the swamp above the pond causeway is high, really high, level with the trail with run off going across the trail in one spot, doesn't look like a culvert will help.
