Did anybody see Kramer say Polaris is whipping Arctic Cat on sales and stock?

Duh!!!
A/C?? Would they partner with Yam if they knew how to make a reliable 4-stroke?

I own a small amount of both stocks. Have made money on each in the past, although much more with PII.

Have to say I'd probably listen to Kramer from Seinfeld than Jim Cramer when it comes to stock picking...

Kramer is rough around the edges, but overall, he is good at what he does...convincing you to listen to him and abide by his ideas and philosophies. He is selling and he has a good pitch.

He brings up some fundamentally sound analysis in comparing these two companies. He points his finger directly at managements and gives credit or criticism as it applies.

Lots of good stuff here but Cramer whiffed on Polaris buying KLIM which skewed the garments number. That is a big oversight for someone of Cramer's status & I respect Cramer a lot.

Is Polaris in the sack with 509? seen the goggles with both names on them. Also seen a major league 509 Semi and trailer at Novi show. They are well funded by someone?

I think that guy is doing just fine on his own.
he started 509 in his basement just doing video I am sure he has investors but I dont think any big boys pushing his business nor is he interested in having that kind of intrusion.
I dont know that for a fact but have read a few story's about him and 509 .
and fusion do u know of any A/C turbos that have let loose of just assuming they dont last?
I know of many personally with heavy heavy mods and still going strong not missing a stroke.
and a few stockers with over 10k on them. I have never seen a post with hundreds of hits talking about cats junk 1100

Well said ezra. I agree with u 100%. I've never heard anything but good things about cats 1100 turbos. I ride with two guys in my group that have turbos, and there awesome. They have never blown any belts, and I've heard of original belts going 5000+.

Just sold my 2011 non turbo cat 1100 4stroke. Great engine, 7200 miles, always started, ran great, super easy oil changes, talked to an engineer that helped design engine, both oil drain plugs same size and both designed to drain into same oil pan. ( dry sump system with oil tank drain and crankcase drain ) Only 4 stroke u open front cowl and u can see and access oil filter. Built in drain track for oil filter--- into same oil pan and no dripping in belly pan, or suspension. Very different from my Yamaha Phazer $180 oil changes requiring extensive dissasembly to get to oil filter. Drawback on the cat was million $$ valve adjustment at 5000 miles. I'd like to try Polaris again but I think polaris has had their sleds on the back burner due to them concentrating on more profitable lines, which is why polaris as a company is doing well. Not brand loyal at all, I want a good ride and reliability.

....He was stating facts,numbers and performance records from both company's not just "picking" stock. And well said anonomoose.

Cramer is soooo pasee', and so past being relevant. I completely started dismissing his opinions at least 10 yrs ago.
Got soaked enough on his stupid ideas.
That guy is all show and nothing to back it up. Totally about entertainment, and nothing else.
So I suppose that doesn't say very much about his opinion on A/C vs. Polaris, even though I happen to agree that A/C is going nowhere.

Listen Ez, I respect your opinion and all, but the one A/C I had, top of the line, most expensive model at the time, was about the worst piece of engineering imaginable and hard to believe anybody of intelligence designed it. Total lack of cred for their engineering dept. after what I experienced with their crap quality AND dealers.

.....................Granted like any show it's entertainment but as i said before he reported facts and earning basically described Polaris doing much better than Cat, which they are. How is that "all show" and "nothing to back it up" "Dismissing his opinions at least 10 years ago?" (he was unheard of and had no show then) Unreal, you make an irrelevant reply and then somebody agrees with ya...? Ah computerland.....whatever.

Cramer an unknown hardly maybe to you but was always well known to Wall Street. Now he depends on his staff for his show & they did blow Poo buying Klim to me very embarssing for him for people that know more about poo than him or his staff.lol The point Cramer was making was management execution to guidence ....I get that. If you think AC is doing badly you have the wrong takeaway. .........just saying.
