Oh cool!! Guy that owns rental place in hurley said X package shocks can be adjusted to ride better than the gsx se air ride suspension. And yes I'm positive about spanner nuts lol!! I suppose ski doo saved a few $$ on each sled without the nice twist to adjust shocks. I have those on the skis.

Congrats on new sled!! Pics!!
Are you sure about that center shock? I have X package renagade, just turn it by hand no wrenches needed!
Also give it 200-300 miles for break in should soften up bit and you'll be fine on stutters.

17s release in 2-3 weeks pricing on non currents will only get better. I would have waited 17s too close. But that is me....have fun with new ride.:)

Right on WD. It's a buyers market. And could very well get better. I have not seen these type of deep in the pocket deals before. At least not before the high dollar sleds came along.

I assume that will be the case but I hope you're right. Polaris took a bit off the rebates on the Indy's at the beginning of Feb, but I would think they'll put them back on in March.

Do they normally put the best rebates on them in the Spring or the following Fall once they are left-overs?

Deals can really get crazy in Fall ...Sept - Dec on noncurrents ...2017s on floor & 18s coming got to move units so OEMs start kicking in rebates always after a poor snow year and can't get much worse than 2015-16 snow season. All this makes Spring deals good too on 17s.

What does nothing but a stretch mean?
Not sure if its,an old saying or something...
I've owned, test ridden and researched the other manufactures' sleds. The 2016 Blizzard has potential, that's why I rented one for a long test drive and bought one...
I'm crossing my fingers I got a good one. So far so good, but I have yet to get the best ever, industry leading ride out of the R-motion suspension. I realize my posts seem negative toward the R-motion. It's my own fault for believing the hype, brochures and magazine reviews by people that may or may not have even ridden a sled equipped wit R-motion.
I have about 8000 miles on the best ever industry leading technologically amazing R- motion suspension and can't get a decent ride out of it.

R-motion sucks up the bumps like no other suspension on the market. The faster you go the better it gets. I agree with others, if you dont like it why by another. but congrats on new ride, ive ridden 2 blizzards they are very smooth. do you ride really slow over bumps by chance?

that suspension is refined, if anything it will be a new design, r-motion 2. the 16s are about as refined
as they can about get. its either new chassis or engine for doo this year. dealer promised something big.

doo has rebates on 2016s until march 29th, way past spring order time. if they 17s are mainly BNG's no one will buy one with the rebates on 16s, so im thinking something special is coming.

I have a feeling they will be WOWing the offtrail segment, more power, lighter weight, new chassis
That would be smart for them try to get more of mountain market... doing well with trail market no trail riders walking away from doo now and like their line up something for everyone.
