Bump, less than 30 days.

 

Stopped at the dealer yesterday and inquired about any changes to the Sportsman line. The guy I bought my last 6 ATVs from (a good guy) told me that aside from the Dealer show he's going to next month, he doesn't know of any major changes. He didn't hint at anything either. If Polaris has a new twin they're about to release, its obviously top secret. Sort of like Arctic Cat was, I believe the Thundercat 1000 caught everyone by surprise......I could be wrong. Just a thought, being that the release of the 2010 model line is only a little over one year away, I can see Manufacturers holding out a little longer before introducing major changes or new models until then, for no other reason than it is the start of a new decade.

 

The way it sounds the media embargo is lifted July 24th, so I would assume that's the day the website gets updated also. So that's 26 more days!!

 

Can Am has their 2009 line-up already out. A friend of mine with an Outlander 650 wants me to buy an Outlander 800R with him next year. The new front end of the R model looks very nice.

 

Well, we should know what the 09 Polaris models are prior to the 800R making it to the showrooms. You should still have some time to decide.

 

RE: Polaris - Can anyone give me dates and any other details about the Vegas Show?

 

it is the 4th week of july 24th thru 27 i belive. also all polaris deals and rebates and incintives all end on july 23rd...... hmmmmm

 

On highlifter.com, someone said Polaris will introduce the 09' line up to dealers the evening of the 23rd. I would think the Polaris website will be updated on the 24th then.

 

There will be an all new from the ground up sportsman of some kind. Along with a electric powered atv of somekind also. New RZR and ranger. Also powersteering will be coming into play on some if not all of their machines.

 

That sounds a little far fetched IMO that Polaris would have the abilty to all the sudden be able to design a new sportsman, RZR, and Ranger all for 2009. I really don't think they have the resorces to disign that many new machines all at the same time. I am betting we see some minor revisions or updates to the Rnager/ RZRs and a new performance oriented sport utilty 4x4 possibl sporting a new liberty 850 enigine that will but them in the power war head to head with Can-am and Cat. Then the majority of the rest of the line will be carry over models, with maybe some very minor if any updates at all.
