I wonder if the new sportsman XP's are going to be hard to come by the first year like the RZR's was?? Every one that comes in will be gone so fast I won't get a chance to look at our ride.

They are building them, there is quite the stock of them sitting at polaris, but there is some reason that they won't be getting shipped out untill later in the year, not sure if its ok if I say why, but is just they way they are doing it.

Wait, here is a good way to put it. They need to build up enought units so that all the dealers in the US have their new XP's at about the same time, not send a bunch out to the midwest, then the eastern and western part of the country have to wait 3 months for their XP's when Polaris can produce them, that wouldn't be fair.

Other years it hasn't mattered, but on a new line of ATV, its important to do it like this.

I was at the Mn renaissance festival and they had a polaris vilage out back where you could ride atv's. they had a great little track too with rocks and hills and what not.
Anyways i rode the new XP 850 Sportsman WOW that quad is flat out the most amazing ATV i've ridden power was unreal for something that heavy.

They had 6 850's there and some 550's too so i would think they have a good stock pile built by now.
