Buddy of mine just got his and it has a bog. Anyone else experience this bog or is it just the fine deep snow covering air vents?

So after about a week with buddy and his 163 boost, I still have not ridden it, but some observations:
(also riding with a '22 matryx n/a 165, a '21 axys 163 and a few days with a bunch of doo's)

-performance is impressive. Clear advantage over n/a. It's a weapon.
-occasional bog off idle. The n/a does it too. Seems to be when the sled is buried, so may be a blocked exhaust thing.
-has the fluttery exhaust sound, but not as pronounced as the videos posted earlier.
-the gauge is really nice.
-the slash tunnel holds no snow and virtually zero icing. Less icing in the skid too.
-the plastics are flimsy. You can grab the hood and move it around; needs better attachment.
-already blown out the ski rubbers

Been watching all the Muskoka vids posted on the site. That screen is the boss! Skidoo should be hanging their heads in shame with what we have. Good job P company.

They need the engineer that designed the gauge to take over oil tank development and fire that guy. It looks pretty wonky
Are they falling off as fast as the 17 Doo coolant tanks did.
So far the Polaris is a lot better machine than the 17 Doo flop that cost its owners tons of $$$.
Have not heard of exploding bulkheads, and wayvout there clutching with belts making 100km.
First year sleds all have growing pains.
So far the Boost is outshines any first year stuff Doo puts out.
Relax and wait it out a bit without all the condemnation.
More fore Maxi and minions.
Seems Doo having its share of issues this year that you all could concentrate on.

Whoa whoa whoa Randy? Just pointing out how flimsy the tank is? The Muskoka guy even is in bewilderment it hasn't fallen off yet. The sled looks good but will need some tweaks just like all sleds do. Go have a beer and chill brutha. Lol.
