BRP problems
I purchased my Outlander Max XT 650 in 2007 and now in 2010 I'm having MAJOR problems with it! There is no warranty and only 450 miles on it mostly just plowing snow and light trail riding. The rear suspension is a little on the week side. Bent the suspension and the wheeler was never really jumped (it happens). The major problems came in play about 6 months ago. I took it in cause it seemed to have a small oil leak (turned out to be a small seal) but when the serviceman was looking at it he found my clutches are destroying themselves! 
Still works but it's a matter of time before they go to hell. BRP won't stand behind it! Now it started over heating in 5mins from starting it. Took it in and the dealership said they have been having this problem a lot. Turns out BRP didn't tighten the head bolts tight enough and is causing the coolant to "superheat" this in turn causes the coolant pipes in the radiator to expand and crush the fins in the radiator. No airflow means more overheating problems! BRP won't stand behind it. All in all it is looking around $3500 in repairs that BRP won't stand behind after labor. The wheeler is awesome when it works but BRP is what I'm not impressed with! They are going to lose a lot of customer base if they don't start standing behind their products! They now lost me and I have been riding ski-doo snowmobiles for over 20 years! Anybody else having similar problems??
