I have got 600 mi. on mine and havn't had any problems except for a bent tierod when I rolled it down a hill. THE TIERODS ARE WEAK AND SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH AFTERMARKET ONES. or put some tubing over them. look at my pics.

I must agree, this is the best quad I have owned. If you are over 6' tall, this quad also has a great amount of room. I have had no service problems what so ever, and love every minute on the V Force.

Very happy with mine, over a year of abuse and no problems except several bent tie rods (operator error) They only cost about $7.00 so I keep spares. I also had a high speed roll over and only bent the bars and broke some plastic. It started right up. No chain to clean, adjust, replace, etc. Best Quad/most fun I have ever had!!!!!!! Add a pipe, air box mods, jetting, and a clutch kit and it is very impressive.

I have P 700 with 1450 km. on it with about 55 hours of riding time. I would not trade it for anything that I have meant on the trails so far, I will hold off total judgement until I meet the new K Brute Force. The only problem that I have had was front brakes siezed up due to a faulty master cylinder. The dealer looked right after me. I rolled mine down a 10 foot embankment last Friday and the only damage was a mirror broken off the fairing, I think I kicked it when I jumped off, it started first crack. Only the ribbing from my buddies will last for awhile. Love the bike and what it will do.
