just wondering if anyone has broken a cv on the of the 800?

 

i guess im the only unlucky person to take one of these out. on my back one a hole was torn in the boot and in matter of a few miles it was clicking. the front one was when i was stuck in a good hole winching my self out. turned the wheel to the left gave it the power and boom destroyed it. hoe its covered under warr. ill find out sat.

 

Let us know if they warranty it.

 

update, i talked to my dealer today and he said thier going to warr. the front cv but i have to pay for the back w/ the ripped boot that took out my cv.( kinda figued that). he said if you have the wheels cranked all the way to one side when stuc and put the power to it chances are you might break something sfrom all the torque on it. get it back sat. just in time for the rain.

 

Im glad to hear they atleast warrantied the one.

 

A person does have to be careful with all that power. It sure sucks to learn the hard way. Charlie

 

well i brought the breat home this morning from my dry screwing from my ex dealer. they serviced it for 89.00 winch included the oil being changed and greased the 6 fittings. they charged me amost 400.00 for fixing the rear cv joint. i amoust died right their on the spot. was i pissed. they told me not to fix it when i called because it might be warr. i tolf them i would have fixed it myself. then i had ordered new wheel studs for the wifes 450 (thier 800 size) to fit my wheels i put on her 450 (which look great) and he told me to pay cash for them so i did. i walked out to get in my truck just a bitching to my wife and one of the guys came out and said i wasnt going to charge you for the studs thats y i said pay cash for them. anyways i told him i was in shock still and besides i didnt want to cheat them for anything and jumped in and left. lesson learned the expensive way as always.

 

You should post your ex dealers name to warn others.
There is actually 7 fittings. I hope they know that. Wouldnt surprise me if they didnt.
First , last and only time i had a dealer change my oil it cost me $50

 

That sucks man. My dealer has been as good as gold so far. That was one of the reasons that I bought Polaris both times, he is the nearest dealership to me and has a great reputation. He hasn't cheated me yet anyway. How much of that bill was parts for the rear cv repair?

 

lawdog, it was the inside rear toward the bike and it 208.00 for the insiide cv and 32.00 for the boot kit and 44.00 to but it on. oh yea 89.00 for the real hard service they did. so beware of breaking a boot. now im trying to figue out witch guards to buy.
