Question polaris fluids

Are there any advantages to using polaris antifreeze and polaris brake fluid over the local autoparts brand?These have not been changed yet in my 2007 sportsman,and i cant see paying the higher prices for polaris fluids unless its a better quality fluid.thanks

NOPE! There aren't any magical additives in Polaris branded antifreeze or brake fluid! There is a product called Engine Ice that a lot of our Ktm riders swore by,but your radiator capacity compared to the average motorcycle radiator would cost you a small fortune to fill. Almost all antifreeze now is now made for aluminum radiators and can be used,Zerex,Prestone,etc. Same thing on brake fluid,you can use a good brand at the auto store. OPT
