hey folks,after owning several sportsman 500 I traded for a new RSE sportsman 500 at 96 mies and 11.4 hours I suffered a major left front a-arm failure which resulted in the total destruction of my new machine. it's been 3 months now and polaris still has not replaced the bike,my dealer has tried very hard to get some info. for me but nothing yet. polaris says it is still in thier lab. has anyone else suffered this problem with either the a-arm or getting polaris to own up to a manufacture defect?

 

My ball joint went bad after less than 20 hours. If yours went bad and you didn't know it they could have failed totally.

Glenn.
