Default 600 trouble help

Bought a '03 600 last week and attempted to ride today but, over 15mph she turned into a slug and had no power. Thanks in advance.

man that sucks !! i have had mine a week and have 120 miles on it and not one problem but i have read that the throttle cable might stretch during the first 20 hours and this throws the ETC out of wack and causes loss of power and backfiring.thats a simple cable adjustment fix but since yours is brand spanken new you should go right back to the dealer because it was something they or polaris did or did not do . you could try to troubleshoot it yourself but not even 1 mile !!!! i would be pissed.let us know when you find out.
