Last year I bought a 2000 polaris trail blazer put a pipe clutch kit and a K&N ait filter on it. It was ok but just wasn't fast enough. I kept looking at the 400ex and telling my dad how much i liked it. Then X-Mas came and low and behold there sat a 400ex i thought i had died and gone to heaven. Soon after i got the 400 my trail blazer blew the engine and i thought o well sucks anyway. About a month ago i had to sell the 400 to get a car but dad said we would get the polaris fixed so i could have something to ride.. When we took it to the shop they said the engine was gone and it would cost 880.00 to fix it. Little high but what the heck. Later on i called to ask if the had got the parts yet and they said yes but the flywheel, clutch and all that other stuff in there was gone too and it would be 1800 now. when i heard that i said no way that's too mcuh. Anyway the point of this story is don't give up your honda for a P.O.S polaris!!!!

I agree, stay with Honda, otherwise, you'll miss all of those recall notices.

Sounds like if you really wanted speed, you should have gotten the Scrambler in the first place. So dont complain about the Trail Blazer being slow, it's not marketed as a speed machine. My P.O.S Polaris is running 100% fine. Don't get me wrong, Im not tryingto start something. I do think that 1800 is alot man! Whatever brand you're happy with is fine with me, just as long you have fun.

Honda has a recall and all of you POS polaris owners eat it up because you know that there won't be another Honda recall for years to come.Polaris continually produces garbage and you know it.

With all the Honda recalls, and all the problems the Raptor is having, it seems Polaris is the only reliable quad manufacturer out there. The truth is sometimes hard to swallow.

I used to have a moped when I was ten that was BELT DRIVEN.I now know where POLARIS gets their ideas from.Truth is is that Polaris will always be second in the ATV market.

Honda isnt the only manufacturer who has recalls. about 4 or 5 years ago you couldnt give a polaris away.

If it comes from daddy,mommy or Santa who cares what kind is under the tree . A 800 Dollar fix for a blown 2 Stroke? Sounds like the Dealer seen you coming through the door.
