Default NEW V-FORCE AND NEW TO FORUMS

Hi all, I just purchased a new V FORCE on wednesday. I am new to the forums and was wondering what the new V FORCE owners were doing as far as break in period. So far I have only ridden up and down the driveway due to the poor weather. The machine seems awesome and I can't wait to try it more this weekend. I was strictly Polaris before, but wanted a sport quad that had the features and power that the V FORCE does. I was really swayed by the engine size, automatic trans., sealed shaft and braking system, as well as the higher ground clearance benefits from it......Also I like the larger size of it as well. The other sport quads seem to small to me....Thanks.

Just dont get to hard on it for the first tank of gas or so.Your manuel calls for a 10 hour breakin period.

I am with ShaneB .... Just ride it .

( Just be careful not to overheat it ..... I did dozens of drag race launches in that first tank of fuel ... with some "light load" riding back to the starting line. ( you will need to practice launching this Bear !! )


It will stand on its tail in a hurry. I let someone ride it for a bit ..... He promptly stood it on its tail....
ripped the tail light off .... bent the grab handle ... and cracked the fender plastic [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] ( $310 )
( I won't be so dumb as to do that again.)

This is an awsome quad ! I have every reason to believe you are going to love it. It has responded
very well to the changes I have made. Good Luck..... keep the shiny side up. !

Do not let your friends ride it! A friend of mine rode mine and caused $3000 worth of damage. Insurance paid for it, but i still have not seen my Vforce in over a month! Sucks!

Just ride it and keep riding it. Mine seems to run better every time I take it out.
