well i posted about a week ago that it was shifting loud and i found more metal in my oil than normal... it didnt blow that day i rode so i figured the noise was in my head...
went around the track 2 times today and went to drag my buddy... hit 3rd and it fell on its face making funny noises...

I have heard of Polaris covering the trannys out of warrenty. Hopefully your dealer can help you out on this one. Did you lose all your gears?

If you go with the raptor you'll just have to deal with leaking oil and coolant, instead of bad tranys.

id rather have a 450... my buddy has one and i just cant get comfy on it... it feels way to small and the stiff throttle kills my thumb... all stuff id get use to i supose... ive never rode a raptor to be honest... but i know they are obviously good quads.
