I'm glad to hear it. I know it sucked, but did they do you right as far as repairs go?

yes they did..everything electronically (sensors, computers etc...) was replaced as a whole new motor........and there was no questions asked....they just did it.....im just upset that i lost almost 2 months of riding my efi.....even tho they gave me a 4 wheeler to use while mine was down.....it was still the point.....that it took so long to get parts for it........and then to find out that....that there was a half inch of play in the crank.....


but it seems fine now....i got close to 900 miles....on it.....and like i said before over a 160 on just the motor...from the weekend...and it performed flawlessly.........

so far im pretty happy....and my dealer polaris realy did take care of me...so thats a plus

hey tofast...... what polaris told me was that they didnt press the crank in far enough from when they built the engine....sounded kinda odd to me because i didnt know they pressed in cranks....but hey i never tore one apart.......and after seeing my old motor in pieces i now understand some what how they did it.......

becuase they failed to press it in far enough.....the crank was moving back n forth inside the motor....causing the fly wheel to pushed over towards the outside of the engine.....and moving off the crank sensor...thats why it was running realy rough...cuz the sensor was cutting the engine in and out.......and from the fly wheel being pushed over..it ruined the stator and started gouging the side of the engine...it actually gouged a nice whole in the side about 1/8" to 1/4" inch ......i wish i would had my digital with me so i could snapped some pics...but i forgot it.......it was realy F'd up man......


yeah i was glad they gave me a loaner..it was realy decent of em.......and yeah i rode it pretty hard....i mean how hard can you ride and xpedition 325....ahahah.......ill tell ya...for being a 325 she sure jumped pretty well.....and went the through mud suprisingly well.....cuz i could put it in a hight gear and just lug through it rather then being in 1st and just spinning out....it was nice ahah but im so glad to be on something that has all the power i need...and rides like a car...ahahah
