02 sportsman 400 with 3200 miles. no major problems. the biggest problem was a snapped U-joint in the right front axle it was one of those things that will eventually happen, and just a couple of boots and a snapped bolt in the rear suspension linkage thats, what happens when you jump it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

its held up very well with all these "go-fast" parts I have on it, theres been no engine or drivetrain probs except for the U-joint, I did it in shop class at school so I got credit for it, it all worked out.

I only have 1 Polaris which is a 00 trailboss.
I have about 420 miles on it and use it for trail riding or mud riding and also plow with it during winter , it plowed up to 18 inches of snow with out a problem , I have 25 inch tires for it and put about 150 pounds on the back rack.
Now as for problems I have had....they were very mild and regular maintence.

Replaced belt , tie rod ends all around, back brakes seem to go fast , chain ware is also fast , replaced chain slider.
as you can see I really never had a problem with my polaris , just normal ware and tear.
I would recommend a polaris to anyone even though I am a Yamaha guy my self and have been in the ATV business a long time.

'01 Xplorer 400
Coming up on 1800 miles
Replaced both front hub caps and o-rings due to them both leaking. I will be changing the belt in the new couple of weeks. Auxiliary brake not working properly but as we all know that's pretty common. Otherwise it runs strong. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I don't know about miles but , I had 400 hours on my 500 predator before I did any engine work(made it faster and stronger) and it didn't need it. just a valve job.

About 1 hour...maybe 2 miles...

You can bet that will change this summer, though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

2002 Sportsman 400. 2300 miles, no major problems. But I have replaced about ten to twelve cv boots, which is a pain in the @ss. Also on my second belt, and I broke off the 4x4 wire to the front left tire today. So I've got a little soldering to do this week I guess. Not impressed with the motor powerwise, but I guess I should have realized this before I bought the machine. On the plus side, it is reliable, and has always fired up, even in the extreame cold.
