thats not much information....if they are new, let the dealer look at them, you're problems don't sound typical....

explain further your problems, what was the 'major electrical' problem? What was the 'grinding' noise....all newer polaris's make a transmission noise, you won't hear it after awhile....but yours could be different, but they all make more of a 'clunking' sound when letting off of the gas at slower speeds...

doesn't sound normal and since you have two machines, doesn't sound right at all, take them to the dealer, they will help you out if they are good dealers
