I have 2 1993 Polaris 350l's, one has about 2600 on it, and the other about 1700 miles on it. Both run really good, but addmittedly, I have had to do some work on them because the people that had them before me didn't take very ggod care of them, road them hard, and did not maintaine them

I know that it don't count, but on top of my 2 1993 350l's, I also have a 1982 Honda 200x 3 wheeler that I still ride at least weekly. I bet I have 15,000 on it, and have done nothing but maintain it, and ride it.

It's Tim Horton's fault it's about 20 miles one way to my nearest Timmy's it seems like the bike always finds time to go there . I can ride from my driveway & run the secondary roads legally which helps plus we have lots or trails in my area

We have an 87 Trail Boss 4x4. It still plows snow in the winter and hits the trails in the summer.

Remember seeing a few people with the old Cyclones. I'm pretty sure one of them was in really good shape and was still running too.

I just wonder how many miles these engines will last.
I've been told if you take care of them with freq. oil and filter changes they will last a long time.

The idea of this forum question is to see what longevity these engines have.

I got 7000 miles on my 2008 500 carb should hit 10,000 miles by the end of this season . Still on original front pads and except for a broken flywheel key the bikes been 100 per cent reliable never any issues , no codes the most reliable toy I've ever owned . I hope my new 1200 X is just as reliable
