Just wondered if anyone had some experience with this engine. I bought a used 330 magnum with low hours and the engine runs liek a top. Just wondered if there were any issues with them. I read somewhere that they are quite reliable, just wanted to hear more. One thing i heard though was that the oil lines that go to the oil cooler can be a bit of a pain.

My co-worker has one ...Never really had any trouble with it..........He also has a Banshee and seems to be riding that everytime we ride together(1-2 times a year)...........He likes the "speed"........The 330 is his ice-fishing Quad!!!..........Caper.................

 

THe 330s are a bullet proof motor as long as you keep the oil change regularlly.

 

It depends on what you want to use it for. If you're trail riding with 450s or bigger you won't be able to keep up in hilly country. 330s had a problem with oil lines leaking/bursting so keep an eye on it. I wasn't impressed with the one we had. At idle the handlebars would shake like crazy and it was underpowered for our needs. But like I said, your satisfaction will depend on what you expect from it.

 

my 325 has been really good

It is a little guttless until you clutch it.First hill I tried on ours I knew it needed more rpms so a little spring change and now it rocks with anything in the trails.
