Break In Oil Change
 
I'm still fairly new to ATV ownership so I have a question. I have an 09 Polaris Sportsman 800 and was wondering about the time frame of an oil change after the break in period or to be more precise when the actual break in period is "over." I have two different Polaris dealerships where I live and have gotten two different answers on when to change out the break in oil. One told me after the first 10 hours and the other told me between 20 and 30 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, are there any particular questions that I should ask when it is being serviced or things I need to look for other than the obvious?

welcome to the forum and the 800 club. the boos says 20 hrs is the first break in service but others have done it at differnt times. any where between 10 to 20 hrs is fine and every 50 hrs there after is recommended. if you have your manual take a look and it tells you all the info on the correct service and things to do. enjoy your ride.
