My XP1k has been babied. 1st 100 KMs the front diff went , My Dealer, Route 1 Motor Sports here in Lower Sackville Nova Scotia, got me a new Diff, that has been strong since replacement. No marbles now. About 2 weeks ago while riding at night my lights/power flashed on/off/on, felt like power steering also went. I did my due diligence and measured stator wires (OK) then measured VR output… Power off battery had 12.5, with the motor running, 11.8 and it would never rise above that.
I called Route 1 and they said to bring in the VR. I did, no testing, very little discussion as I was 6 weeks past warranty.
The Service manager also warned me that a new one will be north of $275.00.
I came home and used this forum to find a "better way"
I ordered Ricks VR for $150.00 not expecting anything from Polaris.
Wonders never cease….. The Service manager at Route 1 Called me and said Polaris will replace it.
This company (Route 1) are great guys, offering knowledgeable advice on service, also on where to go fast. I am happy and confident that they have my back for any future issues (fingers crossed)
Thats it. Not many happy stories these days, but this is one that made my day!
