Ok. Polaris is an American Company? Am I wrong? My identification label on my 900 says Made in Mexico. I cylinder head says Made in Mexico . I am rebuilding my main gearcase and there is only one bearing that is made in Japan and the rest are made in CHINA. I am also replacing gears and shafts which are all made in CHINA but in spelling out CHINA on the packaging they only print out Country of Origin : CN . Does that stand for Cincinnati ,United States. The only Country I know that would come close to the CN spelling is China. Why don’t they abbreviate Mexico as MX. Doesn’t country of origin mean that it was made there? The big question, why does Polaris tell you to use AGL FULLY SYNTHETIC OIL in the gearcase and transmission when Polaris uses a low quality parts supplier? Do they expect the fully synthetic lubricant to make the parts last longer. You know when your main gearcase blows and they can tell that you used another type of fluid they will not warranty the damage. How much do you think the Chinese actually care about their quality control. Do you see cars MADE in China in the United States. They were going to sell them but the quality sucked. I deal with companies that have their plastic parts made in China because it is less expensive to make there, so when there is a problem with fit they blame it on the parts that I would make . It is less expensive for the company to accuse the company in US than to send it back to China. They make the parts in China and Mexico . Assemble them in Mexico because it would probably be to expensive to make them completely in China and ship them to the US. They probably assemble a couple in the US to say that they are made in the good old U.S.A. I wonder if any of the YAMAHA parts are made in China. If I buy one in the future I will find out. I will get into the American companies that ship the China made parts to you UPS without any packaging later. I am going to wait and see how my issue pans out . Sorry for the long rant.
