Hey guys. I’m picking up my new 2016 model soon and wonder if Polaris has changed out the cam chain tensioner to an improved one or should I expect the same start up rattle to exist in my new one as well? I know Weller Racer has built a stronger, more durable tensioner that looks exactly like the factory one that have great reviews on here for solving this issue. I just hate dropping so much money just to turn around and spend $150 on a tensioner that Polaris should be aware of and have it fixed by now.
I just wonder if you guys that have owned 2016 models for a few months have experienced this well known/documented issue with the cam chain tensioner?
