My 07 800 was wore halfway into the case in 1400miles. It never towed or plowed. I told dealer and he told me I was nuts  , that does not happen.
1 month later traded bike to same dealer on an 08 800. Now this 800 is wearing into the drain plug right from 120miles. It now has 400 on it and has had 4 tranny oil changes.
The 07 tranny oil was like metal flake paint and you could not rinse out the filings and the oil was changed 6 times with Polaris oil in 1400 miles. It also became hard to shift except after a fresh oil change.
The 08 gets the tranny changed the same time as the engine no matter what, and more if I am looking for water. Never had any in either bike.
Anybody that owns a Polaris should keep an eye on the condition of tranny oil.
Based on my exp my next machine will not be a Polaris.
