Never thought I would say this. Buy a Polaris. The ride is so nice it's sickening if you ask me. How they hold up depends alot on the user. The Polaris is so smooth across rough stuff it gets abused a lot more because the rider is not getting tossed around and feeling the terrain like other quads will do. I really think this is the main issue. They ride so smooth people tend to abuse them compared to what other quads can do in rough stuff. Most quads are taking a beating but this Polaris, I swear can go twice as fast and no problem. That wears out parts.
I have a story that got my first attention about Polaris machines, it was a Arizona hunting trip 3 years ago. Archery Elk hunt and there was an 15 mile stretch of road we did everyday. I call it the road from hell, I swear for me and 2 buddies this was the roughest road I'd ever been on. I was on my Brute my buds both had Honda Rincons brand new that year. Well I cussed this road everyday and here comes a couple Polaris machines that blew by us acting like the road/trail was nothing. We talked about that and still do around the camp fire how they were going so fast over the rocky road. Well these machines are awesome and get abused because the rider does not feel the terrain like other machines. Awesome machine and really don't think I would every buy anything else. I can cover twice the distance over same time others can, on a rough road.
Just my thoughts
