850 owners without issues

As there are many 850 owners complaining about problems with their rides, I can bet there are many more without issues or just with some minor issues.
I started this thread just to see how many 850 owners would stop by to say they're happy with their ride and have no problems with it.

I say my ride, 2011 Sportsman 850 Touring ESP is with zero issues, 2000km on the clock and counting.

Love my 850XP X2, no issues at all, not even the infamous oil in the airbox issue....

No oil in my airbox as well, and I ride it high speed long runs all the time.

Love my 850XP. The only issue I ever had was flipping upside down on my fat ass. It was like getting done by the fattest chick ever! And just as embarrassing 'cause all my friends saw it happen.



But I am getting tired of all the Polaris bashing. It's almost like people want everyone else to hate Polaris because they have had a little adversity. I think that attitude is best spent on YouTube. I have heard enough bad things here about problems.



Get over it people! Get out and ride! All machines have problems!

Peace!

And thanks for starting this thread!
