Good show, nice to see someone getting the maximum benefit from their machine, keep on racking those miles maybe Guinness has a record to be broken there? :veryhappy:

 

Wow, that's great ! I can't wait to get a new X2.

 

I guess you have chosen the right oil!!!!!!!!!
Thats about as good as an oil test can get. Have you always run rotela.

Pretty cool! That's a lot of miles/hrs on a seat! I can only wish.... Congrats!

 

That's awesome Ronnie. I am at 3,000 miles 200+ hours, hope for many more years too.

 

That's impressive. Not many atv's with that kind of mileage on them.

 

All the value line models I have owned have been very reliable. Never had any problems with any of them. When I bought the XP boy was that an eye opening experience.:saevilw:

i own a 2007 X2 500 with 850 hr so let's keep doing what we are doing:cowboy:

 

How many miles?

Ronnie

 

Got the X2 out today for a ride around the hood. It rolled over to 800hrs and 11230 miles. It has been my most reliable ATV I have ever owned and hands down my favorite. Never been in the shop for anything since I bought it in 06. I have done all the maintenance myself since day 1.It starts right up and doesn't use any oil and I changed it every 50hrs.

THAT"S AWESOME RONNIE!!!! :fing02:

I can't wait to see how many miles you hit before it gives up the ghost? Have you ever replaced any suspension bushings? And how many belts in the 11230 miles?

Have you always run rotela.

Pro.... Did you read the original post at all? :slap: :chairfall:

 

I am on my 2nd belt and I put in new bushings around the 9000 mile mark if I remember right. I use high and low like the book says and the original belt still looked very good. I still wonder why the value line model bushings last so long and the XP bushings do not.

Ronnie

 

The newer models (even your beloved value line) use way cheap materials than the older machines.

 

You might be right about the different materials they use now but one thing you are 100% right about is I do love the value line. They have been much better and easier on the wallet than my XP.

Ronnie

 

its great you've had so many years of good service.

the only other ATV I've seen with more miles was my neighbor who passed away a few years ago. He had a old honda foreman with over 32,000 miles on it. He was a Dairy farmer and a WWII vet and drove the thing every day to check cows. I believe he was well over 90 years, that foreman was also full time 4X4.

 

Maintenance is what you have to do if you want the "plush XP ride"

Which imo is total crap. My 12' 400 rode just as good as the XP does. In fact probably softer, more like a couch.

 

Glad to hear.
I have an 07 Sportsman 800X2 with over 6,000 miles.
Never left me stranded.
I've always used Polaris Fluids & Filters.
