Well, two weekends ago I was out on PRP , well, it just stopped. Luckily, I was with a friend and we towed it back to the house.

Got the bad news today..
  • Melted piston
  • cracked head -
  • cracked cylinder -

Looking for used parts to repair, cost of new from Polaris outrageous. My guy thinks it was on its way when we bought it...I only put 9 miles on it.

the other machine is running fine, put 100 miles on it. Please, please dont break down. At least my big weekend is canceled with my boys , before we found this out.
