I hope this post if it saves just one person grief, it's worth it. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Founded in 1988 in China, withstood the test of time and earned the trust of many customers worldwide, our company now ranks among the top three companies-manufacturers of ATV and first as a producer of UTV in China. Our production bases are located in the / u area of over 600,000 square meters in China and over 100,000 square meters in the United States, include assets of several billion. dollars and over 3,000 employees. HISUN ™ MOTORS Group has all the necessary national and international certificates, such as CCC, COP, E3, EPA, E-mark, ISO. Attitude to every detail and strict systems of quality control in accordance with QMS standards give us the right to be proud that we have fulfilled our commitment as a manufacturer of innovative and all-terrain vehicles that meet or exceed international standards. My concern is as I previously stated, for people who keep their vehicles for many years, will spare parts be available after years? What dealers tell me is NO. I do know if you are lucky enough to find a part you need you will pay dearly for it. Seen as an expendable product it's highly unlikely they will make and stock spare parts much past past warranty periods. One thing I am sure of "you get what you pay for" and barely that. CAVEAT EMPTOR.

if it has an oil filter replace it before running it and replace it after 20 hours or so of run time.

Ahhh! I bought a New Polaris but now it's getting older and isn't new anymore. I love how companies sow seeds of discontent trying to make us think we need the new one.

I bought side mirrors on Amazon that work great, can take multiple tree hits and not break. Some items I like to make such as a rear window from Lexan, easy to cut and shape, costs more than plexiglass but cannot break. Roof? Any metal seller has plate aluminum, that and a couple of angle aluminum and you can make a roof for $100 that is much stronger than dealers plastic or metal roof. I can sit or stand on my roof for a great view.

Go to any dealership that sells made in America utvs and ask their parts guy about availability of parts from "assembled in America" utvs. They have had plenty of people trying to match up parts that they cannot match. I had to remove the hardness on a strut to machine down the diameter and re thread it. Then heat it and quench to bring back its hardness. A lot of work because parts are not available 5 years later.

I found with my happily now sold Sportworks, now Landmaster that these uts are maybe assembled in the US but parts are sourced from Venezuela, China etc. After about 5 years parts become unavailable. Pay a bit more and do not buy any "assembled in America" utes. Polaris etc. you will always be able to source parts. Soon as a gas strut goes which buggers your steering etc, cannot be sourced your utv is worthless. Yes other utv shocks do not have the same threads and ends that are required. Also these "assembled in America" U joints for the 4 wheel drive tend to break easily when stressed.

YUP 4 sure. Travis you have smart people, just more of them has to vote every election and you'll never see the democrats again! Trump bashing is done because foreign countries are paying them to. Corruption, kickbacks is at the core of their criminal activities. Look how much the Clinton foundation had to give back. Trump can't be bought so he's not working for foreign interests like Hillary was and is. There are always foreigners trying to destroy the west, this will never stop until be bury all of those muzzies.

found the leak. Should have done this first (as usual). I overinflated the tire and heard the air leak. I've never seen a small piece of crushed limestone puncture a tire before but there it was a small knife tipped shaped piece of limestone stuck into the tire. What are the odds????

Just saw Kenfains post. I tried the soapy water but it was a windy day so didn't work well. I always spit over the valve to see if it's leaking and for good measure replaced the core. It's a slow leak, I may well use Travis suggestion of stop leak even though it can unbalance a tire somewhat. So far I've been chasing my tail trying to find the leak. The Polaris doesn't have 15 hours on it yet. I forget that even new vehicles can have problems, ones even more annoying then regular wear issues. It still bothers me that the valve stems can be easily rotated in the rim. Anyone else have valves that rotate but don't lose air??

no jumps, installing port injection, the carb just won't work right.

a friend of mine has a General Lee clone car with the flag on the roof.

what's the rumor? did't see the above posts, some reason the site didnt tell me

I've heard many that seem to be true

no country has ever remained as it is, always change. I'm sure in future separations are inevitable. Money drives everything.

don't kid yourself many here would like to escape from Lib. hell. Canada will break up if this crap up here continues

all we need now it Trudope strapped in a UTV with a rocket pack jumping the Grand Canyon. He's so full of himself I bet he'd try it, once lol

and Canadians have a poster boy narcissist. Only in a nightmare did I ever think he could get elected. Of course the Liberal leader race had the winning candidate step down, I bet a lot of $$$ was paid to him to do this. Second place Trudeau got it. All he cares about is selfies and being noticed. I can't help but think what other world leaders think of this maniac.

when I watched our election I started to drink again, not really but turned off the news.

Yes most of us up north want this. Every time they vote in Liberal it only means higher taxation and free room and board for economic refugees. We all work for the govt. here with ultimately 60% of our wages grabbed back as tax. I wish I was living in a state without income tax and near a bordering state without sales tax

Hillary is one of many who was corrupted by Saudi $$$$$. Trudeau has taken much from them by just looking at his immigration policies.

we get ripped off here in Canada. Everything extra and add 30% more since our $$ sucks. First the bank of Canada lowered the $ and then the economy so the govt blamed it all on the economy and not what they did, go figure? All our small products at grocery stores shrink and prices rise. I love going to Watertown and seeing real normal sized cans etc.

Like him much better than Trudeau but that's not hard to do
