I have a 2000 Polaris 550 Touring and a 2005 Polaris RMK 700.
The two work great - just had the top end rebuilt on the touring last winter - funny part is I haven't ran either this winter - been too busy and without a cabin it has become somewhat of a hassle at times. I love the shear power of the RMK, but after a day of fun nothing beats the nice Cadillac ride of the touring. Fiance and I like to go for sunset/dusk runs on the touring and with all teh creature comforts - electric start, reverse, and heated grips it makes for one relaxing ride. -Terracar -------------------- '92 ST185, '88 ST165, '05 Galant LS, '08 Legacy

itstrue nothing runs like a deere!.....they are still going strong...start up no problem and go.....i just encountered a problem today with the cyclone..it needs a CDI box which will run me over 200 dollars.......and possibily two coils.......so that sled has seen it's day this winter.....im gonna put it up and take out the clutches and the motor......and drop a 700 artic cat in it for fun and slowly rebuild/ restore the original 340
