[zimmer1310]

tough question but what are people seeing for miles on 2012-2013 800 etecs? i have a 2012 and plan on hanging onto it for the kid to ride in a few years as he has a 550 fan now.. currently have 5700 miles, had the recall done at 4k miles and had local shop clean the valves in the off season. cant say enough about the engine. Thanks.

my 2011 800 Etec blew last weekend, it had aboout 8,900 miles on it, recall was done at 4,200 miles which included a crank. I had hoped to get at least 8 or 9 thousand out of the 2nd engine. Waiting for the place I took it to tell me the bad news.

I had 8700 on my 2011 when I sold it. Recall was was at 5000 also included a new crank. Ran flawless after recall also.

I have a 2012 800 tnt, with 4500 miles. I was told to sell them before 5k because of crank bearing issues it this true. I had the pistons re done at 3500 miles and it runs great, just worried because I hear about the crank issue from lots of people. I still have not received a recall on any crank related items.
