Yup, pretty gay spending 25 grand on a machine and have it not even make it through the first ride cause of the oil cap wasn't on and the timing chain was on too tight from factory, then sit at the dealer for 2 weeks, then have a axle break the day after I pick up up so now the machine will be...
So it's driver error cause I have mud on my machine lol man it's a machine built for mud, and I know these things break, but usually it doesn't happen on the second ride with only 60km. Pretty gay but oh well. And ps I'm not new to atving. Been riding quads for 14 years.
Well seriously though.. its a xmr. Pretty pathetic the axles can't handle mud. I could see if the wheels were cranked all the way in one direction and I nutted on it, but this was pretty much straight on as you can see in the pics. As soon as it happened I got out and took pics
Well, went out for a ride today. Good news is the oil cap was on tight. But half way through my ride I blew out a axle trying to crawl out of this hole. And No the wheels were not cranked in one direction when it blew. Ended up being stuck for 4 hours trying to get this pos out without 4X4...
Some chain was put on too tight from factory and it took out a plastic bushing or something. They said that I most likely wouldn't of made it through that ride even if the oil cap was on. I'll know more about it tomorrow.

I'm looking to get a new stand up jet ski but I can't really find much on them, I seen that Yamaha makes a superjet but do they sell them in Canada? Kawasaki used to have the sxr but it seems like they don't make them anymore.
I'm not too happy with this. I'm sure everyone knows how much these xmrs cost, and I only got 30kms on it. Complete bs. All that water Is forsure not good for the break in.

Went for the first real ride on my new 1000 maverick xmr today, after just less than a hour of bombing through deep water and putting this machine to the test I got a check engine light and low oil warning in limp home mode. So I lifted up the passenger seat to look at the oil cap and this is...
