lean ,my temps stay around 130 ; dealer says no reflash needed, time will tell

Get a new dealer. Seriously, find a dealer that will give you the new flash. I didn’t have any problems with my RMK, but I got the new flash anyway. It runs stronger, and I feel a more confident that I will get back home without a tow rope.

Maybe the dealer is thinking he can send a bigger warranty bill back to Polaris for a rebuild latter, if he doesn’t give you the new flash now.

What happens if you don't silicone the holes?

My buddy's 09 dragon burnt the sliders off at 500km's. We were at renshaw and he had to ride it out and the rails were toast when we got to the parking lot. The slider's were covered under warranty but not the rails. He had an 07 dragon prior to this one with 2200 km with no slider issues and the 07 dragons didn't have any wheels in the front either. On buddy's 09 they found that the front shock on the rear skid was pooched and as soon as he would sit on it he would bottom out and if you were in the trailer you could see that the only part of the track on the ground was the back 18", so they figured that this contributed to the problem. Oh yeah and he used scratchers 100% of the time when on the trail.
