Just sold my 11pro with a mtntk fix kit and it ran well, now with the 13pro I just bought I am wondering if a fix kit is needed. Lots of talk about thicker skirts and different case, what is the real deal? As far as I know the loose pistons haven't changed, am I wrong? Can someone clarify. MH? Dead horse beating in progress, ya I know too much conflicting info out there.

I would at least wait till you hit 1,000 miles and do one for sure-
Keep the warranty as long as you can ( if it was transferred to you) cause if your doing it right off the bat- you have blown the warranty of the motor unless you have a
outstanding dealer .. IMHO

I have 2743 miles on my stock 13 pro 163 Ive had since new. I ride it like I stole it, launch off everything I see, roll it & mostly ride whistler where we have long steep climbs everywhere so I have it pinned constantly. All I've done since my warrantee was up was turn up my oiler 2 turns & I DO NOT run Polaris oil ever..I run Legend ZX2SR only.

I just did my 13 at 1000 miles. The pistons look like they have 10,000 miles on them. I wish I would have done it sooner but waited out the warranty

Thicker skirts, same design/height, same porting quality, etc. I'd be doing new pistons before it gets close to 2k, unless you always have an easy tow. Off warranty it's your choice. Under warranty, plan it out and put in new OEM's to carry you through end of warranty. Let's you look at the cylinders/skirts at the same time, plus you know sizing, no guessing if they're loose. Then you know. Better than going down on the backside of Rhubarb Mt., and you get some fresh performance to boot.
