Finding brass...

[HECKS]

Had the threaded end on my exhaust valve cable break last weekend off the exhaust tiebar. Went to install the new cable today and clean my valves and noticed a lot of brass.
As my heart sunk thinking it was the water/oil pump gear on the crank, came to find out it was actually the exhaust valve bushings. I had clean the valves 2 seasons ago with no signs of brass. A little hard to see the brass fillings until i hit the rags with brake-kleen. Ordered up a new valve base/bushings and should be good to go.

Heads up, Your going to need the alignment bar to put them back together properly and a relearn.

Thanks TRS, my dealer just informed me the that my exhaust tiebar I need replaced is backordered until June.
So going to slap it back together and finish the season off as is.

I guess so.
The part I require is $ 50.00 CAD. There is the whole assembly available, but at $ 400.00 I'll pass.

Your post looks exactly like mine from 2018. The bushings were shot. Luck for me Polaris replace the complete exhaust valves under warranty.

Teth, I had seen your post while goggling the issue lol. Unfortunalty for me, my 4 year warranty just expired this past December.
Hindsight......I should have went through the sled in December.

Hillbillied the guillotine's back on. Dealer just did a relearn for the cable replacement. Back out this weekend hopefully to Golden and run her.
