1330 miles and no engine problems.
No BS how are the 2013 motors doing?

900 miles, and just cleaned the exhaust valves, looked down the ports and the pistons look flawless, not even a slight line, litterally look like it has never been ran, other than the port staining and the wash on top. Have been running oil in the fuel from day one. Does get the "bog" if you hold a steady mid range rpm 5500-6500 for a long time then nail it. Runs great if you just manipulate the throttle, and don't hold steady, even the bog is not that bad, just back off and let her have it. No codes, and all stock except for a can. Seat of the pants, feels like it has more snort than my 11. Bars shake like a Mofo, just like the 11.

333 miles Runs strong.....pulls like a beast. All stock except for a can......don't add oil and didn't turn up the oil pump. Hey that's what the 4 year warranty is for. I love this sled!!!
only heard of one in my small area (a friend of mine) lost a rod at really low miles (150-200) dealer mechanic figured a oil delivery issue
warrantied back up in days
they seem to be better than the 11 and 12 engines

I have 3 2013's, one with around 1300, one with around 800 and one around 250. All have had zero motor issues.
2011 800 Pro 1400 miles. Zero problems.
2013 800 Pro 700 miles. Zero problems.
I guess that makes me a Zero!
And I do mean, zero problems with anything. Zero, Zippo, Nothing!
Nice sleds and even nicer shop!

500 miles, not a.problem with anything. Stock + HPS can. Sled is super quick and responsive. Love it! I haven't heard of any other '13's in my area that have had a problem. Everyone I talk to loves their Pro.

That was my friend, he lives in GP. Dropped a piston skirt with just a little over 100 miles and toasted the engine.
2011, 1600 miles, totally stock with 12 -13 pounds of boost zero issues.

Parts guy at work lost his crank bearing seal at 1300 miles, burnt down the piston and totalled the head too. was back up and running in under a week with a whole new motor.
this was on a 13? that the skirt broke

I visited with Ron at HighMark rentals in west Yellowstone the other day. His fleet of 2013 800 Pros has around 3400 miles each with ZERO engine problems. No added oil in the gas either. Their crew broke the sleds in carefully before renting them out. Can't help but think some crank failures are a result of oil pumps not being bled during setup.

13 163 Pro, 500 Mountain miles, never a issue.
Sounds about right. Pump bleeding issues, and maybe a few crank bearings that were flawed new...
Ive enjoyed NOT reading about engine failures all winter so far. Getting closer to a reliable engine

Food for thought ,,,,my 13' Pro R6 would backfire/pop after a hard run wfo and the only thing dealer could come up with was fuel pump/regulator. Spec is 58-60 psi and I was 62. So the theory is injectors are spraying too much on decel into the hot pipe and then you get the backfire. Polaris is replacing fuel pump cause they can't figure why it's doing this. Everything else is in spec. I thought for sure tps but it's good. Sorry for the Hi-jack

Great to hear the 13's have been solid!
Over 600 miles of hard riding and no problems at all. Didn't have problems on my 11 until I hit the 1000+ mile mark though so I am hopeful, but I am not a blind Polaris loyalist either. Could still have problems in the foreseeable future.
