Most Trouble Free Miles on 08-09 D8

[Adobe-Al]

Who has the most miles without a major breakdown on a 08-09 800 Dragon?
I think the most I have seen on posts was around 1500 miles.
I hope someone has more than that. Please no long stories just your miles before it blew or miles it is still going on?

Great idea for a post!! I just snowchecked a 2010 and you guys have me scared $hitless with your stories -- I guess I should have read up before.

Hopefully we will all hear some good news from Polaris in the near future.

2000 miles 09D8, 10000 ft and above---believe that's a key. No hiccups, all conditions --mostly backcountry.

Mine has always been 8500 or higher, So I wouldn't credit it all to elevation.

First time, piston seized at 1150 miles. Second time (still in shop, parts on back order), had 750 miles since the last rebuild when it cratered again. 08 800 163".

I've got 1100 miles on my 08 D8. Only issues have been the fuel bobble around 3000' in the mid-range. Waiting until the end of the season for the "latest" reflash.
