i took my polaris mag 325 to them to get fix , that is where i bought it from . i had carb prob and they said for 200 dollars we will rebuild it , 3 weeks later i am having crab prob again so i called them , and they said for another 200 dollar we will rebuild it again . does anybody see something wrong with this pic .?

Yeah, they think you're stupid and they don't know how to rebuild a carb! Sounds kinda high for a carb rebuild though.

  I  have  been a Polaris tech and service manager for 20 years . flat rate has always been 1 hr plus parts. parts would be $50.00 max. should be around $125.00 to $ 150.00. worst case . if it needs anymore than that, the carb would more than likely need replacing.most techs will spend a lot of time trying to repair when they should replace. What was the problem with it to start with. most dealerships would warranty a repair for at least 30 days and some will go 90 days.

They did some service work on a friend of mines bike. It is an enduro type I guess you would say. Anyway he was driving it home and heard a lot of rattling. Turned it around and went back. They didn't put new oil in and said too bad he shoulda checked it before he left. Another friend bought a polaris 800 Dale Jr edition and it kept overheating. After tons of problems and no help she traded it for a 660 Grizzly. I wouldn't buy a spark plug from them.

I use a guy in middleburg  for all my repairs.  He is certified on suzuki, yamaha, polaris, and also does seadoos and what not.  His name is Rick.  He has a nice shop and is very professional.  He rebuilt the carb on my grizz 660 for 140.00 with new oem parts and I never had another problem.  I have now had some friends take theirs to him for repairs and everyone has been very pleased.  He has a quick turn around time to compared to purcells or beach blvd motorsports.  If you would like his company name and number let me know.

yes yes yes!!!!!! need info on Rick I got a carb on a 500 spm popo that needs rebuilt,plus a 335 that needs bearrings

I have personally had work done by him and also a couple friends.  He is fair on pricing and good turn around time.  Give him a call and see what he can do for you.  He is on 218 maybe a mile down after you turn off blanding.  He is in a set of bays on the right hand side of 218.

Rick is an honest guy,,,and knows exactly what he's doing,, ;)
