P500 Zero problems in over 2280 miles

[Nathanp500]

Bought my 2017 Pioneer 500 in February with 115 miles on it. Now 8 months later I have over 2280 miles and 163 hours on it with mostly highway miles. Only normal maintenance like oil changes, adjusting clutch, and cleaning air filter. Just did a coolant change and put new tires on the front. The rear tires are still very good. New fronts are way more aggressive and quieter than the originals. Bought them on Amazon for $130 for the pair. Absolutely a fun machine! The transmission does sound noisy for sure, but it works flawlessly! I stay out of deep mud and deep water. I enjoy going up steep hills that this 500 climbs up with no problems.

A friend of mine has a 2020 $25,000 Polaris that stopped shifting with just over 1500 miles

. It was an electrical problem.

very nice looking machine. I too love my little machine (p520) as I can turn it around a tree in the tight woods and climbs like a goat, hence the name "Blue Goat".

The same size as original as the rears were still good. 24x8x12. I travel on road at about 25 to 28 MPH as that is fast enough to get where I am going and it is not as loud. I am in western Wisconsin north of Hudson. I kept the Pioneer in Eagle River Wisconsin this summer at out campground as there are many atv trails up there.
