just curious, what's the life expectancy of a stock motor with regular maintenance and normal riding conditions? I've got a 2008 with 250 hours on it and have never had any issues with the motor that I know of, still seems to run great. I've primarily used mine on construction sites, not a lot of hard riding or sustained high speed riding either. Does adding mods shorten the life span? I've put on a Muzzy dual exhaust, UMP filter, and a bored out throttle body from Holz.

I have over 12,000 miles on my 08 RzR. I don't know how many hours.
at about 10,000 miles it started using a little more oil than it should. it got worse at about 11,000 miles. some where after 12,000 miles I got caught way out and had to do a long run at higher speed than I normally run and it used up all the oil in the crank. I started hearing the lifters ticking and stopped to check the oil and just a touch on the stick. I had 2 miles left to go and no help out where I was. I took a chance and lost. as I idleded in the last 1/4 mile it seized up just as I pulled into camp. now I am looking for a new Motor. I don't know of any body getting over 12,000 miles yet on a 2008-800 RzR.
