| Re: trouble with polaris 550 xp IDK if your talking about the same thing but on my 500 sometimes when you switch it into a different gear ( low high w/e) it doesn't quite lock in. If you give it just a little throttle you will feel it click in. If you were to give it alot of power when it wasn't quite in gear i figure you would get a loud clunk. JMO |

| Re: trouble with polaris 550 xp I have a 09 Polaris 550 xp. It has the same noise. I was thinking about taking it into the dealer, too. After what you guys are saying, I guess that is a noise the Polaris makes. Thanks for posting your concern, it makes me feel better about the way my quad runs. I've put on a lot of enjoyable miles this summer. |

| Re: trouble with polaris 550 xp The loud clunk noise in the new XPs seems to be a normal thing. I spoke with my dealer about it and it has to do with the new EBS system. BTW my 700 X2 does not make this same noise.
