Looking at a 99xcr 700 triple today, has 7k miles with allot of upgrades at 5k miles, owner says rings were replaced and cylinder hone was good. Just curious if anyone has any idea about how many miles you can expect to get out of this engine before some kind of catastrophic failure Thanks

Thanks, The sled is extremely clean and looks to be well maintained. I guess it kind of a crap shoot, Ive looked at quite a few sleds with engines that have been overhauled at various mileages for whatever reason.

wow i never knew there was a xcr 700 in 1999, let alone that polaris made a 700 with VES!! must be a pretty rare sled, never heard of such a thing. i love the 700 triple, and VES would make it better- i want one!
