It has been some time since I have posted on this site, but after another beautiful weekend of riding in northern PA, my "new in 2004" RX Warrior graduated to the 10,000 mile club. She is on her second track, second rear suspension (broken W-arm), 3rd jackshaft bearing and a chain case bearing rebuild. That along with paying attention to hyfax, carb cleaning and grease, she has been a complete joy! Had occasion to line up with a Renegade 900 turbo and she was neck and neck the whole way. Mind you, I paid a higher price on the suspension end, but the exhaust note was well worth the price! When it is time, I might choose comfort over engine, but I will never regret taking the 4-stroke challenge in '04! I thought I might ask others about rx's with high miles, even if the 10,000 turns out to be rather low in comparison.

Have a great day all!!
 
I’ve seen them for sale in eastern Canada with over 40,000kms on them and looking pretty stock to boot! They must have some comfy trails there cause both mine get beat up pretty bad
 
Had racked up 11,000 miles on my 03 RX-1, I took the 4-stroke challenger a year earlier , before it becoming my backup in 2011 when I upgraded to my 08 Apex. It still gets ridden around home but usually only take the two Apex's up with me when going north to ride. I ditched the No-action suspension early on and went with an AD Bovin Expert-X that was eventually stretched to a 136" so as to not have to trade it in for a Warrior so the ride really wasn't an issue for me. ;)!
 
sold my 05 rx to a younger brother (only have 3) around 10000 km with full race olins on it. it is sitting around 18000 km atm as he bough my phazer and prefers riding it on the short hops. still puts trail milage on it.

bought an 04 war with 20000km on it for a younger brother that he could not go pick up. he modded it for off trail with a 151" track and extensions. 2 bulkheads and tracks later got 5000 km more on it before he endo'd it and retired it. still have the carcass at my place as the motor still runs great and just looking for a chassis for it to call home.
