2002 Polaris Xpedition 425 ATV

Recommended Posts

My buddy is offering to give me his 2002 (I think, or maybe 2001) Polaris Xpedition 425 ATV. I told him I would play around with it if I can find some spare time. I know he's beat the crap out of it, but I'm pretty sure it starts and runs. I think it needs some tires, front rack, and lights, and some other stuff.

If anyone has any XPedition parts or experience, please chime in here. It'll probably be May before I get it, and if I do, it's be a new project to get it up to speed..I guess we'll see.

It pretty much (from what I remember when he used to ride it) looks like:

Well I got the 400 Xplorer (2001) Version, and it even almost looks the same. But I bet the motor is different. It's a good ATV it's good on gas. I lasted almost the hole day driving around, and wasn't even near empty.

As for speed. I can ranch a good amount of speed, and it takes off. For offroad use. For trails it can do what it post to do.. If you want to take it thru mud like I normally do now days. It's good and all. But you must get the mud off the raditior after few runs thru the mud. But thats a given.

If I recall right. Thats a 5 speed tranny. If so that was the weak link on them.

Thanks for the info! How is your suspension? This machine has had issues from what I rermember, with the front struts popping apart on hard bumps.

Yep, 5 speed. :frown:

I have a 2000 Xpedition 425 Ive had since new. I have had NO problems with the transmission. I did have the fix done to the tranny when the recall came out in '02. (supposedly a bolt had backed out in a few trannys and caused rear wheel lockups ) Other than that and a set of axle bearings and seal, a battery and 3 sets of brake pads, Ive done nothing but ride this quad nearly EVERY Sunday in mud, water, sand, dirt etc. It has not been babied at all and its always come back for more.

This pic shows the type of riding we do.

      Hello everyone, I just picked up an 02 LT-F250F the other day and have been in the process of tearing it down to fix some stuff- one of which was the cylinder base gasket leaking like a sieve. Well, I know why that is now, and I also discovered that someone had been in there before. I didn't take pictures, but it looks like it was probably run low on oil at some point, the cam journals and the "bearings" (for lack of a better term) in the head and the valve cover are totally wiped out, very deep grooves.  From what I know it's very difficult to repair aluminum in this way, so I'm trying to figure out where to go next.
       
      1. Have someone grind down the head and valve cover and fit actual bearings in since the aluminum is screwed, and have the cam ground down to match.  I have no idea what this would cost.
      2. Buy a replacement head+cam+valve cover.
       
      #1 I was hoping someone might have some advice on, but #2 seems like it'll (probably) be the more cost effective option.  However I'm running into some difficulty, it seems like the 2001 and 2002 models specifically use a different head part number,  11100-19B10, instead of  11100-19B01 like for all earlier models.  What exactly is the difference between them? There are obviously far more of the earlier heads because it ran for over 10 years.  Are they actually interchangeable? I've also noticed there are heads from the LT250EF that has 4 valve heads but also otherwise look identical.  Would those work as well possibly?  I'd like to not have to drop $500 on machine work or new heads on a $1300 quad that I'm already putting a bunch of new parts on.  Oh, and it has a new piston and the cylinder itself looks pretty good too, as I said someone was in here before me.
       
      Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I'll post pics of the carnage tomorrow.

      Are there any good mods for adding a radio, or Bluetooth speaker that's kid friendly? My son thinks he needs music while riding around.
