I purchased two new 1999 GP1200's in May of 1999.
May 2001, after 124 hours on both SKI's, the motors seized up. No waranty. Dealer said they
weren't winterized correctly. It cost me over
4K to get them both fixed.
The failure was lean condition on number three
cylinder. The only symptoms were the ski would
stall at high speed. Would be hard to start, but
would start. On one of them, the piston skirt was
broken which trashed the cylinder.
What troubles me is that they both failed at the
exact same time with identical hours on them. Has
anyone else had a similar problem ? Any input
would be appreciated.
Thanks
