I've personally seen 2 3P work over 6000 miles each, but ti haven't worked on either for about 4 year. Never had any work besides maintenence, not even a clutch until we did the update, then I replaced them because we were there anyway.

I believe one had a torn axle boot and the other had a sway bar bushing mount bolt strip from the frame nut.

My GM sold his '16 with 2400 miles, no engine work, just frame stuff where it was rolled. His friend had one with 3500 miles and never touched anything, but he greased the bearings ever other ride. He rode every weekend down in Harlan County KY.

The internals of the engine are strong as long as they stay out of the water and the air filter is maintained.

I suspect hondabob64 will win this contest.

Edit: Sorry I think I tagged the wrong user name above. I believe @hondabob is the one I was thinking of. I removed the incorrect tag.

Last I heard is he sold his 1000 pioneer at 19,000 but has many thousands of miles on his new talons. He's part of the reason for my confidence in the honda.

I have 13,000 miles on my 2016 with nothing more than the normal, common issues. (Replaced fuel injector wires, can't seem to keep a muffler intact on the thing.) My engine, trans and sub-trans are rock solid. Still on the original pre-upgraded clutches.

Be cool to see the odometer showing that many miles lol. I’d brag to all my Polaris buddies and show them the picture. 😂

2016 Pioneer 1000-5 Deluxe local used it for guide service..... 40K miles. Rebuilt top end only at 35k.

Was the machine having problems or was the top end done for precautions?
No problems that I heard of, more of a preventative maintenance to help with resale. Pretty sure he had a Honda Rubicon Fourtrax with 64K miles on it before SXS got popular.

You're racking up some serious miles there @Jacktracy

What kind of riding do you do?

My 2018 1000-5 Deluxe is nearing 13K since I bought it used at 2500. I'm running about 4k a year. No problems with the engine / drivetrain other than the injector wires. (At least none that weren't caused by the PO wrecking reverse and clutches, and me just breaking axles and stuff...)
