Many of these vehicles experience at least one flywheel failure during their lifetime. Low-quality epoxy was used on OEM flywheels to secure the magnets to the rotor body. Over time and through repeated heat cycles, the epoxy can fail, allowing the magnets to come loose and contact the stator, potentially causing catastrophic damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFor years, service shops and dealerships have offered low-cost repairs for Polaris flywheels as an alternative to the $400+ OEM replacement. This may sound like a good idea initially, but there are some serious issues to consider.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eA common repair involves using JB Weld Marine Blue Epoxy to reattach loose original magnets or install new ones. Epoxy repairs can provide a short-term fix when done correctly.
