Polaris is not the way to go with food plots, we have a sportsmas 700 that we tried using and it would overheat and shut off after about 5-10 min of use where the kodiak 450 could go about 45 min before needing to be cooled down. something with the polaris being a high output engine I think, liquid or fan cooled makes a big difference too, if it is liquid cooled make sure you watch the fluid levels i went through about 3 tanks of coolant in about an hour with the polaris.
