The Rhino passed 400 hrs a few days ago and is running as good as ever.

One mod I forgot to mention that has worked great is the chain roller. I removed the roller and spring then put a piece of rubber gas hose over the pivot pin so the chain wouldn't hit it and make noise. I also used a piece of an old timing belt to wrap around the front of the swing arm, securing it with a hose clamp just in front of the first brace tube, as it would be on a standard motorcycle. No more noisy roller or rubbing chain.
