i really really wanna ride in that beast! I had no idea polaris made one tbh.......and im from snowmobile country!
They are nuts! I went with the 900XP and it is a beast. It has fox shocks that soak up anything you can throw at it. I installed 4 point harnesses in it just to be safe, feels like you are in a rally car. Polars rzr for the win!

Love the bicycles. Living in Missoula, MT all I rode was my Specialized Giant all-terrain/mountain bike. Learned the hard way to wear a damned helmet there too. ER visit with staples and all was like $3K. Woke up in the ambulance so pretty much just went with it considering all.

But I bought a good helmet (7 3/4) and rode the next day. Sold it to move to AK.

In the early 70's I had a rigid frame Panhead with the suicide clutch and jockey shift. No front brake, extended springer front end and upsweep pipes with fishtail tips. Way cool. You had to let it roll back against somebodys bumper on really steep hills or risk falling over with both feet off the ground at 1 MPH getting started.

Ah the price of fashion. You couldn't make ride a scooter like that now. We used to roll the wire throttle on and hit 50-60 depending on wind and then stand on the seats too. Playing chicken. Whoever sat down last got free beer all night after that. Pat got an ambulance ride instead one night so we stopped that shit. Hit a parked car.

I will be installing a speaker bar stereo with ipod hook up this spring! It does indeed have cup holders, and I strap a cooler down in the box so cold ones are always available as needed on those long rides...

Closer to 20 for the one I have, that includes the extras i put on though... Ouch I know. You can get the 800's for about 14/15 right now. Canadian funds of course I am talking.
