Last night the wife and I went down to our friendly local Polaris shop and I got something for myself....
Behold!
Took her over to my buddy's house because there's just enough snow to ride a bit... had to start breaking her in - I was a bit anxious to go for a ride.
It's got a 550 fan engine, 155" paddle track, 2-up seating for the wifey that I can remove in 5 seconds flat, towing / freight hauling capability, all digital readout, electric start, electronic reverse via the new method of switching the timing so that the engine runs in reverse - no extra parts or weight! I love that reverse action. The hard saddle bags are also removable in a couple seconds, and have some liners inside them so that when you get to the cabin, you just lift the whole bag out to take inside instead of carrying a bunch of loose stuff.
So... today I believe I'm going to go to a bit of cruising around on the trails very carefully since there's really not enough snow to go bombing around in a carefree manner.
