Default Finally got to ride the new Popo's!

Well the wifey and I finally got to ride today and man what a blast! The bikes where amazing. They are very comfortable with plenty of power and the AWD works really well. I think we made the perfect choice for our type of riding. Oh yeah I got really stuck...thank God I sprung for a winch!

And one of the Wife cuttin' it up. I was impressed with how she done today,she hasn't ridden much ....she had a blast!

We where at St.Joe state park in southeast Missouri, very cool place to ride!

Yeah that part sucks! We got home at 4:30pm and I got done cleaning right at dark! The manual says not to use a pressure washer but I put the "delicate" nozzle in and went to work. There is no way in hell I could have gotten all that mud off with a garden hose!

Yea I agree, I think what works for me is spend all the time getting up in those places
to get the mud and junk out, than put soap (dish washing liq.) rinse on it, then hit again
and go over areas with soap and water, finally see improvements. after all done and cleaning,
put some furniture pledge (polaris recommends) on the platics, I rub it in a circular fashion
and go over it again in some areas. gets the mud stains out and looks sharp!

Does that polish really work on the plastic......RticKwad?...........Will the dust and dirt stick to it faster on the next ride?
Does it change the color in any way?
Thanks........Caper..........

I think it would, I dont' use pledge, I work in auto detail, I typically just go over the entire machine with a silicone based interior spray from a can. Put's a nice shine to the whole machine.


Note: It also can hide scratches!
