30 something degrees and you're in awe that it started? 75% of my riding is done under 30 degrees. I take my Polaris ice fishing all season long w/ no problems if it sat for an hour or a week. No offense but, I'd put more faith in my quad than that.

It wasn't so much that I didn't have faith in it, it was more like I was proud of it. As you know AC's aren't the oldest quad on the market so I didn't know how it would handle it's first bit of cold weather, especially with it going a couple of weeks with out starting it. Yes I do have plenty of faith in my AC. I love it. I would chose it over any out there.(Don't quote me on this). I have more faith in this bike than any I have ever ridden on.

You obviously have never ridden a MAX.

I need one to keep me warm in the winter. Also one with dual wheels for added traction.

Where did the notion that Polaris quads
are hard to start in the cold come from.
I can only comment from my own experience.
I have been pleasantly surprised that my
Magnum (98-425) starts so easily when
cold. Half choke, hit the button, drive off.
I only use the choke for 15 seconds or so.
It runs great in the cold.

My uncle ownes a 97 400 sportsman and it is very hard to start and stay running. I wasn't refering to all Polaris. I was using a Polaris 2 stroke bike as an example. You Polaris owners like to jump to conclusions a little too quick. I was using it as an example. I know other bikes are hard to start in the cold so lets not worry about it.
