last sunday was my first ride on the 02 500i auto. all I can say is WOW! we only went 25 miles and this thing isn't even broken in yet but does it ever work great. this is my first wheeler and I cant beleve what these things can do. the last time I was on a wheeler it was a 250 fourtrax we drove on old dirt roads and wasn't much fun. There was tons of mud and small creek crossings, some still with ice on them (i live in kingston, ont, canada)when my wife bought it for me(birthday) she also got me the trunk seat combo and my 4yr old son sat in it like a king on gladiator day without any problems.
The ride of this bike is unbelievable he even fell asleep for about half an hour and during that time i hit some nasty bumps without him even waking up!
I am a die hard cat sled fan and if i had known that atv's were this much fun i would have bought one a long time ago.
Just not ready to give up on my sleds, but am willing to explore with 4 wheels. no map

 

Congrats!!! Keep us posted on your experience with the quad.
