picked it up today. 4 hours driving and 1/2 a tank of gas and i still can't stop smiling.

everybodys busy this weekend so i won't get it out for a good run for a few days, until then laps around the house will have to do. so far i can say that i like the sound of the exhust and
it has a much nicer seat than my old bike (2003 kodiak 450). it does have a annoying engine
whine that i will have to get use to.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I get home from work sometimes and start it up just to listen
to the exhuast and I get that SH!*#T EATING GRIN for hours.

Hey i just got my 800XT too! I love this quad! its really just not fair to everyone who doesnt own one. I went out for about 4 hours. Like dogger9 said not even a half a tank used. I thought it might have been burned more gas, glad it doesnt. The engine does have a little whine to it but whose whining about it when your on it? The engine brake was so impressive thats what i had to get used to. i really didnt have to use my brakes that much at all. I had so much fun i start exploring with it. Trail blazing is amazing! It just goes over everything - pusing 3 inch trees down like they were dead. Going over rocks that were laid out all over in the woods was also impressive. That visco-lock really works well. I forgot to mention I was riding with a passenger. i cant wait to see how it handles single rider. This outty 800XT is just a monster. FAST, AGGRESSIVE, AND AHEAD OF ITS TIME!

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] the 800 is sweet. But you guys are way to fuel efficient [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] 20 miles and 2/3rd tank was drank [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Its a hill climbing machine [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] If your gonna be runnin over sticks and brush busting. get yourself some skid plates ASAP the floorboards appear to be brittle as my brother already broke one [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
