I'm going to look at a camo 420 tomorrow. Even took the day off work. I'll be hauling my trailer with me so if the dealer and I can agree on a number, I'll be dragging home a new Rancher!

If you dont mind, how much did you pay OTD?

 

hows the EFI? does it idle smooth when ice cold? Does it fire right off when you bump the starter, or does it crank a few strokes like most EFI's?

 

Starts right up when cold, without any hesitation. Runs smooth at start, but idles kind of high until it warms up, which isn't ideal because that's when the oil is still ice cold.

I am interested to see how the EFI does. I haven't tried things yet like pulling off the airbox lid, etc., to see what difference that makes and how the EFI adapts to it.

Our mountain rides start at lower altitude in the valleys, and then we ride up into the mountains from there. Really interested whether the EFI will be the ultimate solution for high altitude riding. There can be a 6,000+' change in altitude on a one day's ride! Won't be able to take it to high altitude (~6,000') for a week or so, and really high altitude (~10,000' and above), is all snowed in so that will have to wait until spring.

This is Calif., and all the delers here ream you for transportation and setup fees. Plus, this is a brand new model, so absolutely nobody is going to cut you any slack on the price. I had no choice but to pay MSRP for the quad, and they knocked a couple hundred off the fees, but then there are taxes and stickers, so I got out the door for about $1,000 over MSRP. It sucks, but that is how it is out here.......
