Moose, I rode two 850 XPs, the two up was really nice but I didn't get in a lot of seat time, mostly with two riders for photos.

I thought it had a great ride and was very comfortable and didn't lack in the power department but I do wish that Polais' EPS had more road feel to it.

If anyone is trying to decide between the 800 and 850 take the 850, they have all of Polaris' newest features.

ATV Shows

You can see mw on the 850 2up in this video with my passenger, our chaperone from Polaris. Her job was to provide everthing possible that Doug and I needed. She would take one ATV back to the ranch and bring us out another one.

Polaris was a very gracious host. They even provided Quevo Gold and grapefruit juice just for me.

They tried

I was impressed with what Polaris is doing, it must be costing them tons.

Today the have a larger share of the market but the market has gotten soo much smaller that they really aren't selling any more ATVs than they were before.

I think that's why they are moving to Mexico so they can afford to continue investing the amount of money that they are into new products and improvements. JMO

This is where our bailout money should be going, to help American Companies like Polaris stay in America, not some stupid f-----g bank that deserved to go broke in the first place. I don't think I want to get started. (insert extremely mad pissed off face)
