Default First trail ride on my Prairie 650.. Thumbs up!!

Well, my friend and I went on a ride today. Boy is that thing fun. I had all I could do to not just open it up. Gotta do the break in period... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
Put on about 25 miles today or so. Ran good. Turned up the idle a little and I like that better. I let my friend ride mine for a while and he liked the power but not the ride. He has a Sportsman 600 Twin. I have to agree with him on the ride, but it rides just fine as well. Can definately tell it is lighter. Right at the end I was gonna load it up and screwed around a little and popped a couple wheelies and then my friend tried it on his sportsman and couldn't. All it would do is spin. Seemed like it just doesn't have the low grunt like the Prairie.

Very, very satisfied with it...... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

glad you had fun. I've had mine out every day since thursday when i got it, and have 110 miles.

Hey what happened to "i gotta do the break in" mr wheelie? I know you hit more than half throttle to wheelie [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Nope. Never hit more than half throttle. It doesn't take anything to pull a wheelie on these things. Well on mine anyways. Tons of torque. Just blip the throttle with your weight back a little and up it comes.
