Inflated ego's anyone?!!! Naw, but I did get a wave over and inspection by some dirt bike guys today. The youger girl riding with them knew what it was!! Guy's were totally impressed with what came stock on the bike. They were naming off the tires, shocks,etc. Kinda fun!!! Course I wonder why the ol' Traiboss never attracted such attention?!!

I had the same problem when I got it back in January, from some 250R and 400EX guys. Cripes, even this month I still have guys walk up to me before races and ask about it and check it over!!!!

I stopped and talked with some fun folks on the trail yesterday....one guy just kept looking the quad over the whole time. I still like the people who speed up, then slow down on the freeway. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Complements to those Polaris designers.

Last Tuesday, I had a guy spot me from the other side of the hwy, literally, slow down, pull a U-turn, and follow me into a gas station about a mile down the road, just to talk a little shop and check out the ol' girl on the trailer. After about 10 minutes of conversation, once again, I think I converted another person to become a proud Predator owner.

Guys are finding out that if you powershift through the gears, they are losing 4th gear because they are bending that shifting fork. If you thought you needed to you could shift the first couple...but it's hard on any quad in the long run! I'm from NE Iowa, but am living in Ames going to school.

I had a ******* I argued with for about 20 minutes. He said it was a Raptor!!! lol I started laughing at him (he rode an EX) and he started getting pizzed! He kept saying "Polaris doesn't make a standard manual clutched quad" and that I just had the seat done like that with Polaris on it and a sticker on the back. Wow, some peoples kids, stupid people shouldn't breed, makes more stupid people.
