Default just got back

well i just got back from pickin up my scrambler from the dealer. front left CV joint blew....warranty covered it. while i was there, i got to take a look at some of the new models. the first was the 800.....i was expecting it to be bigger physically, but sitting side by side with the 700EFi they were close to the same size......looked real nice though with the wheels, dual exhausts...... i also got a look at the 700 MV....... my god that thing is a tank.......i mean its BUILT.....i couldnt see where the rear whinch control was though..... i saw the fronts. the whole dual tanks was pretty sweet too.

overall polaris did a decent job on their new lineup. i still wouldnt get a sportsman at all just because it doesnt fit my riding style, but theyre good for theyre made for.....

The New EFI machines sure are heavy. But they have enough power to get around pretty well. :-)
