Well, maybe i should post this in the Honda forum, since I was snapping pics, the only pic of my polaris is together with the Honda Rincon and 450EX riding with me. We went through some really technical stuff, unfortunately when you go through the stuff, you don't take pics....I got some pics of the ride and the Rincon climbing through some stuff and going up through a ice fall....

Fun all the same...Now I have to say, I smoke the Rincon on the trails with my '05 700 EFI....it just doesn't slide as well...I have to say that when we got stuck in some crazy stuff that the Polaris On Demand AWD worked better also....Rincon is a nice machine though, I like it....

I almost had a fatal today too....I drove a stick up through both radiator guards....but didn't make it through....

Pics from today

nice

 

Great pics Dave. Doesnt look like you need your mud tires on that trip.

 

Actually I did, doesn't look like alot of mud on machines, they got loaded....i went up through this one part of the arroyo and i went in the water and didn't think it was that deep....sunk to the rear rack, front end was pulling up...

the funny part is you can't see how knarly parts of this ride were....can't take pics in most of those area's and it was only about 28 degrees outside....so I wasn't prone to taking my camera out....

i'll admitit, i am jealous.

if you go look back in the directory, you see a couple pics of the damage, only parts of the stick got through....but realize also that the whole thing is pushed in over an inch....oh well, I'll just push it back out....the stick was about 1 1/4" thick,,,,it was still there when I got back to the truck, didn't know it....

also added a little mud pic on the machine...it was somewhat muddy, but the new Polaris's keep mud off pretty well due to the larger fenders...


todays pics

 

oh yeah,

how well did that honda 450 do in all those tight situations?

amazingly that Honda 450 did well, the guy is pretty experienced....he got stuck a couple of times, once in the ruts/mud and another in just ruts....he climbed the stuff pretty well also....
