Where you at Sheep maybe I'll buy yours. I found a 07 close to me with only 50 miles for 8000 said he had over 12000 invested. It is a deluxe with plow, winch, rack extenders, windshield with mirrors. It's all decked out like a pappy quad but still looks good. The ad says it's never been out of his 1 acre yard and it looks like it. The only thing holding me back on that is I gotta pay my Stealth off first which will be in Dec. And I was gonna trade the wifes Scrambler in towards it.

 

I still don't see the power steering, but nice look and new features but time will tell us.

They list power steering as an Option.

 

Its up on the Polaris site, looks like everything is true, old style still available too.

XP with or w/o ESP.

Well.....I think they're ok but I'm happy with my '08. The bigger radiator is good and the digital speedo looks pretty cool but honestly I'm not too sure I'm sold on power steering on any quad. Mine steers nice without it and I feel like you might lose the "feel" of the trail with power steering. I might change my mind if I rode one but I don't think so. They also say it's has a more narrow feeling,I like how wide my bike feels it's one of the things that drew me to it in the first place. It's hard to pass judgement without riding it but I doubt I'll be running out to trade anytime soon.

 

I think they are GREAT!
anti bump back steering i beleive is std w/ EPS optional.

 

Anti bump may be nice, I remember I hit a tree root hard and it whipped back my
handlebars and hit right in the center of my stomach. OUCH, it hurt and my wrist
was abit sore too. Not sure if these new steering features would be better or not?

I am all for the power steering, wish I had it on the 08. The smaller storage is not so great I want more dry storage built in. I wonder is Polaris stills builds the motor or if it is outsourced. Looks like the Lock and ride accessory's will not work on the new rack, not sure really just judging by looking. More ground clearence and larger tires are good if they kept the center of gravity the same, the 08 says a 25% incline is max.

The 09 looks lighter but the specs say a tad heaver. All in all a good start on a new model I think.

 

The new tires look plane and not vary agressive, compared to the PXT's. I like the PXT"s they are a good all around tire IMOP>

 

I wonder whats up with the exhaust on the xp
