NEW XP's
#41
Took mine out today in the rain. Me and fatboy took our 850's, and my 15 year old daughter took the kawi. Had a riot in the mud and the slick clay. XP's do great donuts!! Then we needed both our winches to pull out a renegade 500 that was 10 feet under water. Literally. Guy driving it got too close to the deep end of the pond and tail slid in. I did break my trunk latch though. Bet Polaris wants alot for one of those!

EH0850LE011 is Nicasil
EH0850LE012 is Iron Lined
BTW I find it easier to get to the front upper Zerks by using a hose attachment and come through from the opposite side..ie stick it through the frame then reach across underneath the machine and guide it to the Zerk.

I have an 09 550 XP in camo. I love this machine and it is awesome. Only had one minor problem so far, but hey that's why they give you a warranty. I dont regret my decision at all for buying this machine. I spent countless hours researching which machine to buy, so the 550 obviously made an impression on me. I admit the stock tires leave you wanting more. What do you think about the MUDLITE XTR. They look awesome to me. Any imput?

The 850 is amazing, the only issues I have had, I know why. Not the machines fault. I ride this machine very hard in all types of terrain. In the snow it is by far the best thing I've seen.
I upgraded to the xp from an 08 800, huge difference! Not only in power but stability and comfort. However, if you just ride slow semi-level terrain and don't need the extra speed and power, then why upgrade?
Now, if your into hills and pushing the limits, its definetely worth it.
I worry about the ball joints etc..... only because I've read about failures. I check them regularly and see no problem. This quad jumps and wheelies every time it is out.
I ride with a big bore group and we are very competitive, its not perfect, but better than the competition in 95% of situations.
