wow i love these pics! especially the orange one cause thats the one we are getting this week!

 

Well, I've had some good rides between Jackman, Maine on vacation and a couple local rides in the mud and rock covered trails. Dislikes: Seems to have less breakover than the X2 had. Bottoming out a little more even with the air ride rear shocks all the way up. Got to be careful of the power steering I thought I had bumped it up to medium and had bumped it up all the way to max. It was so easy to push the handlebars that I quickly oversteered and ended up off camber on a tall rock. Can't see the winch drum the way they have it tucked up under the plastic. Would be nice to know when I'm nearing the end of the cable. Don't want to pull it all the way out. Powder coating on the racks could be thicker. Easily remedied with Herculiner. I'll get to it at some point. Likes: Power. Up on the open trails in Maine I really got to open it up. Was nice to be able to blip the throttle to kick out the rear end of the quad when experiencing understeer. Power steering is very nice other than my mistake mentioned above. Much less arm fatigue in the slow technical sections. Wife loves her new comfy throne. Overall, a great machine with lots of functionality. Got pretty decent gas mileage up in Maine. Mix of high speed, open trails, and about 10 miles of slow stuff yielded about 24 mpg.

 

Thank you for the complement! PM sent as requested.

Have to change the clutching?

 

i didnt change the clutch yet and it does fine in the mud and to pull bigger quads out of the mud its light enough that it just glides over the top of the mud
