Default Ricochet A arm guards

Picked up my new red 850xp today. Now the fun starts buying stuff to put on it. Any of you that have the 850's have you put on the Ricochet A arm guards? I had a set on my 2005 700 and was happy with them. Are the ones for the 850 as good and do they cover the entire area? Any help appreciated as always. Am probably going to purchase Warn xt2500 and mounting bracket from KFI. Seems from other posts here that their service etc. has been good. Any comments on them would also be great. Thanks!!!!

I ordered a full set of Ricochet's for my 850 and had them anodized black. They shipped today. I should have them and get them installed next week before my trip to Idaho. I will post up some pics after. It may be a few days.

All bought and ordered direct from Ricochet. They have Black or Olive Drab Green anodizing as options for a slight price increase. I almost got the Olive Drab Green to go with my Camo but after seeing my machine Mike recommended the Black.

I believe mine will be the 1st 850 with the Black colored skids/guards, I know there was one other that ordered the Green. I will try to post some pics on here, I also agreed to send Ricochet some photos.

here is a link to their site.

Well I got the set in and installed. I was mistaken, on a PoPo they only anodize the a-arm guards.


Here are a bunch of pics of the skids before/after the install.
