Well later boys and keep on wheelin!!!!

Nice! Looking forward to hitting the trails here with my daughter and seeing how she handles the mud on her 300sp I got her for Christmas. She's already talking about a lift and bigger tires(definitely takes after me). Told her we'd have to wait at least until it's broken in and out of warranty-lol

I'm thinking the only reason your wife is on the 850xp is because yours has the winch and bigger tires?

I bought my 6yo a chinese 110 to beat up on until he learns to ride- then I'll grab him a popo 90. I had to make spacers to make the front & rear tires wider, those damn chinese 110cc atv's are so unstable, they roll over way too easy.

How old was your son when he started riding?

you are mostly right beergut the 800 will drive circles around the 850 in snow and mud, but my wife is 110 pounds and has a real hard time steerin that 800 so i figured if i can make her happy with power steering for the few times she will ride i get to be happy too cause now i got an 850 to ride when she isn't riding win win was my thinkin

Too funny. I knew there was another motive. Make sense. I can only image new rubber on that 850 within the year and various other modification "she" requires.

LMAO Funride that is pretty much exactly how it will be i will just have to plant subtle messages as the year goes on such as would be nice if you had a winch to pull yourself out or of course you would be able to go through what i can with good tires, don't know bout you guys but it always goes much smoother when mama wants it too, rather than trying to convince her that it's needed
