Congrats on the XP. Since this is your first ATV and you want some advice here it is!
1. Take the free safety training course offered by Popo.
2. Take the time to become familiar with the riding characteristics of your XP-you picked one sweet/fast/powerfull ride to start out on.
3. Purchase some comfortable protective riding gear and use it.
4. Get a factory service manual.
5. Bookmark this website. Great resource to help with issues or modifications.
6. MOST IMPORTANT-enjoy the ride!!!!

Congrats!
Advice:Get ready for your face to be sore from smiling.
Everything switzomatic said. The 850 is no joke for a 1st ATV
Read the Owners Manual cover to cover right away...alot of it will be common sense and even seem silly...but many questions often asked on the forums are answered in the Owners Manual.
There is a tow hook on the front that you can use to strap the front down on the trailer..I have seen many people not new to ATVs strap to the winch,a-arms, frame ect. on the XPs and when I point out the loop they had never noticed it.
And lastly search 850 XP here and have fun reading until Thursday...you do that and you will be well ahead of the game on getting familiar with the machine.
