WOW! first ride on the 850XP
Well it made it up to 22f here today so i figured i might as well start the Sportsman break in.
This machine is amazing and the tires flat out suck. ha-ha
after I had a couple hours on it i took it down the dirt road and slowly worked up to full throttle than back down to a stop again I did this a couple times before letting it sit for it's cool down.
Even with the motor not being broke in yet this thing pulls like i couldn't believe. I've never ridden an ATV that when going slow and puttering around its as easy to handle as a 500ho but when you give it some gas the thing breaths fire. as i was working upto full throttle the more gas i gave it, it just kept pulling even harder ever at higher speed. Polaris flat out outdid them selfs on this ATV I've owned a lot of machines and this thing blows them all out of the water.

it is a good looking atv- it would take a lot to get me to consider switching from my can-am outty with the white knuckle rotax 800- that 850xp might be the only atv in the big-bore line up that might change my mind- I've ridden the 550xp many times and wasn't impressed- my goal is to get some ride time this spring on the 850xp... and then take it from there
