Say hello to the new Thor Toy!
I picked up today my new ride. It is a 2012 850XP Touring Limited that was built just last week. Let the mods begin! As soon as the touring arrived I removed the factory wheels & tires with 0.2 miles on them & I installed a brand new set of C7 wheels & Black Diamond XTR tires that keep it right at 50 inches wide at the shocks set at the 2nd setting. I also added my 3 in one ATV hitch.
I will be removing the Polaris winch that came with the Limited package and installing a Viper Elite 4K or 4.5K winch. I will also be removing the mirrors that came with in and installing one of my kits. These are just too short. I also have on the way fender flares, Ricochet A Arms in black, Hid 5K lights, Rotopax fuel packs to install inside the front box and Guru front and rear bumpers.
I am also in the process of designing a lock and ride box that will fit around the rear seat and mount with the lock and ride mounts that I have made for our other lock and ride boxes. I feel that when you have a young rider like my son it is important to have something surrounding then when on the trail.
Here are some pics of the new unit.

Nice looking ride MrThor!.......you may want to check on the rear foot well bracket so it doesn't chew up your new rear tires, I recall a Touring thread something to that effect....

I'm considering that combo.

Wow, nice looking. I don't think mine has ever been that shiny! Make sure you take pics after your reThoration, and tell us the rest of the Thtory. You have a knack for making a nice machine that much better.
