Cool! I'd love the dual tanks!

Interesting that I saw in the photos the winch cable safety strap said WARN on it...Maybe Polaris surrendered to Warn when it comes to government requests due to reliability over the long term and in the field??

I like it. I think it has a winch on the back too but it didn't say.

Those little circles above the winch...

Machine guns or mini rocket launchers?

We sold two MV7's when they came out in 2005 and I don't think you could hurt em very much with a sledge hammer! Had the 700 carb engine and I can just imagine what it would be like with the 850 now! I wanted to get one an demo it out with a dummy 50 cal mounted,but got vetoed down! Would have been fun to ride it around our shop area right off the 8 lane freeway where we were located and see how many stares(or cops) it would have drawn! OPT

It loks like a pair of rings where you tie it down. There's another pair on the back.

I sensed sarcasm with his post about the rings...

But if we actually wanted to speculate...I think they aren't just for tie downs, but also for securing a parachute on for dropping out of a plane.

LOL, not necessarily sarcasm... More of a James Bond fantasy... but anyway, it wasn't a serious question

I knew you weren't serious but wondered what they really were.
