Sweet! hell of cargo to hold all those beers, not to mention hell of a windshield dont see very many of them this big :bc: 

EDIT: did you get the 1.5" charger track option ? best track IMO. 

Came with the 1.5 charger. 

The shield isn’t actually bad in person. Sled sits way higher then I expected. 

I took the bitch seat off and it’s got storage where the battery goes. Probably 2 26 oz will fit there lol

I know but she’s fuckin clean under the hood for now. 

If it doesn't smash through portages and bounce of trees you ain't even using it bud.

Looks like an ice fishing tank for sure. Congrats. :bc:

Took a quick shakedown run on the new 8fiddy tonight since she was fresh groomed, 25 miles on the clock now, fresh panned railbed and she hit 102 on the speedo with a studded 1.6", pulls really hard midrange, think I'm gonna like this girl. Just need to put my high windshield on like the murse has and I'll be ready to rock and roll. Doing trail work the rest of the weekend.

She was still pulling hard tho when you let off, right? Gotta be way more than 92 out of that sled. My '17 800 with 1.50" and 168 studs saw 110 when I let off. I was still at about 79% iirc , and there was still more left.

It was 102 on a soft fresh panned railbed at 98% breakin left. Set up trail she'll go more, it had more in her just ran out of real estate

Gotcha :bc:

Can't wait to ride mine.  We got about 9" on 11/11, but I had my Y pipe off getting ceramic coated while I had the hood off doing some other stuff to it.  Won't be going N until after the holidays, so hopefully it gets cold and freezes the ground and we get dumped on down here again.

After the holidays is when the real season starts. We have 58 and rain coming in Monday with the rain going quite deep into Quebec.

This is the earliest we've been able to go out up here. The best part being retired is not waiting for the weekend to ride

Although I was working 4, 10's and rode mostly on Friday's, I am also looking forward to being able to ride any day I like now. I ordered a new battery for my Vector and brakes and a hood cable for my son's XLT. I was hoping to get a call Thursday saying all was in but I didn't.

Hopefully Tuesday I get that call so I can put everything back together and can get both sleds fired up. Brakes, for some reason, are on back order but I haven't tried an actual Polaris dealer yet. Hoping I don't have to go that route as I know I will get hosed!!

I haven't ridden over Christmas since December of '99.  Way to much traffic. Especially when there's no snow in the lower peninsula and lots in the UP.  I'd rather work over the Christmas holidays, and bank the vacation days and get the $ and ride more in February and March.
