| My Grizzly was wearing out. Lots of thing needing repaired or replaced. It had been relegated to a backup role and was no longer good at that! Coral's Griz was needing some time, effort and parts. So... Let's just see what I can get on a trade in. A couple of days later and let's say "Good-Bye".  Her new Quad. 50 cc's of Pure Polaris Power!!!  With a matching hoodie!  Actually, I got a 2nd Canned Ham. 650 XT  | |

| Playing in the rain... Today I installed my VIP-Air windshield, wheel spacers and A-arm skids on my 800.  Cockpit view of the windshield and where the GPS ball mounts go.  I had a left over Popo windshield that I am going to put on Coral's 650. I am very impressed with how well it looks!  Now I just need to figure out how to mount it. I will likely try to mount it just like the VIP-Air does.  | |

| Both are nice looking for the Northern weather....
Had one on the Honda Foreman a couple times
but it wasn't beefy enough to leave on trailering.

| Yep. I broke one that way too. That's one of the reasons I like enclosed trailers. Road salt is kept off em. Flatbed's are handy to wash em up.  What a mess. Had to use a knife to cut it off.  | |

| New ITP Rims and "Old" Popo Bighorns for the 650. Factory tire and rim in the middle. Rims look very similar, but old is 12" and new is 14".   Both quads are in the 49.5" width bracket. That's about 1.5" wider than I like for MI trails. But at least I'm not rubbing the tie rod ends anymore!  | |

| Well, today I worked on the 800 & 650. Got the Symtec Hot Grips installed, not wired. Got the Rigid LEDs installed, not wired.  Got the fuel cell mounts installed. I used the bumper-to-rack, existing bolt hole for the front bolt.   Got the hot grips installed on Coral's as well. And of course I had to put the most important option on her bike!!!  Looking GOOD, if I do say so myself! | |

| Very sharp looking rigs. You are very detailed with your option installs, too. Nice! What brand of tires are on the red Outie? Congrats to you both!  | |
