Title: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: strubby on January 04, 2013, 06:04:20 PM I've been out of riding for a little while after breaking my hand. I ended up selling the Outlaw during this time and contemplating on the next machine for a while. As we all know, there is lots of mud and muck here in FL, and sometimes it was no fun on the sport quad. But since I still need that 'adrenaline rush', I was looking into the Can Am Renegades and Polaris Scrambler 850 LE. After realizing the price of these machines plus a bike for my g/f reached the prices of SxS's, I went that route. Put almost 50 miles on it so far and it's a BLAST! Never had so much fun at 5A/Scottsmoor before! I can go anywhere now, still get there in a HURRY and it's just as much fun with the g/f! I actually think she's more excited about this than I am. Anyways, here's a few crappy cell phone pics (my buddy's Outlaw in the rear). Hope you guys don't mind a SxS tagging a long. ;D

New Toy Post by: little blue 300 on January 04, 2013, 06:15:15 PM Kyle, June and I will ride with you no matter what you drive!
We hope to see you at 5A soon. We are planning on going tomorrow. Larry Title: Re: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: strubby on January 04, 2013, 06:21:26 PM Thanks Larry! The g/f loves riding with me even more now, so she will prob be out next time. I am on the road working again for a few weeks but I will let you know when I get back and we will do a 5A ride. Also plan on going to Mud Muckers the end of this month!
Title: Re: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: little blue 300 on January 04, 2013, 06:38:35 PM Hey, you weren't out at 5A on Tuesday were you?
I was heading in to the parking lot when something like that came up behind me really fast and I kicked my Grizzly 550 in and was doing pretty good until I left up as we we almost to the parking lot. Two young guys were in it and they didn't leave up on it and passed me at the parking lot. I tried to see who was in it, but they wouldn't look at me. I guess they were feeling really good beating an old man! rolback1 Larry Title: Re: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: strubby on January 04, 2013, 08:05:32 PM Haha no that wasn't me. We went out to 5A Sunday evening and my g/f (Samantha) was with me. My buddy Shawn was on his Outlaw. Where I would normally 'go around' on the Outlaw, I went right through over and over in the RZR. Shawn got stuck several times, covered in mud and soaked. We were clean as could be, and warm!

Title: Re: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: strubby on January 04, 2013, 10:01:43 PM That's exactly how I feel. I road with mud machines on my 450 for a long time. Now at least I can join in on the fun in both worlds!

Title: Re: I hope I'm Still Welcome Here! New Toy Post by: strubby on January 09, 2013, 07:01:20 PM This thing pulls through the muck great but you are right, there's no picking up and moving this machine in the mud! I have arched a-arms and arched radius rods on the way for 4" more clearance and will be getting a winch. Then you guys can get stuck all you want and I'll just winch you out ;D
