    550 Indy LXT 144

    Currently riding a 2012 600 IQ LXT 2-up. Love the sled but looking to trade it in on 2 550 Indy LXT 2 ups due to a growing family. I like the 144 inch track and the "lower class" of 2 up seat and backrest isn't a concern for me. My question is if I will be disapointed going to a 550 fan with...

    Toddlers on a boat

    Hello all, Just looking for some opinions. At what age did you take your kids on their first boat ride? I've got twin boys 15 months old and just pulled the boat out of storage and was thinking of taking them on their maiden voyage. Don't expect it to be to long - maybe a lap around the...

    Don't forget about the covers

    Just a thought as I was summerizing the sleds with a tear in my beer. I usually wash the cloth covers at the laundromat - did it at the house once and the wife tried to kill me. Air dry them, and spray on a little camp dry. I have also started using just the press on patches for the holes...

    Coleman UTV

    So I went window shopping at Cabelas last night. Found out they are now selling tractors and got rid of their Kawasaki ATV line-up. At least in Richfield. Anyways, they are selling Coleman ATV/UTVs. For the most part they looked pretty impressive. For the price of $8,399 you get a 700 EFI...

    Fuel Storage/Carrier

    I'm getting tired of 5 gallon cans and dumping fuel all over myself in the garage. What does everyone use to fill up their sleds at home. I live in an Ethanol area or I would jus top them off at the station. I was looking at a fule caddy but the reviews on them are less then stellar. Also...

    2011 Polaris IQ LXT 2-Up Carbides

    Finally wore down the stock 4" enough to replace them. It has always cornered poorly - especially with 2 people on it. Limiter straps and suspension are adjusted and the track is not studded. Should I go with a 6" or jump right to the 8"? Bergstrom's aren't an option due to time. Thanks a...

    2011 Polaris IQ LXT 600 Liquid - Fuel and Chanicase

    Two really simple questions I hope. How do I get to the jamb nut to adjust the chain tension on this sled? I can't get me fat hands in there to do it. Do I need to take off the exhaust? Also, I spent the $60 and bought a new fuel filter but can't find it on the sled to change it. Where is...

    2000 R&R 4-Place Enclosed Trailer Value

    What would be a good price on a 2000 R&R 4 Place Enclosed. It needs new rubber but overall in good condition. Nothing fancy on the interior but it does have two doors on the V-Nose. Thanks. Mad-dogg

    2 Stoke Motors and Lubrication

    Yep - another oil thread. After reading ALL of the threads on oil - types, additives, etc. and all of the treads on motors burning down due to lean conditions - add oil to the gas, don't add oil, etc. I have a question. Before oil injection was invented, or the 4 stroke motor for that matter...
