About Me:
– father of 4 young kids, so Max was the only way to go
– riding includes recreational trails, travel for hunting and ice fishing
– experienced riding Can Am’s, Polaris, Honda, Artic Cat and Yamaha ranging from 400cc to 800cc
– other ‘toy’ currently in the garage is a 1989 Yamaha Enticer 400 Longtrack
First Impressions:
– questions about power of 570 engine are a thing of the past. More than enough to keep me satisfied.
– the 2 up seat is amazing. I had experience with Outlanders in the past but never rode on a 2 up seat. I’m 6’5", 240lbs and my wife says she could barely notice I was on with her. The seat is also perfect for the kids.
– did a bit of gentle trail riding in the woods. Suspension feel and travel was as expected. Biggest difference was the overall length of the Max in the tighter parts of the trail.
Next Steps:
– Superwinch Terra 35 arrived in the mail. Install should be happening this weekend.
– Maybe attachment for chainsaw / rifle. Still debating how rednecky I want to look!
– Head up north for deer hunting season in a couple weeks so it will be another chance to continue engine break-in on some logging roads.
– I need a trailer!
Question :
– As weight is shifted from side to side there is a knocking sound coming from the rear of the quad. Doesn’t matter if you’re moving or not. Any suggestions?
