Used my wolfsnout review

I purchased a Wolf Snout set of goggles and mask. Went on a 50 mile ride down some dusty trails ( soo line ) in 80+ degree heat. I rode in the back to give it a good and dusty test.
I am very pleased. It took some adjusting to get them to fit comfortable but once I got it down they were good to go.
The goggles seal up real nice and the dust mask worked wonderfully. I was able to breath through my mouth easily and not have gritty teeth after the ride.

thumbs up!

2012 Gen 1 Can Am 650 Max Rad Relocate

Does other brands other than BRP offer a rad relocate kit with a larger radiator than the stock size? If so I may lean that direction for even more cooling effect. I recently smoked my engine with a swamping and a plugged radiator. Have $1100 worth of parts coming from Mr. RPM for a rebuild and do not want this to happen again. I installed the XMR stealth snorkel but am going to go with full risers this time!

Bone stock 570 tackled Rock Run black trails

Saturday, June 18 was a gorgeous day in western Pennsylvania and Rock Run Recreation Park is an incredible place to ride. All I have to show for it are a few pics that do not do it justice and a very dirty sportsman. As far as the machine goes, all I can say I’m impressed. I bought my base model sportsman in 2015 for snow plowing and that was all that it had seen until yesterday. It banked tight loose corners, forded deep mud holes, walked down some hairy descents, stretched it legs on smooth straights, and climbed some insane hills, one of which was coming out of boulder field. I have no idea how I didn’t flip it backwards on boulder field, but I survived and the polaris made it seem easy, almost too easy. The only complaint of the whole day was the outrageous heat on my right leg, damn that’s hot on an 80 degree day!
