I just had to share ,, Proud dad moment..
Bought this new 2014 Polaris 90 leftover , and gave it to my 3 sons for Christmas , early , as its been so warm here in WI lately… anyways , it is the same as the new Raptor 90 , other than bodywork ,, YES both POLARIS and YAMAHA outsource these from the same company.. It says AEON on motor , and are made in Taiwan. I WISH YAMAHA MADE/OUTSOURCED A LITTLE UTILITY !!!

We held our 10th consecutive Trot over Thanksgiving. The ride report is HERE

I hope you enjoy it!

This is our buddy, not named, but nonetheless cool. He’s the only one we’ve seen around the Chewelah WA and the Eastern WA area. Not sure how mean or nice they are, but he’s been within 10-15 feet of us. We see him about 90% of the time when were at the top of Calispell Mtn @6855ft. Good times. Oh, and we caught a lil bunny. Cute lil thing.

Hi all. we went to Baldwin MI and rode for a couple of days. It’s about 5 hours from where I live. This is also the 1st time I’ve been to a place like this.

Trails were fun. The Little O Trail, I believe is 41 miles and quoted as being a 50 inch trail. It’s pretty tight between trees in some spots and as mental fatigue kick in in the last couple of sections, I managed to clip my rear fenders a couple of times. It was in turns around trees. I didn’t give it quite enough throttle to get the rear end kicked around. It was a fun trail overall and apparently, not too many people wanted to be on it, because we saw a total of about 8 other riders.

I happened to have a folding saw with me, did our civic duty and cleared a couple of small fallen trees off of the trail too.

We combined the Manistee trail (46 miles) and the Lincoln Hills trail (21 miles) on Saturday. These were easy to ride "all" ORV trails. There were some fun whooped out sections and we saw a lot more people and some pretty badass machines.

We stayed at Wolf Lake Lodge. It was a small room, but got the job done. Can’t complain for $60 a night. They have Yamaha Wolverines (the atv), Honda Recons, 2 up Polaris atvs, 2 up Can Am atv, and a Razr 570. They may have more available.

You have to buy the Michigan ORV permits ($36), then you can ride on a majority of the city/county roads and the trails.
There is a map available for $3 and an app too. By the way, cell service was great up there on AT&T.

Fun trip! I will definitely go again!

Here are some pics and a couple of vids of my trip. I spent most of my time on the KTM because my brothers Outlaw 525 cracked a cylinder. I did get a couple of full days on grizz. We ended up clocking 700 miles in 6 days.

I know this method of hauling is a little unorthodox but so far I have over 3K miles hauling like this and no issues so far.

The grizz started using a lot of oil on the last day. I am looking to get some help from EHS.

Few vids from our Cooke city ride.

I like it here cause you can really stretch your legs. The third vid is pretty fun ride to a mine shaft but followed a Gade 1000 so could not really get on the gas as much as I wanted. Everywhere I slowed down in vid was to reduce the peltering of rocks I was getting in the face. Also took a hit to the frame that vid resulting in a twisted frame. Got some work to do now.
